TOUR EVENT
The final overthrow of the champion 2006 . Until Saturday night, Bayern still tried to pose as a participant in the golden race. But in Stuttgart, the meaninglessness of sweet dreams about the title became completely obvious. The Munich team did not find a single argument to confront their rivals, encouraged to reach the final of the Cup of the country. The pill swallowed by the team of Ottmar Hitzfeld is bitter. Defeat from southerners neighbors dramatically reduced the chances of the Bavarians even in third place. It is likely that the Champions League 2007/08 will be held without one of its regulars. This season for the “Bavaria” - a failure in all directions. In the Cup of the country - relegation to the 1/8 finals. In the Champions League - in the quarterfinals. Unstable performances in the Bundesliga also lead to a logical result.
HERO TOUR
Cacau, Stuttgart striker. Only 93 seconds it took the Brazilian to knock out a double, “Bavaria”. The first goal, however, was a gift from Munich defender Lell. Trying to defuse the situation, he got into Cacau, and the ball from the Stuttgart bounced into the net. Before the guests recovered from the shock, the opponent’s joy doubled. This time Kakau shockingly responded to Khedira's flanking cross. Thanks to the double, the South American brought the number of goals in the championship to 13. Mario Gomez is sick, but his sniper business lives on ...
TOUR FAILURE
Timo Rost, an energy midfielder. In the first half of the match with Schalke, the East German club successfully restrained the onslaught of the leader. And soon after the break, he had a real chance to wipe his blue nose. However, Rost's blow hit the post. Ten minutes later, it became clear that fortune finally quarreled with Timo. Interrupting the flank transmission of Hamit Altıntop, he cut the ball into his own net.
TOUR SENSATION
The victory of “Arminia” in Wolfsburg. Like a week ago, the tour did without loud sensations. To the local level surprises include the home failure of the “wolves”. Their leader Marcelinho scored the 5th goal after his winter return from Turkey. But this “Wolfsburg” did not help. The guests from Bielefeld, who have nowhere to retreat, won thanks to the "joker" Wyhnyarek. The Pole scored a decisive goal four minutes before the final whistle. And he pulled the "Arminia" out of the relegation zone.
TREND
The three leaders continued the winning streak. In February and March, aspirants to the throne were giving away points. But in April, as if tired of such charity, they took up the mind. For the “Schalke” and “Bremen” victory last weekend were the third in a row, for “Stuttgart” - the fourth. As a result, the champion candidates, as before, were lined up with two points in the ledge. And the closer the finish ribbon, the more this arrangement suits the team from Gelsenkirchen. “Werder Bremen” was displaced by pole position, beating Friday “Alemannia”. However, the "blue" took just a day to restore the status quo.
