"It's up to us, and we're not going to give it up. To be honest, with what I believe is an eleven-point lead, we're not going to let it slip away. No one's ever squandered that, and it's going to stay that way. Today, mentality was the deciding factor in the end."
"We struggled for a long time. It was a very physical game, especially in the first half, very disjointed, with lots of stoppages, set pieces, and fouls. We couldn't find a real rhythm."
Bayern Munich secured a 3-2 victory against Borussia Dortmund in an away fixture, extending their Bundesliga lead to eleven points. The match was characterized by physical play and constant interruptions that disrupted rhythm and momentum for both teams. With 40 tackles and 30 interceptions, neither side allowed the other breathing room. Despite struggling to find fluidity, particularly in the first half, Bayern demonstrated superior mentality to overcome Dortmund's desperate resistance. Midfielder Joshua Kimmich emphasized that mentality proved decisive, noting Bayern's determination to maintain their commanding lead in the title race.
