Last November 4, Bayern Munich were away on the pitch at the Parc des Princes and that evening, they won against PSG (1-2). On Wednesday evening, Joshua Kimmich and his partners played in London, as part of the fifth day of the Champions League. Although beaten by the Gunners (3-1), the Bavarian midfielder felt that the Parisian game had been more complicated to manage.
Questioned on TNT Sports, the experienced German international therefore judged that the fight had been more difficult when facing Luis Enrique’s men.
“PSG were our most difficult opponents, particularly because of the way they play football. Against PSG, it was more of a football match. »
Two different tactics between Luis Enrique and Mikel Arteta.
And Joshua Kimmich also developed his point by describing what he had seen against the Gunners. “Arsenal have a completely different game. They only play long balls, they love to fight on second balls. So it’s a completely different game. Today (Wednesday)it was more a question of management than football, especially in duels. Arsenal did it very well. »
Bayern Munich had more difficulty against PSG, according to Kimmich
With this first defeat in five days, Bayern Munich remains very well placed in the race for direct qualification for the next round. Third, tied on points with PSG, Inter Milan and Real Madrid, the German club is now three points behind Arsenal, the only leader with five wins in as many matches.
On December 9, Joshua Kimmich and his team will host Sporting, which has only lost once and is in a good eighth place. PSG will challenge Athletic Bilbao on December 10 while Arsenal will play at Club Brugge.
