Overview
- Bayern’s perfect run of 16 wins in 16 competitive games ended with a 2-2 draw at Union Berlin, according to late Saturday reporting.
- In an ESPN interview, Jürgen Klinsmann said the team entered the season with extreme hunger to prove they are Europe’s best and to collect titles.
- He argued last season’s Champions League exit to Inter Milan and having to watch the final at the Allianz Arena left the squad angry and refocused.
- Klinsmann also pointed to the Club World Cup quarter-final loss in Atlanta against Paris and Jamal Musiala’s injury in a clash with Gianluigi Donnarumma as embittering moments.
- He praised Vincent Kompany’s leadership and cited the recent 2-1 away win at PSG, noting Bayern’s dominance even after Luis Díaz was sent off before halftime.
