Bayern Munich travelled to Spain to take on FC Barcelona…but this was not your older brother’s Barca.
Hansi Flick had his team aggressive, creative, and relentless (shades of his tenure at Bayern Munich) and maybe most importantly, Flick had his squad prepared to take advantage of Bayern Munich’s iffy backline — and that is exactly what the Catalans did to snare a 4-1 victory.
Needless to say, there is a TON to talk about, so let’s do it. Here is what we have on tap for the Bavarian Podcast Works — Postgame Show:
- A look at the starting XI.
- A rundown of the scoring and substitutions.
- Neither coach backed down from their aggressive tactics.
- Why Bayern Munich’s lack of awareness and discipline on the backline is (and has been a problem).
- Missing on Hansi Flick this summer is a decision that will continue to be rued.
- Yup, we are Frustrated, Inc.
- Where does Bayern Munich go from here?
