Montreal Impact’s first-ever coach in MLS has parted company with the Red Bull organization following RB Leipzig’s sixth defeat in 14 Bundesliga matches this season.
Timo Baumgartl’s 56th minute winner yesterday for sixth-placed Union Berlin left Leipzig languishing in mid-table and appears to have sealed Marsch’s fate, only days before he was to face Manchester City in the Champions League.
Marsch has been released with immediate effect, assistant coach Achim Beierlorzer taking charge of the team for the visit of the English champions, a tie they may need to take at least a point from, to ensure Europa League qualification.
