Match Review

Another impressive win in the Champions League from Bayern Munich!

Bayern Munich will be confident of continuing their good form as they welcome Dynamo Kyiv and Tom Carnduff has found value in the goalscorer market.

Dynamo Kyiv had their chances, and they made Manuel Neuer work this evening. One of the most dangerous Dynamo players was Carlos de Pena – who had a very good chance in the first half. Dynamo attacked Bayern on the counterattack, and Pena got the ball and took a shot, but Manuel Neuer brilliantly saved it. Besides that, Dynamo Kyiv was a tough cookie to break, at least in the first half.

Der Kaiser: Manuel Neuer

The Bayern Munich captain played another brilliant match and got another clean sheet. The German had a surprisingly active evening. Dynamo Kyiv didn’t have particularly many chances, but whenever they attacked and tried to score, Manuel Neuer was there with either a brilliant save or a confident catch. He also made a couple of his characteristic runs, and he timed every one of them perfectly. Neuer finished tonight’s match with two saves and 88% successful passes. Another great match for Bayern Munich’s captain!

Halftime 

Munich are bossing this game. Lewandowski has two, and Sane has hit the post as well. Sule is bombing forward as the right-back we all deserve, and Davies is zooming all over the pitch. Lucas Hernandez is a wall. A good game so far.On the rare occasion Dynamo Kyiv managed to get past Bayern’s backline, Manuel Neuer was ready and waiting. He’s had more work to do than he did against Barcelona, but it’s been a mostly quiet game for the Bayern captain.Leroy Sane is playing like a man possessed. This is more proof that Bayern fans should boo players more often.

26’ — GOAL! Lewandowski makes it 2-0 to Bayern! Excellent turnover by Sule in midfield, and great release by Muller for the assist

11’ — GOAL! Robert Lewandowski makes it 1-0 from the penalty spot!

Kickoff: We’re underway in Munich!

 One hour until kickoff: Lineups are out! Dayot Upamecano and Lucas Hernandez start in the middle, with Niklas Sule possibly moved to right-back. Or ... it could be a back-three. Let’s hope not.

  Bayern Munich want to top Group E, and these are the games you have to win to do that. Dynamo Kyiv may not be from a top-five league, but they’re still in the Champions League, which means they will be a tougher challenge than the average Bundesliga team.

 Julian Nagelsmann has a mostly fit squad for this game, a rarity for a Bayern coach. Jamal Musiala and Serge Gnabry are back and ready for selection, although Kingsley Coman is still probably not fit enough to start. Robert Lewandowski didn’t score vs. Greuther Furth last Friday, so he will definitely be itching to get a goal tonight. All in all, it should be a fun game provided we don’t see any any nonsense from the defense.

It’s Bayern time
