Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany reflected on his team’s 3-2 DFB Pokal win over Union Berlin, praising his players while expressing frustration over a controversial penalty:
“I thought we did many things right in the first half. The second half was a fight,” Kompany said. “We defended their set pieces well and were unlucky with the penalty. For me, that was not a penalty on Harry Kane. His arm and the opponent’s arm were in the same position. When you go for the ball with momentum, there shouldn’t be a penalty. I’m a former defender and am familiar with such situations.”
Looking ahead, Kompany highlighted Bayern’s focus on the bigger picture. “I hope we’ll continue and come back to Berlin [for the final]. Such games are part of the journey,” he added.
The comments underline Kompany’s blend of tactical insight, defender’s perspective, and determination to reach the DFB Pokal final despite a chaotic encounter.
