At FC Bayern’s 2-3 in the quarter-final first leg of the Champions League against Paris Saint-Germain, the German record champion was once again certified to have major problems in defensive work. Joshua Kimmich, who is otherwise praised by all sides, is not unconvinced by a few experts.
„The Bavarians have forgotten to defend, often they do not close the lines,“ complained former world-class defender Jürgen Kohler in the Monday issue of the „kicker“. In this special season again due to the coronavirus pandemic, the German record champion mainly reveals weaknesses in the backward movement.
Again and again, there were large gaps in the Munich midfield, which provided space for PSG superstars to initiate dangerous actions. „His primary task is to give the team stability,“ says Hamann about Kimmich. For the former Bavarian clearer, the most important task is the work of a six-seater at the headquarters in front of the defence.
