Champions League: Torn Bayern Licking Wounds And Talking About Future
Torn Bayern Munich: Bayern Munich's post-match banquet had a sombre tone after the club's second defeat in its three matches of the 2024-25 UEFA Champions League 2024-25 season, and the loss dropped Bayern to the 23rd place in the competition's new standings. Coach Vincent Kompany's entertaining but risky style is now under scrutiny, and the goal of reaching the 2025 final in Munich's own stadium seems distant. Tactical changes appear inevitable.
Weeks of praise for Kompany have given way to disappointment. "We lacked the necessary determination," goalkeeper Manuel Neuer said. Midfielder Joshua Kimmich added, "There was too much disorganisation in our play." Alarm bells are ringing despite club chairman Jan-Christian Dreesen's call for unity. "In a situation like this, it's typical for FC Bayern to come together and find solutions," Dreesen said.
German media were harsh, describing the game as "a lesson for Bayern" and pointing out a "class difference." After just one win in the last five matches, the consensus is that while players and leaders support Kompany's strategy, the team lost all control in Barcelona, reports Xinhua.
