Four observations from Bayern Munich’s nailbiting 1-0 win over PSG

In matches like these, the scoreline is what counts. Bayern Munich might not have been perfect, but earned three critical points in this Champions League campaign. It was by no means a bad performance, but the team still isn’t fully clicking yet.

Defenders turned strikers

Kim Min-Jae has now scored his third goal for the club, after just recently scoring along with Dayot Upamecano. Bayern Munich have finally got some well-rounded goal scoring after a lack of defensive goals last season. It is a breath of fresh air seeing Kane and company getting a bit of extra help.

Coman needs to improve his finishing

Call us a broken record. Yes, finishing has remained Coman’s primary issue for his entire career. Tonight it could have costed Bayern yet another win. Coman should’ve scored without a doubt from his chances tonight. Olise almost certainly would have scored, but everyone has their off days. It seems as though Coman’s leash is a bit longer than most.

Midfield depth paid off

With Aleksander Pavlovic and João Palhinha out, Leon Goretzka and Konrad Laimer held their own. It is times like this when a lack of depth can cost teams matches, but Bayern’s depth paid off when players like Laimer and Goretzka can step in.

Bayern have a hard time putting away games

When Dembele was sent off for a second yellow, it should have solidified the victory. Yet, Bayern struggled for a second goal while PSG threatened to equalize. Not every game can be 7-0, but this was probably too close than it needed to be.
