  WHAT HAPPENED?

  Coman had to be helped off the pitch in Bayern's 2-0 win over Koln in a major setback for Tuchel's team. The Frenchman withdrew from the action after just 50 minutes and was replaced by Jamal Musiala in a worrying sight for Bayern fans. The 27-year-old has a supposed muscle injury and, to Tuchel's sorrow, may miss the rest of the campaign.

  WHAT TUCHEL SAID

  Speaking after the game, Tuchel told : "The big downside to the whole game is the injury to Kingsley Coman. It makes me very sad because I know how hard he worked and how important he is for us. First Serge Gnabry is out, then he and Leroy Sane are doubts [for Wednesday]."

• THE BIGGER PICTURE

  With Coman definitely out for the game on Wednesday, Bayern's injury problems out-wide are deepened. Tuchel explained that Sane and Gnabry are touch-and-go with regards to their availability and will leave Bayern sweating on their fitness. Arsenal visit Munich in the Champions League quarter-final second-leg on Wednesday with the tie in the balance after last week's 2-2 draw.
