Karim Benzema talks about weaknesses in FC Bayern Munich
The Frenchman shot Blancos into the next round of the Champions League* with his lightning hat-trick against Paris.
It was the capital club from his home country that had given Benzema the biggest stomach ache beforehand: "The team that scared me the most was Paris," he said in an interview with the French specialist magazine
L'Équipe
.
PSG is now out, Manchester City, Liverpool, Bayern and Real are now traded as big favorites for the handle pot.
The world champion only shrugs his shoulders at these opponents and is not impressed.
Benzema says about FC Bayern Munich: "Bayern is a team that scores goals, but also concedes a lot.
I see their games and sometimes they run into counterattacks where two defenders meet four attackers.”
FC Bayern and Real Madrid: Munich don't have the best memories
In fact, FCB set a new Bundesliga record with 85 goals in 28 games.
At the same time, they conceded 29 goals - that's also the best in Germany, but of course this record isn't impressive.
After all, the Munich team conceded 1,036 goals per game.
So is defensive instability the key for the Champions League opponents of the "Bestia Negra"?
The fact is: Bayern don't have the very best memories when the name Real Madrid is mentioned.
In 2014 and 2018 it was in the semifinals against the royal team, in 2017 it was already in the quarterfinals.
In 2022 there could only be a reunion in the final.
Wait and see how Karim Benzema then thinks about the potential opponent.
