FC Bayern Munich are in the last 16 of the Champions League. In the end, the Munich team won a sovereign victory against FC Salzburg. At the same time, Flick-Elf extended its impressive winning streak.
Bayern Munich have resolved the knockout stages of the Champions League. Munich defeated Salzburg 3-1 (1-0) and thus qualified for the round of the last 16 teams.
Robert Lewandowski (42nd), Kingsley Coman (52nd) and Leroy Sané (68th) scored Bayern’s goals, Salzburg’s Mergim Berisha could only cut short (73rd).
Bayern vs Salzburg: this was the game
Bayern had to play the last 25 minutes in the minority: rookie Marc Roca, who had already made a decent debut in the Champions League, saw yellow-red (66th) for repeated gross games. Mergim Berisha scored the well-deserved goal of honor for Salzburg (73rd).
As in the first leg (6-2), it was hard work for Bayern. The underdog Salzburg stayed true to his brave line with the big favorites and had good chances against his newly formed defense. But in the once again outstanding Manuel Neuer in goal was reliable.
Bayern coach Hansi Flick was forced into two brave personalities in view of the personal emergency. Because it was only enough for a prankster role for Lucas Hernandez after his pelvic concussion, Chris Richards, 20, was also allowed to celebrate his premier class debut on the left defensive side. In addition, after the disappointment against Bremen (1: 1), Flick returned to double six, “because we expect a team that wants to play football.” Then Roca came to the train with Leon Goretzka.
Bavaria revealed loopholes
The Spaniard could not complain about the lack of employment against extremely agile Salzburgers. “Good pressure, game change, use our speed,” demanded RB coach Jesse Marsch shortly before the game at Sky, and his team implemented it well. The rebuilt Munich defense had trouble building the game more often.
And it revealed loopholes that RB ruthlessly pushed into. After a bad pass from the strangely shaky head of defense David Alaba, Neuer had to show all his skills in a double chance against Berisha and Enock Mwepu (15th). The Hungarian wunderkind from Salzburg, Dominik Szoboszlai, gave the best chance of touring the guests in front of Neuer (35th).
Lewandowski’s goal seemed like a liberation for the Reds, the 32-year-old hitting it in an instant after a Thomas Müller shot. Coman was lucky at 2-0 that the RB Wöber defender lunged on his shot and deflected it unsustainably.
In view of the now clearer deficit, Salzburg had to feel like it was in the wrong movie. Especially when Sane raised her head after a Coman crossover.
Two days before the end of the group stage, the Munich team is unmatched at the top of the table with 12 points, and even seven points ahead of Atlético de Madrid in second place. The victory against Mozart’s people was also Flick-Elf’s 15th consecutive victory in the Champions League.
