Undoubtedly, the highlight of Bayern Munich’s long-awaited clash with Leverkusen was Aleksandar Pavlović’s rocket of an equalizer from over thirty yards out, and the passionate celebration right after.
Speaking about the game, Pavlović too expressed a touch of remorse for not getting as much from the game as the team wanted: “We had so many chances and didn’t reward ourselves. The last touch was missing. We obviously wanted all 3 points. But I’m happy with the performance, we dominated them and barely conceded any chances.”
In particular, when asked about his goal, Pavlović talked about how he felt after the ball went in and he kissed the Bayern badge: “I was very happy and emotional after my goal. I stayed positive [after the misplaced pass that led to the corner] and tried to motivate my teammates. Overall I think we’re going in the right direction and we’ll continue to work.” (via @iMiaSanMia)
Fans were ecstatic after that goal and subsequent performance that allowed Bayern to pick up a point in the end, and will sure hope for more such performances from Bavaria’s very own in the near future.
