Those were three important points. We needed them today. It was a complicated game. Benfica didn't want to play football with us. They only wanted to defend and they did that with great structure. However, we kept the pressure on. Once more we didn't give any chances away, and we were rewarded. 1-0 wins are the best ones. We never said we don't learn from mistakes and past games, on the contrary, we observe everything with great scrutiny.
You simply can't show this incredible intensity every three days. However, the game control and the dominance we're consistently showing with two central defenders in outstanding form in the past days and weeks, that really is very good.
Eberl has been overtly positive after just about every Bayern Munich game - and most of the time, his pragmatic feelings have been on-point. Still, the Bavarians have more dangerous tests on the horizon and the team will get a chance to prove that Eberl's belief has been warranted.
