Bayern Munich’s hopes of progressing to the next stage of the Champions League were dealt a severe blow when they were thrashed 3-0 by Manchester City in the first quarter-final match at the Etihad Stadium tonight.


After the match, Bayern captain Joshua Kimmich was unhappy with the way the game went and the result:

“The first 60 minutes were very, very good. Then, just like against Freiburg, we were hit by another long-range goal out of the blue,” Kimmich said, as quoted by FCBinside.de.

“Before that, we had a great chance to make it 1-0 through Jamal Musiala. After that we were more error-prone. Until the 2-0 goal, it was an even match. The result is bitter, of course.

“After the half-time break, we still believed we could turn the game around. The 2-0 goal came after a mistake, which of course is punished at this level,” added Kimmich, referring to Dayot Upamecano’s individual error prior to Man City’s second goal.
