Honestly, a quick ball over the top could expose this press. Sané had a couple chances to do that but unfortunately misplaced his touches.
Have to give credit to Gala, they are making it very difficult and we are lucky to go into the half even. But we need to be better on the ball. Midfield injuries and missing Upa is very huge right now. Goretzka would do really well today. More disappointing is games like these it sometimes feels like no one on the pitch cares. We just want fight, that's what we love about Bayern.
It is what it is, hopefully Tuchel has something up his sleeve.
