""We've already talked about this topic last year and said that we have to stay calm. We then kept 8 clean sheets in a row, I think. We've always shown a reaction to setbacks, and now we have to do it again. We have to show a reaction as defenders, as a team - there's no better time than Wednesday to do it.""
""Whatever Kompany tried to adjust and install in the player's mentality, he had better do it quickly. The last few goals Bayern conceded have shared the same themes: a set-piece scramble or a rapid counter, taking advantage of the aggressive pressing structure.""
""Especially in transition, Bayern feels vulnerable when facing pacy, direct attacking players. The situation is much worse without Dayot Upamecano on the pitch, as seen against Heidenheim.""
Bayern Munich's defense has been criticized following a poor performance against Heidenheim, where they conceded three goals. This marks the third consecutive match with similar defensive issues. Despite scoring enough to secure points, the team must improve defensively to succeed against PSG. Coach Vincent Kompany expressed confidence in the team's ability to respond, recalling a previous streak of clean sheets. The defense has shown vulnerabilities, particularly in transitions and set-pieces, exacerbated by the absence of Dayot Upamecano.
