"Karl has undoubtedly deserved the attention he getting. His performances defy his age and he has held his own against any opposition Kompany has deployed him against. Against Freiburg he was drifting through the opposition's midfield and defence making unstoppable connections. Scoring the first goal of Bayern and assisting Michael Olise for the second, he was key to open the Frieburg def"
"After the Freiburg game, Karl was asked whether he had the World Cup in the back of his head as he went into the games. "I'm not focused on that at all. I'm just trying to perform, and then we'll see what Julian [Nagelsmann] does with me. I'm just trying to give everything here. Hopefully it works out, but if it doesn't, I just have to keep going" answered Karl (as captured by @iMiaSanMia) giving off a rather focused state of mind."
Bayern Munich defeated SC Freiburg as youngster Lennart Karl produced a brilliant performance, scoring and assisting. Karl's versatility, technical ability and self-confidence position him as a potential energetic super-sub for Julian Nagelsmann and a viable World Cup candidate. The national team has shown inconsistent performances, creating opportunities for impactful young players. Nagelsmann has experience integrating youth and may value a player who can dribble past opponents and inject energy. Karl expressed focus on performing rather than World Cup selection. Karl's age-defying displays, composure against various opponents, and decisive contributions underline his growing importance to Bayern.
