FC Bayern might need to fix up its defense.

In the last few weeks, though, Bayern Munich has been giving up far more goals than it did earlier in the season — a trend that Kompany does not necessarily like, but is also not worried about after his team’s 3-3 draw with Heidenheim. “I was a defender and I know how it feels to concede many goals in one week.

We’ve already talked about this topic last year and said that we have to stay calm. We then kept 8 clean sheets in a row, I think. We’ve always shown a reaction to setbacks, and now we have to do it again.

We have to show a reaction as defenders, as a team – there’s no better time than Wednesday to do it,” said Kompany (as captured by @iMiaSanMia ). Now, Bayern Munich will face the attacking buzzsaw that is Paris Saint-Germain. As they say, there is no rest for the weary.
