Bayern Munich coach Thomas Tuchel explains why Matthijs de Ligt was benched vs. Bayer Leverkusen
Briefly

"Yes, he is having a difficult moment. The fight for the place is really strong. He had a bit of back pain at the weekend and was treated in the hotel. I then decided not to start him and not to take the risk. Upa also couldn't play 90 minutes against Leverkusen, so I needed 4 centre-backs. That's why I made the decision. Matthijs is a fighter, has established himself at Ajax and Juventus. It's a competition for places. We need him," Tuchel said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia)."
