Bayern Munich recorded a resounding victory in the first match of the Champions League group stage: 4-0. In their own stadium, Atlético Madrid was treated to a hefty defeat on Wednesday by goals from Kingsley Coman (2x), Leon Goretzka and Corentin Tolisso. Afterwards, it is mainly about a remarkable statement by Thomas Müller during the match, when the attacker allegedly committed a foul on Kieran Trippier.

After twenty minutes of play, with a 0-0 score, Müller seemed to pass the ball to Joshua Kimmich correctly. During the performance, the German came into contact with Trippier, but the back came too late to intercept the ball. However, referee Michael Oliver was of the opinion that Müller had committed a foul by entering the game too hard and awarded the player yellow.

Müller did not understand the decision, according to his words after Oliver’s decision. “Are you kidding? What’s going on here? How is this possible? We’re playing against the biggest villains in Europe and I’m getting yellow for this?” Said Müller. Afterwards, Hansi Flick does not want to say much about the incident. Actually, the trainer likes that everything is clearly audible now that there are no fans present.

“You can say that we came out very physically after the incident with Müller, but that is also because we played against a team that is aggressive on the ball. Thomas coaches the team and motivates his teammates continuously. We had to shed our teeth. “, says Flick, who is happy with the big victory. The trainer is full of praise for the efforts of his team and hands out compliments to Coman, among others.

“Three goals in the last two Champions League matches. If he continues like this, we will be very satisfied”, Flick laughs at Coman. Teammate Goretzka is also happy with the performance of the Frenchman, who started because Leroy Sané was injured and Serge Gnabry had to be quarantined. “He is a player who needs confidence. He is a special talent. Kingsley played a fantastic game.”
