Bayern Munich president Uli Hoeneß has insisted manager Niko Kovau010d will still be in charge of the Bavarians for their penultimate UEFA Champions League group stage encounter against Benfica, despite the Croat's side squandering a two-goal lead to draw 3-3 against relegation-threatened Fortuna Düsseldorf at the Allianz Arena.
The stalemate left Die Roten in fifth, nine points behind leaders and rivals Borussia Dortmund who remain unbeaten in the league, and piled the pressure on the under-fire Croat after three successive Bundesliga games without a victory.
Goals from Niklas Süle and Thomas Müller had given the Bavarians a comfortable two-goal cushion, but Dodi Lukebakio halved the deficit before half-time.
