Champions League on SPORT1
At Manchester City, on the other hand, superstar Erling Haaland is celebrated – Spain’s media are already afraid of the duel with Real Madrid.
SPORTS1 summarizes the press reviews.
England:
BBC: “FC Bayern’s decision to sack Julian Nagelsmann and replace him with Tuchel raised a number of questions. Two wins in six games, including eliminations in the Champions League and German Cup, have left many wondering if it was the right decision. It is the worst start for a Bayern boss since Sören Lerby in 1991. Even before Tuchel arrived, the club lacked the aura of the past few years.
Daily Express: “Haaland in search of the Holy Grail. The real test is imminent after Haaland makes amends.”
Daily Mail: “Elektro-Haaland is the energy bolt that short circuits Bayern.”
Mirror: “Haaland laughs last: Pep’s Elf finishes the job in Germany”
Sun: “Seen red: Tuchel flies off the field, Bayern bowled out of the Champions League by Man City”
The Athletic: “Haaland scores after a missed penalty – night to forget for Upamecano”
The Independent: “Haaland emphasizes the gap between City and Bayern, but the ‘true final’ beckons.”
The Mirror: “Bye bye Bavaria! One Hal of a Player. Haaland is the greatest… for Real.”
Spain:
AS: “The cannibal is coming. Haaland City is Real’s rival in the semifinals.”
Brand: “A beast… and a bestial semi-final against Real Madrid. Manchester City survives in Munich and meets Real.”
Sport: “Pep vs Real! Haaland threatens Real Madrid in the semifinals.”
Italy:
Gazetta dello Sport: “The better team from both meetings progressed, the ones that conveyed the feeling of superiority and are now going through to the semi-finals for the third time in a row.”
France:
The team: “Manchester City could have been toppled in the first half but ultimately made it through to the semi-finals without really shaking. Haaland is there on the counterattack after his missed penalty and proves that he is there at the crucial moment. Upamecano is having a nightmare.”
Champions League dates
The Parisian: “The arena shook in the first half, but Bayern had to say goodbye to their dreams. Despite Coman’s spectacular actions and the weaknesses in Guardiola’s defence, Munich were unable to catch up.”
Austria:
Crown newspaper: “Bayern Munich missed the miracle of promotion.”
Switzerland:
Blick: “And two! After the cup, Bayern Munich are out of the second of three competitions they wanted to win this season. Because it was seen as being at risk, the trainer changed on Säbener Straße. And after less than a month, Thomas Tuchel can say: all goals missed.”
