FC Bayern Munich lost the first leg of the round of 16 in the Champions League 0-1 at Lazio Rome. Only a few FCB professionals could recommend themselves for future tasks. The grades and individual reviews of the record champions’ next defeat.
FC Bayern Munich at Lazio Rome, notes: Manuel Neuer
Had nothing to do in the first round. The goalkeeper wasn’t even needed in the build-up to the game. But he was there in the 48th minute when Isaksen appeared alone in front of him. No chance with the penalty. Grade: 3.5.
FC Bayern Munich at Lazio Rome, notes: Noussair Mazraoui
Running a bit under the radar at the moment, but played well again against Lazio. Without having any major highlights, he repeatedly found ways out of pressure situations, kept the flow in Bayern’s game and hardly made any mistakes. His clever positional play in particular was good for Bayern, who were unsettled in many places. Note 3.
FC Bayern Munich at Lazio Rome, notes: Dayot Upamecano
Initially there was hardly any challenge defensively because Lazio tried to attack on Bayern’s left side. He had two or three good moments in the build-up to the game. In the second half, however, he caused the opponent’s biggest chance to date with an unnecessary loss of the ball. Later he went to work impetuously in the penalty area and rightly received the red card – and Bayern the penalty to make them 0-1 behind. Grade: 5.
FC Bayern Munich at Lazio Rome, notes: Min-jae Kim
Defensively aggressive and stable as usual. Sometimes seemed over-motivated, but won many of his duels. He hardly made any impact with the ball and even played passes that were too dangerous. Grade: 3.5.
FC Bayern Munich at Lazio Rome, notes: Raphaël Guerreiro
Had an inconsistent appearance on the left side. Offensively, he supported Jamal Musiala very well and repeatedly opened up some space for him. But he made one or two unusual mistakes in the passing game and had a few problems defensively. Grade: 4.
FC Bayern Munich at Lazio Rome, notes: Joshua Kimmich
Had the opportunity to make it 1-0 early in the game, but clearly missed it. Then try to build the game vertically. Played two good long balls in the first round, but otherwise often had to stop or play crosswise because the passing stations were missing. In the second half he couldn’t think of much either as the team gradually dismantled. Grade: 4.
FC Bayern Munich at Lazio Rome, notes: Leon Goretzka
Very sleepy in the initial phase, always needed several contacts for his actions and thus lost one or two balls. As the game progressed, he regained possession of the ball for Bayern in valuable situations by pressing. But that was only a short phase. Overall, once again a mixed performance at best. Grade: 4.
FC Bayern Munich at Lazio Rome, notes: Leroy Sané
By far the weakest Bayern player in the offensive area. Although he demanded a lot of balls, he didn’t know what to do with them. From half-hearted dribbles to crosses that didn’t cover ten meters, everything was there. Had his best scene with a free kick, which he shot just millimeters past the left post. He delayed the game in several offensive transition situations. Grade: 5.
FC Bayern Munich at Lazio Rome, notes: Thomas Müller
Was highly motivated from the start, communicated a lot with his teammates and took responsibility. The first dangerous Bayern attacks all came through him. But lost his drive, especially in the second half, and couldn’t find any solutions against the deep Romans. Grade: 4.
FC Bayern Munich at Lazio Rome, notes: Jamal Musiala
Very active, demanded a lot of balls and brought the most courage to the Bavarian offensive game. Like recently, he didn’t succeed in everything, but with some dribbling he livened up Munich’s otherwise often too sluggish game. Shortly before the break, he also had FCB’s best chance. In the second half he let up, dribbled too often and couldn’t find any solutions. Grade: 4.
FC Bayern Munich at Lazio Rome, notes: Harry Kane
As was the case against Leverkusen, it wasn’t a factor at all in Bayern’s game after he couldn’t take advantage of an early chance. Wasn’t fed, wasn’t found, wasn’t included. Unusual bad passes. The hardest phase for him in the Bayern jersey. Grade: 5.
