The two squads fought to a 2-2 draw where the Bavarians needed a late goal just to eek out a point. Afterward, Kompany was pragmatic about the effort.
“We didn’t do enough in the first half, we were 1,2,3 steps too late, we lost the second ball many times. We knew set pieces were Union’s biggest strength, it was about details. From the 30th minute onwards, I can’t say that it was a bad performance. It was difficult, but that’s what we expected here. We didn’t really play a bad game, but I have to say that the opponent did many things right,” said Kompany 9as captured by @iMiaSanMia). “In the grand scheme of things, there were some positives to take from today. Leipzig lost. And the way we came back to secure the point, that’s part of a season.”
Heading into the international break, Bayern Munich will have a chance to regroup and Kompany will have some time to digest why this one played out the way it did after such an intense week of wins over Bayer Leverkusen and Paris Saint-Germain.
