Dominated overall, the Rouge et Bleu never really managed to worry their opponents and create sharp offensive situations. Aligned in attack in an unprecedented 4-4-2, Ousmane Dembélé and Bradley Barcola missed out on their match.
The first of the two also received a red card at the start of the second period and the second had to give way to Gonçalo Ramos at the end of the match. The two French attackers were never able to gain the upper hand over the Bavarian defense.
The former Olympique Lyonnais player and the ex-Borussia Dortmund striker did not complete a single dribble during this meeting. Even Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer managed to do more than them. A terrible statistic for the two French internationals.
The Parisians will have to quickly raise their heads if they want to stay in this competition. With only 4 points on the clock, Luis Enrique’s men are virtually eliminated from the competition. The Ile-de-France residents are in 26th position in the ranking.
The French champions must absolutely win in their next match against Salzburg on December 10. To be continued…
