“Only full throttle”: Kimmich demands Bayern show their quality against Dortmund

The “Klassiker” is almost here - and FC Bayern captain Joshua Kimmich (Manuel Neuer is injured) demands the best performance from his team:

“Today it’s full throttle for us,” Kimmich declared before kick-off. “The normal weeks have done us good. We were able to fully focus on our game, improve it, and work on our qualities - and that’s what we want to bring onto the pitch and beat Dortmund.”

The midfielder’s comments reflect a renewed sense of clarity in Munich. After a demanding spell packed with fixtures, Bayern have benefited from a more structured training rhythm, allowing them to fine-tune tactical details and sharpen their strengths.

For Kimmich, the equation is simple: intensity, focus, and conviction. Against their rival, Bayern are not just aiming to perform - they want to make a statement.

With both pride and crucial points on the line, the tone has been set. Full throttle.
