Welcome to the FC Bayern Campus Round Up, where the matches of Bayern Munich’s U-17 and U-23 squads are recapped, line ups are provided and the highlights to each match are hyperlinked on top of their respective score lines. The U-19s did not play a match this weekend, so they are excluded from this round up. Information on the U-23 and U-17 matches is provided by the official FC Bayern website here and here, respectively. If you wish to learn more about the format of the U-17 and U-19’s youth leagues, you can find more info here. Additionally, none of these matches can be viewed in full length without an FCBayernTV subscription. Without further ado, here is the round up:
Bayern lineup (with subs): Klanac – Manuba (46. Yanda), Dettoni, Puljić, Dalpiaz – Ličina (46. Degraf), Nasrawe (46. Della Rovere), Deziel Jr., Darboe (80. Mergner) – Meier (80. Schuhbauer), Heinz.
Goals: 1:0 Nitaj (10.), 2:0 Dettoni (42. / Eigentor), 3:0 Herger (60.).
Unavailable players: Steve Breitkreuz, Javier Fernández, Younes Aitamer, Roko Mijatović, Felipe Chàvez, Louis Richter, Michael Scott, Benno Schmitz, David Heindl, Kurt Rüger
Unused players: Bärtl – Binder.
How much more can be said that has not been said already? To see this writer’s thoughts on the U-23s, read the last two week’s entries into the Campus Round Up. All that can be said is that they cannot seem to win a match at the moment and are just 6 points clear of the relegation zone. Meanwhile, two more players in Rüger and Heindl got injured, adding to the obscene injury list. It is not looking good.
Bayern lineup (with subs): Podar-Stiube – Ajayi, Pucci, Zogaj, El-Chaar (77. Horvarth/85. Sindi) – Danioko (85. El Allali), Pavic, Horoszczak (63. Babl), Hentcho Nseke (63. Turbic) – Schaff (77. Kerschberger), von Taube
Goals: 1:0 Hentcho Nseke (3.), 2:0 von Taube (14.), 3:0 Hentcho Nseke (18.).
With 5 games of the 14 game preliminary stage remaining, the Bavarians have managed to rebound from last week’s embarrassing loss and sit 5 points clear of 3rd place with a game in hand. Qualification for the next round seems pretty secure at the moment.
