Tottenham Hotspur v Bayern Muenchen - Audi Cup 2019 Final Photo by PressFocus/MB Media/Getty ImagesKingsley Coman had to go off after only being on the pitch for a few minutes in the Audi Cup Final against Spurs.Kingsley Coman was only on the pitch for five minutes before he was in clear discomfort in the Audi Cup Final against North-East London side Tottenham Hotspurs.

What kicker says is not law, but it does reassure that it didn’t look too serious. With the naked eye, it didn’t look great but it was clear that he was walking without any clear signs of distress.Kovac confirmed that it was, hopefully, not too serious:Niko #Kovac on Kingsley #Coman: "We hope that it's not too bad and that he'll be back in the next few days. He picked up a knock, usually quite painful."#AudiCup pic.twitter.com/IUT2ayJpiu— FC Bayern English (@FCBayernEN) July 31, 2019BFW Analysis:Depth is key.Both Coman and Gnabry have picked up knocks in two days. Though it might not be serious, the fact that the season hasn’t started, and we are already writing news about possible injuries is worrying. Injuries will always happen, to any team. Bayern’s squad needs more players.Read more...
