FC Bayern and RB Leipzig deliver an offensive spectacle. The players do not really know how to classify the game without a loser and with six goals. A Leipziger is completely intoxicated with the game.
Thomas Müller wasn’t really satisfied. Not with the result and not with your own performance. Previously, FC Bayern defended the table lead with a 3: 3 against RB Leipzig and Müller contributed significantly to the point gain with two goals. Nevertheless, the 31-year-old didn’t want the evening to be a success.
“For me there were a few too many ball losses with me,” said Müller self-critically on “Sky”. “It wasn’t all perfect. Of course you don’t score two goals in every game, I’m happy about the action. But even with me personally there would have been more today. ”
For Bayern too, there would have been more in the fast game. Especially in the final phase when the Leipzigers were noticeably weak. “We knew before the game that we could come back. We didn’t just know that we have to come back now, ”said Müller. “In the end, we have to live with it.” Overall, it is “okay and good that we remain leaders in the table”.

Bayern are still one point ahead of RB at the top. But Leipzig showed for a long time how you can get hold of the Munich. Julian Nagelsmann’s team attacked Munich early on and always put pressure on the player in charge. The Munich defensive players had too much stress for an orderly play structure.

“It was a real top game with two teams that really wanted to win. It was great to be able to stand on the pitch. You live for games like this, ”said Leipzig midfielder and goalscorer Emil Forsberg.
“Both defense lines weren’t 100 percent”
His coach Nagelsmann spoke of a “thrilling game” and added, with a view to the decisive match in the Champions League against Manchester United (Tuesday, 9 pm, in the WELT live ticker): “I am very happy with the point. The way the team performed today deserves praise. It’s about the round of 16 in the Champions League. It is therefore worthwhile to fool everything. “
For Bayern, who have already been confirmed as group winners, next Wednesday (9 p.m., in the WELT live ticker) in the Champions League against Lokomotiv Moscow there will be nothing more.
Coach Hansi Flick will probably give his regulars a break again. After the fast game against Leipzig he wanted to take a deep breath: “It was important that we didn’t lose the game. It was a wild game. Both lines of defense were not quite 100 percent. “
