Bayern Munich: Five goals despite personnel worries - on the way to the round of 16!
FC Bayern Munich stays on the course in the Champions League despite considerable personnel problems and celebrated an impressive 5-1 win against Schachtar Donetsk in Gelsenkirchen. The team, who had to compete without important players like Manuel Neuer, Harry Kane and Kingsley Coman, scored goals by Laimer, Müller, Musiala and Olise, who scored his two goals by penalty and in added time. Bavaria now has 12 points after six games and can concentrate on the upcoming challenges in the group phase, reported Today.at .
Bayern are in the middle of a narrow time window where they still have to play three games by Christmas, including an away game against Feyenoord Rotterdam. Schachtar Donetsk, who plays his home games in the Schalke arena, had to recover from an early goal through Kevin in the fifth minute of the game, but ultimately could not withstand pressure. According to evening newspaper Munich will remain critical of Bavaria, including the players, including the Goalkeeper Neuer, who contracted a break, are not available. Thomas Müller, who was also struck, stated that it was optimistic about going into the upcoming games and stated that despite all the difficulties, one wanted to set up a powerful team.
The pressure is growing, because Bavaria currently only ranks 13th in the Champions League table. The goal is clear: the Munich team must win all three remaining games to ensure that they move into the round of 16. Bavaria's President Herbert Hainer is also confident and emphasizes that the focus is on sporting success. "We will give everything to successfully end the year," Hainer assured the fans. In the spirit of this announcement, FC Bayern could go up again in the Champions League if the team concerns its challenges with determination.
