Bavarian Loan Works: Schenk shows out against Bayern in Pokal, Stanišić and Nübel leap frog Bayern in standings

Bayern Munich loanees were very busy this week. Nübel kept a clean sheet against Köln and now both Stuttgart and Leverkusen are above Bayern in the Bundesliga standings. Tillman is finally getting consistent playing time with PSV — he even got a goal and an assist. Perhaps the best story was Johannes Schenk playing against Bayern in the Pokal match this week. He stood out, even though Bayern walked away with a 4-0 win. There was also a smattering of other goals and assists throughout the leagues and another loanee facing Bayern.

Stuttgart will host Wolfsburg on Saturday.

Josip Stanišić – Bayer O4 Leverkusen

Stanišić was on the bench for most of the match, only coming on in the 86th minute with his team already up 3-0 on the road to Mainz. He didn’t record any stat of significance. The match ended at that 3-0 score and Leverkusen jumped to the top of the table.

Tillman finally had his breakout match on Saturday against FC Volendam. He earned his first start for the club and played the full 90 minutes. With his team up 1-0 right after halftime, Tillman tallied his first assist on what would become the game-winning goal. After PSV conceded a goal to make it 2-1, Tillman shut the door with a stoppage time goal. With six points this week, PSV charges to the top of the Eredivisie table.

Johannes Schenk – Preußen Münster

Schenk finally got his chance to play for Münster and it could not have come at a better time: a cup game at home against his parent club! Reports say it was only due to the first-string goalie getting hurt. Although he conceded four goals, he played very well! He saved five shots on goal and made some great decisions. It was great to see him come together after the match with his Bayern teammates. They all seemed happy to see him, especially the younger players like Franz Krätzig, who both scored on Schenk and then traded shirts with after the match.
