Bayern interpreted a 4-2-4 in an offensive play and tried with Sane and Gnabry entering in 1v1 situations and trying to dribble.
This resulted in too many corner kicks with the wingers bursting forward and finding the target 9 times.
Bayern with subs played again a 4-2-4, but with the wingers playing less advanced in the midfield and with three strong central defenders Mathijs de Light, Dayot Upamecano, and Kim Min Jae.
Average player positions
Sven Ulreich had a very good performance in this game. Although he couldn’t do much to prevent the goals, he was in the right moment, especially in the second half. He found the wing in the Palacios pen, but could not save his shot. Ulreich participated in the build-up and helped Bayern create from the back.
His rating is 7.1.
Konrad Laimer is the typical right-wing defender who does not make mistakes and performs well. He had a shot in the fourth minute and a good performance during the whole game.
His rating is 7.2.
Dayot Upamecano played well in the build-up and organized the defence. But sometimes he lets Boniface play with the ball and this is not acceptable in Bayern’s levels.
His rating is 6.8
Kim Min Jae played high in the same line with Dayot Upamecano and the fact that both central are so advanced creates a big gap between them and the zone and they need to consume more energy to close the spaces and not get counters.
South Korean player receives a 7.1.
Alphonso Davies is one of the best in his position. His crosses helped Bayern keep the rhythm and attack on the left side. He had one good moment in minute 17 and the other in the last minutes when he conceded a penalty.
His rating is 6.8.
Joshua Kimmich played an hour of great intensity and started the game well since the second minute crossing for Gnabry and providing great passes in the hour he played. He was positioned between the central defenders and near Laimer too.
His rating is 7.1.
Leon Goretzka’s positioning near Davies made his game so effective and at the same time made his game so effective. He had a brilliant chance in the 44th and scored in the 86th the second goal for Bayern.
His rating is 7.3.
Leroy Sane was the most advanced player on the pitch and was the man of the corner kicks executing 7 corner kicks in this game and providing one assist in the first goal for Kane.
His rating is 7.4.
Thomas Muller was the main man on the attack and played in the same line as Kane forming a solid double in the center of the attack. He played for one hour and was replaced by Musiala.
His rating is 7.1.
Harry Kane was the first scorer of the game and had a good game, but Bayern expects more from him to attack between the spaces, play in the last line of the defenders, and seek the final pass.
His rating is 7.1.
Serge Gnabry was positioned high in his flank and was going for those 1v1 duels with Kossounu. He wasn’t successful in catching some important passes and he needs to improve in this aspect.
His rating is 6.9.
Substitutions
Noussair Mazraoui entered in the 61st minute and had some fast actions in his right wing. He combined with Laimer and also was able to play a hybrid role, sharing his wing with Sane, who was a hidden attacker.
His rating is 6.9.
Jamal Musiala played half an hour in this game and had that initiative bursting forward together with the line of four in the attack.
His rating is 7.0
Mathys Tel was exceptional in the first 25 minutes he played in the left wing. He was more productive than Gnabry and provided an assist for Goretzka.
His rating is 7.5.
Mathijs De Light replaced Laimer and formed a defense with three in the last minutes. He played only 10 minutes, but Bayern conceded but was not his responsibility.
His rating is 6.8.
Eric Maxim Choupo Moting played only 10 minutes and he pressed well, but could not find any spaces forward.
His rating is 6.3.
The way he analyses and prepares the game, makes Thomas Tuchel one of the most intelligent managers in the game. He played with Gnabry and Sane advances and Serge’s game was the only problem in his system.
His rating is 7.1.
