"Crazy weather, crazy match, crazy result ... Nothing decided yet!

Bayern Munich legend Bastian Schweinsteiger tried to be positive Wednesday night on Twitter after the surprise defeat of his club (2-3) against PSG.

At halftime (1-2), the former German metronome thought that Bayern would achieve its domination.

In vain.

Qualification for the quarter-finals of the Champions League is of course still in the strings of the Germans.

But after the meeting, in the mixed zone, the messages of hope still had a very bitter taste.

Crazy weather, crazy game, crazy result ... Nothing decided yet!

"We should have scored a lot more goals," said striker Thomas Müller, author of the equalizer at 2-2 (60th).

“Of course, we can talk about the goals conceded but if you win 6-3 or 5-3, there is nothing to say (...) If we had shown the killer instinct that characterizes us, the match would have been different.

We can only blame ourselves and now we must make up for lost time.

Difficult to prove the evil Müller wrong if we stick to the statistics and the face of the meeting.

61% possession, 31 shots against 6, and 12 on target against 4 ... “We had chances and we could have scored four or five goals.

It was not our day, commented Bavarian technician Hans-Dieter Flick, for the first time beaten on the European stage in 16 games.

“It's an unfortunate defeat.

Paris played very efficiently but we dominated the game.

I have to compliment my team on the mentality, the style of play. Despite everything, we weren't focused enough in front of goal ”.

"If we put the goals in on the return trip, I think it will"

Quite the opposite of PSG in short.

Thanks to his tandem Neymar-Mbappé, the Parisians showed striking composure as soon as they had the chance to approach Manuel Neuer's cages - the Munich captain did not speak at the end of the match .

“Mbappé?

It's the high level, that's how it was, he was super efficient today, greeted his partner in Blue Kingsley Coman at the microphone of RMC Sport.

"It really hurts to lose today at home," he added, but still remaining confident for the second act on Tuesday.

“We know we can do it.

This match still shows that we have the capabilities.

If we put the goals in on the return trip, I think it will ”.

This revenge, his teammate Benjamin Pavard secretly hopes that PSG will approach it just as feverishly as against FC Barcelona in the previous round (1-1).

“We saw (...) that they had struggled, but they qualified.

We are focused on ourselves, not on Paris.

We deserved to win today, we will have to put the same ingredients back, ”he said on RMC Sports.

So same recipe, and same absence too.

Their providential scorer Robert Lewandoski, Europe's best artificer, will not recover from his injury next week.

Flick confirmed it this Wednesday evening.
