Italy’s former World Cup coach Marcello Lippi sees football record champion FC Bayern Munich as a clear favourite on the Champions League triumph.
“FC Bayern is a flawless football machine that runs 100 kilometres per hour. It is balanced and high-quality in every area,” Lippi said in an interview with “Gazzetta dello Sport”.
The 72-year-old continues: “FC Bayern has an incredible conviction and never seems to be under pressure.” The Tuscan football teacher also does not save with praise for Bavarian goalscorer Robert Lewandowski. “He is precious not only because of his goals, but also because of his other actions that allow other players to meet,” Lippi stressed.
