Kompany Explains Díaz Bench Decision | Liverpool News

Vincent Kompany surprised everyone in the match with Bayer Leverkusen. The Belgian coach decided to rest several stars, including Luis Díaz who had completed eight consecutive games as a starter. In the run-up they asked the coach if he would give them a rest at some point and he anticipated that he saw them physically well, but perhaps the upcoming Champions League match against PSG and the trip to Paris made him change his decision.

Bayern is the only team of Europe’s big five that remains undefeated in the Bundesliga, Cup and Champions League. Now they will face the current UCL champion who also has three wins in three games in this tournament. The German team will have a difficult first test this season. Kompany felt it was the ideal time to give the trident Kane, Olise and Díaz a rest.

“They always asked me when Kane was going to have a rest, when Luis Díaz was going to rest and until when Olise was going to do it. “Today I felt like it was the ideal moment,” he said after the 3-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen.

The DT assured that the three players understood their substitution. The French, English and Colombian entered in the 60th minute where they controlled the game. “They are professionals and understand everything. It doesn’t matter if it’s Kane, Olise or Díaz, they all know the situation we are in.”

The Champions League, Bayern’s main objective

The Champions League is coming and a very important duel against PSG, current champion. Luis Díaz will have to be attentive because one of those meetings is coming where history can be made or leave a mark. He was recently criticized for the options he has failed lately, but in Bayern Munich there is total confidence in the Colombian.
