AI-generated summary
RB Leipzig lost the Bundesliga top game in the Allianz Arena against FC Bayern Munich 1:6.
After the 1:6 defeat in the top Bundesliga game in Munich, the frustration at RB Leipzig runs deep. “It was a complete failure on our part in all areas,” complained sports director Marcel Schäfer on the Sky microphone after his footballers’ deserved defeat at FC Bayern. “You can lose here in the Allianz Arena, we know that, everyone knows that. But not like that,” said coach Martin Demichelis. “The most important thing is to say ‘sorry’ to our fans who drove or flew here.”
The Saxons were so inferior to the record champions that the club spokesman mistakenly spoke of a 6-0 defeat at the start of the press conference and omitted the consolation goal in stoppage time.
Before the next difficult game in the Champions League on Wednesday at Real Madrid, Demichelis said that above all, a measure was needed. “There aren’t many good things to take away from today’s game,” said the former Bayern professional. “That’s why we have to forget everything we did here today as quickly as possible.”
Announcement before trip to Real Madrid
Leipzig were blatantly inferior to Munich and conceded half a dozen goals from Luis Díaz (12th minute/47th/69th), Aleksandar Pavlovic (26th), Michael Olise (34th) and Harry Kane (53rd). RB goalkeeper Maarten Vandevoordt was by far the best guest professional and thwarted several other goals.
The 1:6 by substitute Andrija Maksimovic (90th + 1) was just a cosmetic result for the Leipzig team, who ran a little more than six kilometers less than the Munich team in the game. In the end, Bayern had 29:12 shots on goal, 666:414 passes played – and 62:38 percent possession.
Schäfer also recognized this, who had to admit: "We were simply completely inferior in all areas, we had no chance. We had an exceptionally bad day today and Bayern also had a good day. Accordingly, you have to say, we were simply well served with the six goals."
The sports director announced a tough analysis - also with regard to the upcoming task in Madrid: "Today we saw that it was a lesson for us in what it means to act at world-class level or at the top level. And we have a lot of work ahead of us."
