Oliver Kahn (CEO FC Bayern): “It’s not looking too good, it’s just that I’ve experienced incredible things in football. We have a duty to throw everything in again in this second leg, to try everything. To show our fans around the world that we don’t give up. There’s no point in lamenting too much and seeing everything negatively. We have a great opportunity to become German champions. It’s all very, very close. We can’t allow ourselves to sink into our thoughts here. We have to immediately top it up on Saturday.”
Thomas Tuchel (FC Bayern coach): “I don’t see the result at all, we were punished in phases where we were absolutely the better team, where we had the momentum on our side. I refuse to badmouth the performance, I have one up until the 70th minute I saw a very good performance, I’m very satisfied. I still need a bit of form, a bit of confidence. I fell in love with my team a little bit. That was fun coaching. We deserved at least one goal, we’ve got at least one or two given away. It’s a very bitter result. But football is football, nothing is given away.”
Pep Guardiola (Manchester City team manager): “We’re really good here in our stadium, we have our momentum, we’re developing our game. It’s the same for Bayern in front of their fans in Munich. I was there, I know it. When they get into their game, they can do one or two quickly , score three goals.”
Joshua Kimmich (Bayern): “Brutal, the first 60 minutes in particular were very, very good, the result is very bitter. But: It’s possible to keep up, to win, even if that sounds strange now.”
Matthijs de Ligt (Bayern): “I think we gave the game away unnecessarily.”
