FC Bayern received - of course - FC Barcelona with Robert Lewandwoski at home in the Champions League.

So there were enough topics to talk about.

The voices.

Munich - It was actually almost clear when the draw for the group stage in the Champions League was due that FC Bayern would be drawn to FC Barcelona of all places.

So it came to a showdown between Munich and the Catalans on Tuesday evening - with a very special background.

World footballer Robert Lewandowski switched from the Allianz Arena to the Camp Nou in the summer and now scores there as he wants.

But not against the German record champions!

The Pole went away empty-handed.

Perhaps because Julian Nagelsmann, Thomas Müller & Co. had announced in advance that they were looking forward to seeing each other again.

After the game, despite Bayern's 2-0 win, there were also critical voices from the team - albeit towards the media.

We summarize the voices from the Allianz Arena and Amazon Prime Video for you.

Leon Goretzka (FC Bayern) after the game over...

… the game:

“It was a football festival, it was fun.

We struggled in the first half.

Then we did better in the second half, scored two goals and beat Barca.

Runs.!

… his substitution at the break:

"Basically, it suits me more if I play from the start so that I can get into my rhythm, but today it went well."

… his being in the joker role:

“I have decided not to say anything about it.

A sentence from with out of place was used.

I don't have a problem with the coach or with the fact that I'm not starting today.

I was out for six weeks, then I started, then it was clear that I wouldn't play from the start.

Sabi (Sabitzer, editor's note) did a great job.

These alleged problems in the cabin are designed in such a way that really annoys me.

We get along really well in the team.”

... the World Cup and how important today's win was:

"I haven't thought about the World Cup for a second today.

Only during the international break, then I think about it for a moment.

But at the moment I just want to get fit and be successful with FC Bayern.”

Manuel Neuer (Captain, FC Bayern) after the game on Amazon Prime about ...

... about Goretzka's statements shortly after the game:

"I definitely agree with him.

We have a very good squad with a lot of players who can be in the starting XI.

So we have a lot of competition within the team.”

... Lewandowski's performance:

"Yes, I think it was an emotional game for Lewy because he was very successful in Munich.

And you take on a lot there, but we also know him as an opponent.

Luck was not on his side in crucial situations.

We're lucky that he went over the bar in one volley and I was there in the second action.

We showed a good defensive performance today.”

... Julian Nagelsmann's words after the game:

"He said he was satisfied with our performance and the second half.

We wanted the three points more than Barcelona.”

… the upcoming tasks:

“We must not exaggerate now, we won every game in the Champions League.

Against Inter and Barcelona we had room and space, as you can see from our second goal.

However, we have to do better against teams that are compact at the back.

Such an opponent is now waiting for us in FC Augsburg.”

Manuel Neuer (captain, FC Bayern) after the game in the mixed zone over ...

… the game:

“Definitely a good second half, it was very convincing.

In the beginning it was a bit of a scout, so maybe we got lucky in a couple of situations.

But we wanted the win more today, especially in the second half.”

… Lewandowski's return:

"It was an emotional game for him, I think he had big plans.

But of course we also know him, the defense and I as a goalkeeper.

Luck was more on our side today.”

… his back line:

“Basically, it was a good defensive performance.

You can't always defend everything away, which is why Barça created chances in the first half, but for me the performance of our central defenders was also decisive."

... the rotation:

"There was a lot of talk about the rotation, it was also made a topic in the media.

I think we have a good squad for that.

Everyone has the right and the quality to play.

Accordingly, it is important right now, if someone is absent or if there are English weeks, to be there for games like the one against Augsburg.”

… the second half:

“Yes, let me say we played with more conviction and a little more courageously.

In the first half it was a bit of groping.”

Leroy Sané (FC Bayern) on...

... the first half:

"In the first half, the offensive didn't help the defense very much, we didn't break free well and didn't hold the balls and didn't play courageously enough either."

... his goal, which Musiala prepared:

"Yes, we both get along well, next to, but also on the pitch.

We know what we're doing and want to play together.

So we knew exactly what we had to do there.”

... his performance:

"Today it was okay, I scored a goal, but in the end I can play better than today."

… his reaction to his substitution:

"It was just emotions.

I scored a goal but didn't play a good game.

I'd rather like to play the game, help the team and win, whether it's scoring or an assist.

I can play better, so the bottle had to suffer."

... the performance of returnee Lewandowski:

"We can be happy that he didn't hit the ball so well today.

But we know about his qualities, we shouldn't really give him this space in the next game.

He usually cleans them up.”

Herbert Hainer (President FC Bayern) on ...

… the victory:

“Yes, of course we are absolutely happy.

We were nervous for the first 45 minutes, we saw that, but we played a great game in the second half, I have to say.”

... Lewandowski's missed chances:

"Robert has a heart, but I think the team saw in the second half that they had a good chance and they did well with the two goals."

... the reception of Robert Lewandowski:

"I spoke to a few fan clubs beforehand, they all said that they received him warmly.

He played here for eight years and won so much.”

… the transfer trouble with Barcelona:

“No, we raised the issue again, also with Laporta (Barcelona President’s note), and at the end of the day everyone is happy: Robert, that he was allowed to go there, Barcelona that they have the player and we got money to invest in the future of the team.

In that respect everything is good.”

... the development of the opponent:

"Barcelona were a much stronger opponent than a year ago, they caused us real problems in the first 45 minutes.

But we have so much quality in the team, you could see that.

In this respect, I am convinced that we can achieve a great deal.

Of course you need a little bit of luck for that, but the team is really great.”

Hasan Salihamidzic (FC Bayern) on...

... the win:

"The game lasts 90 minutes, and in the first half we didn't play as we would like.

(...) That definitely gives us a good position and confidence for the players.

They showed that this is how you play in the Champions League.

But Barcelona are also a good team, as we have seen.

In the first half we made mistakes, played bad passes and were unsure, but in the second half we showed why we deserved to win."

... Upamecano and Hernandez:

“They did well, but I can't say that others did worse.

Thomas Müller in particular - I'm interested in how much he ran today.

The goals, how Jamal and Leroy played together, make me positive.”

… Lewandowski's chances:

"He had two or three good scenes and I was surprised that he didn't do it anymore.

We're glad we didn't fall behind there."

... Leroy Sané:

"Yes, it's important that everyone is self-critical and can assess themselves.

I've spoken to Leroy before and he was mad at myself and upset, but then you do it better and that's what makes a good professional."

... Noussair Mazraoui:

“Yes, very good performance from him.

He was thrown in at the deep end, couldn't even warm himself up.

I'm very happy for him.

Upa also played strong and did it very, very well.

But I think the full-backs were also really good.”

… Lucas Hernández’s injury:

“Lucas has now gone to do nuclear spins with Doc, we will know that then.

He's had a similar injury before, so we'll have to see how difficult it is."

Jamal Musiala (FC Bayern) after the game over...

... the strong performance after the unfortunate results in the league:

"We've looked at the last few games to see what we can do better.

We were hungry to win.

Sometimes it takes a corner goal to break the pressure.

Then we had the momentum on our side and made it 2-0.

But it was a super opponent, they didn't make it easy for us."

… his mood before the game:

"It was a great game, everyone wants to win.

This morning when we got up, we realized what this will be today.

The fans were hot, you could tell.”

… the many chances that Lewandowski missed:

“It happens in a game, he had his chances.

But it didn't work out, maybe next time it'll work better.

That's how it is."

Julian Nagelsmann spoke on Amazon before the game.

Marcel Sabitzer (FC Bayern) on ...

... the win:

We suffered a bit in the first half, they did well, let the ball run and we couldn't get hold of them.

There were situations in which Manu is also good, in which Phonzy closes well.

We were a bit lucky with the penalty, but sometimes you need that in a game like this.

Then we'll come out, make two booths.

It was okay at the back, we're happy with the win.

... his replacement:

"It wasn't the best performance today, my yellow card didn't play into my hands in the transition situations either."

… the next games:

“We want to take that with us, the good feeling.

We need three points in the league again as soon as possible and we will prepare well for that from Thursday.”

Julian Nagelsmann (coach, FC Bayern) on ...

... Robert Lewandowski, who enters the square when Nagelsmann speaks:

"The audience will applaud, that's how it should be.

He played here for many years and achieved a lot.”

... recent rather mixed performances:

"We've already proven over long stretches of this season that we can deliver top performances.

We have to trust that.

The first game that wasn't so good was against VfB."

… the plan on how to defend Lewandowski:

"We have to take away the passes on him, that's an important pressure.

We have to keep him away from the gate.

But it is not easy to control.

He's not allowed to have too many actions in the sixteen, because he's incredibly dangerous."

... the missing nine in FC Bayern's system:

"It depends on the game.

We have one in Chupo who was injured for a long time.

If we'd found a suitable nine, we would have gone for it.”

... Salihamidzic's statement that a draw is okay:

"He also wants to take some pressure off the boiler.

It was smart that we didn't add more fuel to the fire.

In the end, however, victory is of course the decisive factor, then everyone is happy with the rotation.”

... Mané's position:

"Sadio has already played many positions.

He also played at Liverpool centre.”

... the opponent:

"Barcelona have brought in a lot of good players."

... Moderator Sebastian Hellman intervenes and confronts Nagelsmann with the statement: "Without money, many good transfers made."

..

.

the FCB coach continued:

"I'm definitely not going to say that anymore."

... the expectations of the game:

"There are two teams who want to play football.

I'm really looking forward to it."

Hasan Salihamidzic (Sports Director, FC Bayern) before the game over...

... the fan reception for Lewandowski:

"The fans have a good sense that Robert has done a lot for FC Bayern.

And I'm glad about it."

... communication with Lewy before the game:

"We talked a lot over the summer, had some discussions, but everything was completely normal."

... his expectations for the game:

"It's a great game to show what we're capable of.

There are two teams at a high level and I'm looking forward to an interesting game.

The coach did everything right and gave the match plan, now the team just has to implement it.”



… the recent restless mood on Säbener Straße and the talks with Nagelsmann:

“We talked a lot even without the draw.

We drink coffee two or three times a week or go out to eat something, regardless of the success we talk and discuss a lot.

It can get louder sometimes, but that's healthy.

Nothing has changed because of the three draws, we also won the Champions League in between.”

… his statements after the Stuttgart game:

“We talked a lot about what is more important this second half of the season.

That we're either trying to win every game or we're giving all the guys their minutes to keep them in top form."

... the match plan to beat Barca:

"We will try to impose our game on them.

We want to have a lot of possession and create chances.

It will be difficult but interesting.”
