Bayern Munich defeated Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) 2-1 in this round’s key UEFA Champions League match. After the game, Vincent Kompany talked about related topics in an interview.
— The Champions League title?
“The Champions League title is not decided yet. Otherwise, Paris Saint-Germain would have won it last season. What matters now is striving to qualify for the next stage, and we have taken a very positive step. We must maintain this form so that we can compete for the title at the crucial moment.”
— About this match?
“We got three points, which is good. But no one wins trophies in November. We must stay calm and focus on the next game. Recently, we have gone through various situations, and we have dealt with them all well. We made a lot of rotations on Saturday, and the players stepped up; today we had to play with 10 men for 45 minutes, and we also managed it. This gives us a lot of confidence.”
— 16 consecutive wins?
“I always tell my players: ‘When the outside world hypes you up, don’t believe it—you’re not that good; when you lose or perform poorly, don’t think you’re terrible—you’re not that bad.’ I always keep this in mind. Now we have won 16 games in a row. But from tomorrow, everything resets, and we have to win the next game.”
