Bayern and PSG faced off in the Club World Cup quarter-final without extra time, and the key events occurred late in the second half, reported Euro-football.ru.
As a result, the Parisian team defeated Munich with two goals. Euro-Football.Ru analyzed the reasons behind Bayern’s defeat. The overall rating at the start of the game was 6.0, with a maximum of 10 points.
Harry Kane received a 5.0 rating. The central striker of Bayern cannot be blamed for inactivity — he made several impactful moves: twice advancing the ball through dribbling in the first half, and intercepting a pass from Nuno Mendes in his own box in the second.
However, he lost the ball in a critical moment at midfield, leading to a fast PSG counterattack and a goal by Duen. Bayern fans briefly celebrated after Kane's shot hit the post, but he was offside and the goal was ruled out.
At the end of the match, the referee canceled a penalty awarded to Kane. Had he scored, the score would have been 2:1, and Bayern would likely have had no time left for another attack. Manuel Neuer was rated 4.5.
The 39-year-old goalkeeper initiated attacks with long passes but later misjudged and gave the ball to Kvaratskhelia. Though he missed, the goal was eventually scored by Dembele.
Ousmane failed to shoot into the far corner — had he succeeded, Neuer would have been primarily at fault. On Duen’s decisive goal, Neuer expected a far-post shot but was late to react to the near post due to slipping.
Konrad Laimer received a 4.0 rating. He lost all 5 ground duels but won 3 aerial ones. He stopped Kvaratskhelia during an attack, but Bayern’s other defenders did not do enough.
In the first half, he supported attacks on the right wing and made several good passes, though only 1 out of 5 long passes was accurate.
Due to a second yellow card in the tournament, he might miss the next stage. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
