Bayern Munich coach misses match after testing positive

Bayern Munich coach Julian Nagelsmann tested positive for the coronavirus despite being fully vaccinated, the club said.

Nagelsmann missed Bayern’s 4-0 win over Benfica in the Champions League on Wednesday after showing signs of what the club said at the time was a “flu-like infection,” but sent instructions to his assistants remotely.

Bayern’s next game on Saturday is at home to Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga.
