Bayern Munich - Villarreal 1-1 (0-0), quarter-final second leg

After the 0-1 draw in Villarreal, FC Bayern had big plans for the second leg.

In the first half of the second leg on Tuesday evening, Bayern showed themselves to be aggressive, but they still lacked the necessary punch.

At the beginning of the second half, FCB turned up the heat and took the lead after Lewandowski made a mistake.

First report from April 12:

Munich – For FC Bayern Munich * the quarter-final second leg is the most important game of the current season to date.

The team of coach Julian Nagelsmann* goes into the encounter against FC Villarreal with a difficult starting position.

Now the mentality of the Nagelsmann squad is in demand, the coach was already completely convinced of his team after the lost first leg.

"We've always delivered this season," assured the 34-year-old, looking ahead to Tuesday evening.

"We have to turn up the intensity of the game as a whole," he demanded in view of the partially uninspired appearance of his Bayern team.

Against the reigning Europa League winners, his team should "bring a few German virtues into play".

The personnel situation is quite relaxed compared to other times of the current season.

Lucas Hernández* will return to the team on Tuesday, the French defender had to pass against Augsburg due to a thigh contusion.

Like on Saturday, Niklas Süle is absent due to the flu, which Nagelsmann described as "bitter for us and for him".

Last season, Bayern's international appearances ended in the quarter-finals against Paris Saint-Germain.

After losing 3-2 at home, a 1-0 win in France wasn't enough on away goals.

With the rule no longer in effect, any Bayern win by a goal difference could result in extra time.

The greatest danger for FC Bayern on Tuesday is again Villarreal's good team spirit coupled with striker Gerard Moreno's goal threat.

Another advantage of the guests is that not all Bayern pros are in good shape.

For example, Thomas Müller and Serge Gnabry have recently shown rather moderate performances, Nagelsmann recently even felt compelled to make an announcement in the direction of Leroy Sané.
