Hansi Flick’s conclusion was negative on balance. “The second half was such that you’re a bit annoyed,” said the FC Bayern Munich coach, who is also literally snuffy in the sense of the word, after his 4-1 (3-0) win over 1 FC Cologne.
Although the Bavarians had impressively countered the attacks of their rivals and also scored the fastest 3-0 away lead in their Bundesliga history, the carelessness in the second half and the defensive problems to be feared were a real warning before the hot weeks in the league, Champions League and DFB Cup.
