Overwhelmed by the Yellow Submarine, the Bavarians eliminated! – Debrief and NOTES of the players (Bayern 1-1 Villarreal) – Maxifoot

Caught up in the 88th minute after making up for their late goal (1-1), Bayern Munich were eliminated by Villarreal, author of a resounding feat this Tuesday in the quarter-final second leg of the Champions League. Goretzka, Coman and the Bayern in the middle of a nightmare… What a disillusion for Bayern Munich! While he had managed to come up from his goal behind and we were heading for extra time, the German cador was caught in the 88th minute by Villarreal (1-1) on Tuesday and found himself again eliminated in the quarter-final second leg of the Champions League! Very realistic, unlike their adversary, the Spaniards signed a great feat. The Allianz Arena on fire domination was then total, as one might expect. In a sold-out Allianz Arena, we witnessed a real siege of the Spanish camp and the crosses rained down on the goal of Rulli, who somehow managed to get free several times. edge to make the difference in the last 30 meters against brave visitors who managed to break the rhythm well, and the only real chance was for Musiala whose powerful header burst on Rulli. Without solution and agacs, the Bavarians expressed their frustration by being guilty of unusual bad gestures, the image of Lewandowski and Goretzka. Serene, the Yellow Submarine followed its plan to the letter and remained on the lookout for the slightest counterattack: Danjuma was just signaled offside before the break, while Moreno found the side netting. Chukwueze sends the Germans to hell! But the German pressure was still increasing when they returned from the locker room. If Upamecano’s shot fled the frame, a missed raise from Parejo took advantage of Lewandowski, until then transparent, who put the two teams equal in both games with a surgical strike (1-0, 52nd). There was fire in the Spanish area and Mller missed the break twice. On the verge of breaking, the Unai Emery band had let the storm pass and, after an initial alert on a shot that was too crossed from Danjuma, Moreno served Chukwueze who crucified Neuer and Bayern at the conclusion of a counter (1-1, 88th). What a denouement! It is indeed the 7th in La Liga who created the feat and will face the winner of Liverpool-Benfica (3-1 first leg) in the semi-finals! Score of the match: 7/10 Marked by the sterile domination of Bayern, many of protests, a few mishaps and few chances, the first period was not the most pleasant despite the crazy atmosphere in the stands. But the second act proved much more exciting with the awakening of Bayern, finally showered by this scenario of madness. The goals: – Parejo tries a daring recovery in the axis, intercepted by Coman. The ball returns to Goretzka who passes Mller. The German launches Lewandowski, who fixes in front of the surface and fires a precise shot from the right which passes between Torres’ legs and beats Rulli with the help of the post (1-0, 52nd). – On a clear counter, Parejo launches Moreno who finds Chukwueze at the far post. In the area, the Nigerian concludes with a recovery that leaves Neuer no chance (1-1, 88th). Player NOTES Maxifoot has awarded a note (out of 10) comments on each player. The man of the match: Leon Goretzka ( 8/10) Despite this draw which sealed the fate of his team, the midfielder, replacing the first leg, proved to be omnipresent. Author of a very big job in the pressing, the German chained the recoveries and his projections hurt the opposing defense. In all the good shots, he notably addressed two caviars Musiala and Mller who did not know how to conclude them in full surface. Penultimate passer on Lewandowski’s goal. The German didn’t have a single save and bowed, completely helpless, on the only shot on target by the Spaniards! Benjamin Pavard (5): in great difficulty in the first leg, the central defender raised his head in carrying out authoritarian interventions which made it possible to cut short the opposing offensives. The Frenchman projected himself rather well forward but played badly on the opposing goal. solid match, with sharp interventions, making the right gesture to repel the danger on the hot balls of opposing opponents. He even gets a big goal opportunity after returning from the locker room. But the Munich player is also caught by Moreno on the fatal goal. Lucas Hernndez (6): good in his reading of the game, the central defender delivered a game of boss and released a lot of serenity, while signing several interesting climbs. Replaced the 87th minute with Alphonso Davies (0). Doubly guilty on the conceded goal because he covers Chukwueze before getting caught behind his back, the left-back has a heavy responsibility in this elimination… Joshua Kimmich (6): with Goretzka, the midfielder formed a very high doublet level that reigned supreme in the midfield. Very aggressive on the ball carrier, the German multiplied the recoveries and signed returns which relieved his defense. His crosses in a position close to that of a right-back, another string to his bow, brought danger, but he generally lacked precision. Leon Goretzka (8): read comment above. Leroy San ( 4.5): irrelevant and completely amorphous in the first period, the right piston multiplied the bullet losses, without making the slightest difference. Suddenly more on his legs during the second period, the German then hit much more and created breaches in the opposing wall. A late awakening all the same.Thomas Muller (4.5): even if he is a decisive passer for Lewandowski and in the shot on several combinations, the German misses two balls from 2-0 with serious consequences in the opposing area. His rating is a bit harsh but symbolizes the lack of efficiency that caused Bayern’s exit. Replaced in the 90th minute by Eric Choupo-Moting (not noted). Jamal Musiala (6.5): preferred Gnabry, the young midfielder proved his coach right. With an impressive chest for his age, the German scratched a lot of balls and brought danger to his projections. Too bad his head in the area ends up on Rulli in the first period. Replaced in the 82nd minute by Serge Gnabry (not rated). Kingsley Coman (6): gained strength over the course of the game, the left piston ended up taking the upper hand over Foyth, who ended up living a real nightmare against him . His percussion and his dribbling hurt the Spanish defense. Robert Lewandowski (5): Completely wiped out by the opposing defense for 45 minutes, the striker expressed his frustration with a nasty sole which earned him a yellow card. But the Pole makes his efficiency speak for himself by converting, in a surgical way, his first opportunity. His 13th and last goal in this European campaign. All the same less inspired in the game than usual. VILLARREAL: Gernimo Rulli (5.5): powerless on the goal conceded because betrayed by his post, the goalkeeper ensured a long time to divert the grazing crosses of the Germans at the start of the game . And he blocks the head of Musiala perfectly. Juan Marcos Foyth (3): after having contained Coman quite well for 45 minutes, the left side was gradually fined by the French in the second period. The Argentinian has no longer managed to close his lane at all and he is not unhappy to escape expulsion. Ral Albiol (6): the veteran contained Lewandowski in a remarkable way, even if the central defender sometimes made his age in the second period and was late in his marking when Bayern pushed. Pau Torres (6): solid in the duels, the central defender embodied the combativeness of the Spaniards and blocked or repelled many dangerous balls.P. Estupin (5): victim of a bad gesture from Goretzka, the left side fought a real fight. The Ecuadorian spent most of his time defending but did rather well. Giovanni Lo Celso (5.5): not as inspired as the first leg, the Argentine still made his exceptional technical quality to keep the ball on the blocks while waiting to find his teammates. His passes resulted in his team’s best chances. Etienne Capoue (7): the French delivered the warrior match his coach was waiting for. Full of selflessness, the midfielder often played the role of 3rd central defender to save the day. He also showed accuracy in his transmissions to bring the danger on the counter. Daniel Parejo (5.5): author of a hazardous recovery, the midfielder with the quality of the pass yet feared, almost became the scapegoat of a whole club. But the Spaniard makes up for it in a very good way by superbly launching the counter which brings the goal of qualification! Replaced in the 90th minute by Serge Aurier (not rated). Francis Coquelin (5.5): a little less prominent than his compatriot Capoue in terms of the volume of play, the other Frenchman from Villarreal still delivered a serious match with interceptions that felt good. Replaced the 84th minute by Samuel Chukwueze (7), author 4 minutes later of the goal of the qualification on a gesture perfectly executed at the end of a counter. Gerard Moreno (6): a good match for the striker, who made speaking the trade, didn’t rush and took the time to play the shots well on the counters, like his decisive pass for Chukwueze. A poison. Danjuma (4.5): the only scorer in the first leg, the striker was hard-hitting, mobile and available on the counterattacks, but this time the Dutchman lacked efficiency. Replaced in the 84th minute by Alfonso Pedraza (not rated).+ Find the results and the Champions League standings on Maxifoot And for you, who were the best and worst players of the match?
