Problems and Victory for FC Bayern Munich

Introduction

FC Bayern Munich won a game against VfL Wolfsburg. But the team has some problems with the players and the coach.

Main Body

Coach Vincent Kompany and player Tom Bischof do not agree. Bischof thinks the team is bad at defending. He says the players do not run fast after they lose the ball. Kompany says this is wrong. He thinks the team cannot always run fast. In the game, Harry Kane missed a penalty. Then, a player named Jeanuël Belocian stepped on the penalty spot. This is not good behavior. But the coach and the goalkeeper, Jonas Urbig, were not angry. They said Wolfsburg was just very stressed. Kompany said the team protects the penalty spot more in big games. For example, they would be more careful against Paris Saint-Germain.

Conclusion

The team had some fights and a missed penalty. But FC Bayern Munich won the game. Jonas Urbig played very well in defense.
