Barcelona deserved a goal, but Pedri was atrocious lol. He had 0.68 xG and only 0.04xGOT. They played him into amazing positions and he just bottled it all. In general Barca had 2xG but only 0.79xGOT. Bayern were the other way around. 1.58 xG, but 2.37 xGOT. That was the difference in the game. As well as Upa and Lucas having great last second tackles.

Unfortunately, Barca plays as always for the last 5-6 years - without clear idea what to do to score goals. Xavi was top 3 midfielders at his time , but he is weak manager. There can't be any comparison with Guardiola. Barca is my favourite team , but the truth is that we can't play against top teams. Again and again i see these stupid passes across the field without speed , vision and agression. After Luis Enrique Barca plays awfully.

Well the title could easily be, "Nagelsmann's Impressive Tactical Changes Get Bayern The Win" Goretzka coming in at halftime and Mazraoui getting instructed to invert higher changed the game. The corner to get the goal came from Goretzka forcing a save from Ter Stegan and the team play for the 2nd goal was a result of the changes. I think after the two goals, Bayern felt comfortable enough to see the game out rather than go for more.

Bayern München weaknesses= - Müller and Mane playing to similar - In the first half a classic 6 or holding midfielder like (for example) Javi Martinez could have stopped some of these counterattacks coming from the central area. - Sabitizer once again playing decent but without charisma and aggression. Sometimes being a mini Kroos isn't enough. The real Kroos also does these long distance shots....but with precision leading to goals. Altogether a great game. With the better team winning. Barca and Bayern both still need time to grow as teams...get use too having or not having Lewandowski. Barca needs a 2nd player to step up when Lewandowski is lacking. He used to have Thomas Müller as false 9 right behind him. I don't see a player like that in Barcelona....one that concentrated on assists and pressing, making rooms for Lewa - but then when needed is a secondary striker that can score when all else fails.

I dont really understand Xavis reason to push up the cms like that. Its what Guardiola does but only when the fullbacks move inside to still have a 2 3 buildup structure. How Xavi does it basically leaves the whole midfield empty and puts enormous pressure on the gk, cbs or fbs to play very risky passes, also it leaves the team vulnerable in transitions through the center. As a result building from the back and controlling the game and transitions is difficult .

[@pnau92]

Inverted fullbacks require tecnhique and passing range as they are essentially a dm when they move inside to cover. Best example is Kimmich and the transition he (with help of pep) made from fb to dm. City have Cancelo (and zinchenko before) to do this. Alonso is a wingback who's main strength is stamina and licking that side line. Maybe Kounde could, but I think Xavi is reserving cb position for Kounde. You definitely need a RB, but it looks like Xavi is looking for a inverted rb type.

[@JayzsMr]

@@pnau92 Barca have enough players capable of playing like that. Guardiola used Walker there who is worse technically than any fullback barca have. Sergi Roberto for example is perfect for the role. Regardless if you use the inside fullback or not its just that Guardiola seems to have strict rules. Pushing up the cms means someone else moves into the cm Position like the fullbacks, using the cms deeper means one forward in the half space and overlapping fullbacks. In Xavis barca this is all much more chaotic and disorganized and i think this will be punished by top teams especially in transitions like we could already see against bayern.

[@pnau92]

@@JayzsMr Thank you for the good discussion. I can see that you are more knowledgeable tactically than the average footie fan. You are right that Sergio Roberto definitely is perfect for that role, but to be fair to Xavi, SR has been really injury prone since Xavi took over. I can see why Xavi is careful with introducing SR back. Apart of SR, there aren't many good options. After thinking about it further, there are multiple ways of covering for the attacking CM's. Guardiola has been doeing it with City as well this season with Bernardo playing as a winger and Cancelo sometimes pushing higher up on the overlap. Bernardo then falls back and covers like a CM. Obviously, this would require Xavi to bench one of Dembele or Raphinha and put de Jong on the wing as Dembele or Raphinha would never work as playmaking CMs. Also, Walker is and will never be an adequate inverted fullback. The only reason Guardiola does make him cover is because of Walkers speed to cover fast opposing attackers (like against Vinicius in Champions league las season and saint maximin this year). You can see this in his stats as well.

[@moezbd]

Sthing very important we shouldn't forget was that Barça defenders were HIGHLY agressive against Bayern attackers (until the 1st goal) , which allowed them to push high and stay 4vs4 in the defense and win almost all the duels. This reminded me of Pep team in which players were very agressive. Tactically, Xavi outclassed Nagelsmann. But the spaniard should have cheer up his players when Barça conceeded the 1st goal. His players had spent a lot of energy and the conceeded goal was mentally hard to take. They obviously needed someone to tell them to stick to the plan and stay focused in the game. I remember Nagelsmann saying that most part of managing football teams was psychological, not tactical. Unlike all the analysis that I saw, Bayern (incl Uppamecano and Lucas) step up after scoing the 1st goal, not with the start of the 2nd half. Anyway good game for the Barça, if they manage to improve their finishing within high intensity games, they will be part of the top 4-5 teams among Man City, Bayern, Real

[@nelsongondwe2772]

Bayern would have scored five or four if they had a proper number they wasted a lot of chances in the second half. One of the most important things I observed is that Bayern played and outshined Barcelona due to experience and Barcelona were like a team with lots of talent but lacking experience. Now I know that experience is better than talent. I have seen the same thing happen to Manchester City happen when they played Real Madrid last season; Real Madrid beat Manchester City due to their experience. U might be not much talented but experience makes perform better than the one who is much talented. This is what separated Bayern and Barcelona.

[@Sprv_lincoln]

There several items that came up into my mind while watching (the whole game I could get rid of these) * Bayern was really aggressive in the midfield especially. Kimmih and musiala especially. They kick, push, beat Barca in order to make them panic * There was always lack of players to progress from the center, especially in the first third, busquets was closely followed by young musiala (indeed good game for youngster). * It seems like physics was a weak part for Barca midfield. They had strong opponents * Dembele 😔. If you are not able to dribble, just save the ball and don't cut the team, but he is not....

This game was barca's to win. Simple. A big club like that should punish their opponent with the chances they got but failed and rather got punished. It is what it is. That barca team is growing tho. This experience is good for them. Their young players will learn more from the misses than the hits. This will harden them more and congrats to Bayern they did well. You have to win one way or another and they did.

[@ebuakilian6049]

Pedr, Gavi, Raphinha and Dembele are very essential for Barca, these players are full of talents and good dribbling and passing tactics. They need physical build up. They need muscles, they need to build their strength. They need more time in the gym and physical building centers. Look at Davies, added to his good play he has more "power". Football is sometimes nothing with " power " Strength, muscles.

[@АнтонКравченко-г6н]

[@opreva]

When you have Neuer or Courtois, the opponent would need to sweat blood to score goals. Stegen is not at that level and this is crucial. Busquets as a "pivote" is a weakness against physical teams like BM, cause he struggles to follow the opponent's midfielders on a back and forth game. Barça should arrange someone else at this position or make a transition with De Jong. Very good analysis!

Sabitzer -> Goretzka change was gamechanger, Goretzka encouraged the team to shoot nearby the enemy's goal and was hard working in defence and midfield. If Sabitzer would stay on the pitch Gavi and Pedri and Busquest would still be dominating the midfield and prob they would have much more goal scoring attempts

[@marokkino2004]

For Barcelona it is very important that the defense shines like the offensive line, to win the champions league title. Bayern has suprised me in the 2nd half, i was previously afraid because of their sloppy form. And by the way...luck is needed to win the title, ask Real Madrid.

It would have been sooooo fascinating if Barca had Mazraoui instead of Kounde at RB and and CB pairing of Kounde and Araujo. Mazraoui could invert or overlap giving Barca another rotation. If mazraoui inverted, there would be more central progression. But if he overlapped, Gavi or Raphinha could drop deep to assist build up and mazraoui I could overlap Raphinha of Gavi, whoever stayed higher. I wonder if Xavi made a mistake by not starting Roberto in that role. Also, going forward, Ansu has to start on the left. He just gives so much more than Dembele or Raphinha on the left. More final product threat along with more rotational options. Next year, if messi comes back, imagine if Barca had messi starting ahead of Lewy in a false 9. Barca would have most certainly annihilated bayern.

He was the most successful trainer Bayern ever had, I believe the time of winning every year the meisterschaft is over and also international they'll going down, step by step. Nagelsmann will get fired latest after the 23/24 season if not earlier, Hansi was the best and very respected by the team but the arrogance of the management is not to stand

It was never the midfield that screwed up today, on the contrary the Barca midfield dominated the first 60 minutes of the game. The weakest link was ofcourse the fullbacks. Kounde was not a natural Rb and was played there to fill in a 3 man CB.
