WOAH! Karlsruhe try to copy Vidal. Saved by the post.

What worries me is that it's the ONLY friendly we'll play before the Bundesliga resumes. A year ago, after 3 friendlies we still lost the Bundesliga restart 4-1 until we found our feet again. This time we'll have had just one match to prepare, and to make it worse we are sucking. The draw is unfair for Karlsruhe who have created far more chances. As I write this, Neuer makes another good save.

Costa down. I repeat, Costa down.

Dammit. That same part of the pitch has now seen Rafinha getting injured.

If I didn't know any better, Robben looks like he's match fixing.

Dorsch (#30) is on for the injured Rafinha. Kimmich moves to RB.

I agree we need at least 2 friendlies before the restart, I'm surprised we didn't play any in Doha even if it was just one against an Arabian side for money/ promotion etc. Maybe the fact that we play our first game after the restart on a Friday has thrown off the schedule and meant it wasn't feasible for us to play a 2nd friendly when we came back from Doha. If we had played next Saturday instead then another Friendly on Tuesday would work a lot better.

Rafinha is injuried ...I guess that bruno guys coming earlier than expected

Pantovic on for Coman now.

Stupid mistake by Boateng, and then he goes and gets red and concedes a penalty. Perhaps a bit harsh, because it happened outside of the box.

Boateng off WTF?

penalty and red card for Boateng

Did we just get a red card

Let's be honest, Karlsruhe deserve their 2-1 even though that was never a penalty.

What a joke of a match. Everyone except Kimmich and Neuer has been uninterested.

Absolutely not a penalty, but kudos to the ref for giving the obvious red, which many refs wouldn't give in a friendly.

Hopefully this all comes down to the lack of motivation, and we'll play better from next week on.

For a few season now, I've been wondering if leaving the cold winter in Germany and moving to the sunny training camp is a good decision. It's becoming kind of a tendency now that we are playing terrible after coming back.
