Bundesliga Tactics Talk: Round 29

An absolutely wild weekend over on the German Bundesliga beat leaves us with new league-leaders with just five matchdays remaining! The title race could not be hotter after Borussia Dortmund finally managed to take care of business and overtake record champions Bayern München after Thomas Tuchel’s Bavarians lost. Our customary comprehensive weekend recap feature covers that along with everything else with coverage of all nine fixtures. Bayern, Mainz, Hertha, and Union Berlin receive draw-ups this time. The “tactical focus” section rounding out the column belongs, appropriately, to Dortmund’s big win over Frankfurt. Come along for another journey-of-intrigue across the Bundesrepublik!
