FC Bayern vs. Mainz live today: Munich take “zero fives” apart
70th minute: Gooooorrrrr!!! FC Bayern - Mainz 05 7:1, goalscorer: Kane. My dear! The Munich team are now literally overwhelming the guests. After a corner, Dier heads the ball into the box. Zentner deflects to the side, but Kane is there and nods off. Referee Ittrich briefly checks whether the English superstar was offside - and awards the goal.

66th minute: Gooooorrrrr!!! FC Bayern - Mainz 05 6:1, goalscorer: Gnabry. Slapstick goal from the Swabian! In his Bundesliga comeback since the end of December, the outside attacker scores directly. Chip ball in front of the goal. The Mainz defense misjudged itself. Gnabry obviously wants to take the ball with his back to the goal with his outside instep. But receiving the ball turns into a shot - the ball slips between the legs. It is the first goal of the season for Gnabry.

The young and highly talented Gruda tries to set accents on the right side.
But the Munich team is very good defensively.
47th minute: Gooooorrrrr!!! FC Bayern - Mainz 05 4:1, goalscorer: Müller. And the lively goal-scoring continues straight after the break. Guerreiro passes through the box for Musiala, who makes Widmer look old with two quick movements. The national player plays in a good temper in front of the second post, where Müller crosses and only has to hold out his foot.

45th minute: Dangerous!

35th minute: Change at Mainz:
The 33-year-old warrior Guilavogui has to leave the field injured.
The Swiss Edimilson Fernandes is new to him.
FC Bayern vs Mainz live today: Amiri with the goal
31st minute: Goal! FC Bayern - Mainz 05 2:1, goalscorer: Amiri. The connection seems to come out of nowhere! During a standard, Müller clearly opens the door next to Goretzka because the veteran moves to the side. Amiri can shoot the ball into the top left corner from about 20 meters. No chance for Neuer, who is upset about his wall.
29th minute: Penalty for Bayern? But not! Bayern attacks quickly again. Diagonal ball to Kane, who shoots straight into the box. His opponent has his arm up and is shot. However, the VAR intervenes. Referee Ittrich looks at the scene on the monitor and takes back his decision. Because: Van den Berg is clearly shot in the back, not in the arm.
27th minute: Kimmich!
Technically clean attack.
Musiala plays on the right wing, where Kimmich comes rushing.
Sané takes part and ignores the slip, so that Kimmich can take full advantage at the corner of the penalty area.
The Swabian puts the ball flat one meter next to the second post.
25th minute: Bayern controls this game at will.
Regardless of the quality of the Munich team, Mainz is proving emphatically why this season the only goal is to avoid relegation.
FC Bayern vs. Mainz live today: billiards goal for the Munich team
19th minute: Gooooorrrrr!!! FC Bayern - Mainz 05 2-0, goalscorer: Goretzka. Billiards goal for Munich! The people of Mainz are not at all involved! After a foul on Müller, Bayern receive a free kick on the right wing. Müller isn't standing properly yet and the guests haven't sorted themselves out, so Kimmich quickly executes the standard with a chip ball. Kane heads into the middle of the post, from which the ball literally bounces onto Goretzka's thigh - and from there behind the line.
18th minute: Change at Bayern:
The Portuguese Guerreiro replaces the injured Davies at the back left in the back four.
16th minute: Bitter!
Davies has to be substituted early after a collision.
Apparently the Canadian injured his teeth.
He will be replaced immediately.
Get well soon!

FC Bayern vs Mainz live today: Kane takes the Munich lead
13th minute: Gooooorrrrr!!! FC Bayern - Mainz 05 1-0, goalscorer: Kane. The Munich team takes their opponents by surprise. After a set piece from Mainz, Bayern launch a quick counterattack via Müller and Sané. Fine diagonal ball to Musiala at the second post. The youngster attracts two defenders from the “zero fives” and goalkeeper Zentner, while Kane moves completely freely in the middle. The cross pass comes at exactly the right moment - goal!
8th minute: Treacherous!
Again Sané comes from the right - and the 33-year-old Guilavogui can't keep up.
Keeper Zentner punches the sharp cross into the middle, where Musiala almost gets the ball.
7th minute: The guests can gain some breathing room and win several duels in a row in midfield.
England super striker Kane is once again working a lot towards the back.

The Munich team tried very high pressing right from the start.
FCB is playing well.

1st minute: Kick-off in Munich!
FC Bayern vs. Mainz live today: “Zerofives” need points to avoid relegation
Update from March 9th, 3:25 p.m.:
FC Bayern wants the final turnaround and prove that they won't just give away the Bundesliga.
For Mainz these are extremely important points in the fight against relegation.
The tension is almost palpable!
It's about to start in Fröttmaning!
Update from March 9th, 3:10 p.m.:
Is the game against Mainz 05 the last chance for Bayern to send another signal in the championship duel?
Bayer Leverkusen, who have 64 points in the Bundesliga and are ten points ahead, only have to play against 1899 Hoffenheim tomorrow, Sunday (5:30 p.m.).
With a win in the Allianz Arena today, Munich could reduce the gap - at least temporarily - to seven points
FC Bayern vs Mainz live today: Serge Gnabry is back in the squad
Update from March 9th, 2:55 p.m.:
Serge Gnabry is at least back in the Bayern squad this Saturday.
The attacker made his comeback after a long injury break in Bayern's 3-0 win against Lazio Rome, which almost went unnoticed.
The 28-year-old Swabian had previously been out since mid-December due to a persistent muscle injury.
His future is also uncertain given the impending upheaval in Munich, and this also applies to a possible participation in the home European Championships in 2024. “We have to look at him.
There's not much point in putting pressure on him.
We let him play now so that he gets it as a reward and incentive to make the drudgery worth it.
I hope we can give him more minutes,” said FCB coach Tuchel at the press conference before the Mainz game.
Update from March 9th, 2:35 p.m.:
The two biggest surprises in the Munich starting eleven are likely to be that Mathys Tel doesn't play from the start again.
The 18-year-old Frenchman scored a dream goal in the recent 2-2 draw in Freiburg.
And that Konrad Laimer will probably replace the suspended Aleksandar Pavlovic on the six, and not Joshua Kimmich, who will probably play as a right-back again.

FC Bayern vs Mainz live today: Munich are working on a new team
Update from March 9th, 2:15 p.m.:
FC Bayern has not yet completely written off the Bundesliga championship in the duel with Bayer Leverkusen, and yet the new sports director Max Eberl and his team are already working hard in the background on the new Munich team the coming season.
According to the supervisory board and former CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, ex-Bayern striker Joshua Zirkzee is also an issue again on Säbener Straße.
The 22-year-old attacker is causing a sensation with FC Bologna in the Italian Serie A.
“I remember my last year as CEO.
He played well and when Flick put him on the pitch he always scored decisive goals, not the fourth or fifth of the game.
He won important games for us,” said Rummenigge in an interview with
Gazzetta dello Sport
about the young Dutch striker.

Harsh criticism of Joshua Kimmich: Tennis legend Boris Becker dishes out
Although the German record champions are at least in the quarter-finals of the premier class after their victory against the Italian capital club, the discussions about the team in the Bundesliga Croesus are not ceasing.
Before the game against Mainz, the German tennis legend sharply criticized the 29-year-old Swabian Joshua Kimmich.

“Now I’m not enough of an expert to judge whether he’s the right man for Bayern on the right wing,” said the former Wimbledon winner in the “Triple – the Schüttflix football talk” program on Sky: “But: As He failed six times at Bayern and in the national team.
Kimmich has to think about that and so does the club.”
The 56-year-old further criticized the fact that Kimmich has rarely spoken publicly about explosive issues at FCB and the DFB team recently.
“If I'm sent to the right back as a six, then I'll be the first one to stand in front of the camera and say what I think about it.
At the time of the former Bayern icons there would have been noise in the forest,” said Becker.
FC Bayern against Mainz 05 in the live ticker: Can the Munich team start a series?
Both Munich coach Thomas Tuchel, who injured his big toe against Lazio, and his predecessor and national coach Julian Nagelsmann want to constantly use Kimmich as a right-back in the future instead of as a defensive midfielder.
Will he also play in this position this afternoon against the “zero fives” who are in danger of relegation?
After the disappointing 2-2 draw in Freiburg, the goal of the entire team is to start a series.
