"In terms of experience between them and us, there's a huge difference because of the games they have played, because of the age. Even with that, we competed in the right way in this stadium against this team. I came here before with different teams, it's so difficult to come here and compete, you can't come here and dominate for 90 minutes," said Maresca (as captured by @iMiaSanMia)."
"Bayern Munich hosted Chelsea in one of the most intriguing matchups on the second round of Matchday 1 in the Champions League's League Phase. The Bavarians were able to tough out a rugged 3-1 victory in a match that was not all that pleasing to the eye. Harry Kane's brace and an own goal from Chelsea paced Bayern Munich. While Chelsea did some good things (including a terrific first half counterattack for a goal),"
Chelsea fielded a relatively young squad that lacked the big-game experience of Bayern Munich, a gap that coach Enzo Maresca highlighted after the match. Bayern secured a rugged 3-1 Champions League win, powered by Harry Kane's brace and a Chelsea own goal. Chelsea created quality moments, including a first-half counterattack goal, but could not sustain the intensity and tired as the game progressed. The match provided Chelsea with valuable experience of competing under pressure on the road in Europe. Coverage for the fixture includes starting XI analysis, scoring and substitution breakdowns, and final tactical takeaways.
