Julian Nagelsmann's announcement before the top game was clear.

"If we don't win, the championship fight is probably over," said the RB Leipzig coach before the game against Bayern Munich.

Leipzig lost 0: 1 (0: 1) to Bayern and failed to bring tension to the fight for the title.

Seven game days before the end of the season, Munich have seven points ahead of the second RB.

A head start that Hansi Flick's team will probably not give up.

Bayern showed in Leipzig with a concentrated performance that they can win without Robert Lewandowski.

The striker, who has already scored 34 goals this season, will be absent for at least four weeks with a ligament stretch in his right knee.

Flick replaced the world footballer with Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting.

“Choupo had 14 days to gather strength and train well.

He is in great shape and he absolutely deserves it, ”Flick said before the game on Sky.

Choupo-Moting and his teammates let the Leipziger in the first quarter of an hour.

The Saxons had significantly more possession of the ball, but without developing good chances.

In the course of the first half Bayern put their problems in the build-up game and once again showed that they are simply there when it matters.

Kimmich opened the game with a long dream pass to Thomas Müller, who danced out his opponent in the penalty area and put the ball in the back of the defense.

There was Leon Goretzka, who shot the ball untenable to make it 1-0 into the Leipzig goal (38th minute).

A well-deserved half-time lead for Bayern, who simply acted smarter than the hosts.

Also in the second half the Leipzig started better.

This time they had really good chances, but Marcel Sabitzer (49th) and Dani Olmo (52nd and 53rd) missed the opportunity to equalize.

In the first quarter of an hour after the break, the Leipzig had a goal shot ratio of eight to zero.

A hit did not jump out of it.

Bayern took the pace out of the game in the closing stages and brought the lead to the finish.
