It is reasonable to lose to Paris Saint-Germain, but Kompany made Bayern lose regret and lose

11:33pm, 7 July 2025Football

Compared with the other half, the competition in this half where Bayern Munich is located is obviously more intense.

They want to enter the finals, not only to win the new Champions League champion Paris Saint-Germain in a direct confrontation, but also to defeat the winner between Real Madrid and Dortmund in the semi-finals, which is destined to be a more difficult road to advance.

Of course, for Paris Saint-Germain, the difficulty is the same. Compared with Bayern's main players, Dembele has never been able to start, which makes Enrique's team able to explore and move forward without a key link.

However, Paris Saint-Germain will get help from its opponents.

Although Paris Saint-Germain lacks Dembele, with Kvaratshelia, Douai and Barcola, all the main players were still played in the midfield and backcourt, and if Dembele is missing, Enrique's idea is still the same.

So at the beginning, Paris Saint-Germain made a shot after stealing:

But on Bayern's side, they soon followed suit:

At the same time, Bayern is also trying to actively create advantages, and their starting point is the same as other Gua teams, which are two full-backs.

Stannich is based on the central defender's body and rarely forward. He spends most of his time on the left center back, thus forming the basis of three defenders when there is a ball. On the other side, Lemmer plays on the right back as a midfielder, helping the team to form an advantage when there is a ball, while playing the characteristics of running and forward-switching links by himself:

So in the whole first half, Bayern's overall performance is still better, which is reflected in the fact that both of their wingers have some space to hold the ball, although most of the rounds ultimately use crosses as offensive means:

But with the help of the midfield advantage, the two sides can be relatively efficiently linked:

And on the basis of steals or lines, with a certain amount of space, both Bayern's wingers have some performance, such as Olisse has room for a counter-foot shot this time:

, and Koeman made a breakthrough cross this time, contacted Kane's head:

The problem is that the advantage in the first half of the first half only accumulated the threat of these two attacks to Donnarumma? Is this efficiency a little low?

Of course, when it comes to inefficiency, the more obvious shortcomings in the first half appeared on Paris Saint-Germain.

Pressed by Bayern, Paris Saint-Germain's offense is not as good as before in the Champions League, but in fact they have also made some good attacks:

, but their main problem actually occurs in the operation stage.

In the Champions League last season, although Paris Saint-Germain did a very good job in the oppressive stage, which left a deep impression on people, Paris Saint-Germain is not a team that specializes in off-ball, fast break and counterattack in terms of data. Their possession rate is still very high, so they have a lot of time to get the ball, and the number of times they get the ball back when they are off-ball is also very high.

In the first half of this game, they were facing the dilemma of insufficient ball rights, and Bayern held the ball more time, which made it difficult for Paris Saint-Germain's offense to form continuous pressure. It seemed that they were hit again and again, which made it difficult to test the problem of Bayern's two central defenders.

This is a team-level problem, but it is reflected in a single point. Douai and Balcola still seem to be not mature and stable in some ball rights treatments. Compared with Dembele, there is still a clear gap:

, so at the end of the first half Bayern Munich played a more concentrated advantage and continuously output offensive pressure:

Finally, in the injury time in the first half, he once scored a set piece, but was judged to be offside first:

So, it is indeed Paris Saint-Germain should be grateful to return to the locker room with a score of 0-0.

On Bayern's side, Kompany needs to see the team's lack of efficiency. His team has formed an advantage in the back position through four defenders and two midfielders, so as to be able to cope with Paris Saint-Germain's pressing and oppression. However, in the offensive stage, in addition to the three forwards, it is difficult to rely on Musiara and Lemmer's back and impact to try to form an advantage in the second line.

In the whole first half, only Musiara's back-to-back match with Pavlovic this time, playing the offensive routine that Bayern should play:

In other words, Kompany needs to see Bayern's disadvantage in the second-tier position at the right time. If you don't have a skilled Southern European midfielder like Gundogan and Bernardo Silva, you need to play the characteristics and elements of Bayern as a German team.

In fact, it is Gretzka that needs to be taken into consideration.

Especially when Musiara left the court with serious injury at the end of the first half, there was room for adjustment in the midfield area, but Kompani still chose Gnabry, and then replaced Stanisic, who was also injured, and adjusted Lemmer's position with Boe.

It is understandable that if you don't change the half-time, this choice cannot be miscalculated, but you can see that Kompany's thinking is still quite rigid and rigid.

Nowadays, the only thing they need to consider is the suspension they will face in the semi-finals, which depends on how many disadvantages Dembele can offset by then.
