Vincent Kompany, the coach of Bayern Munich, praised Luis Díaz’s energy as the team seeks a return to victory in the Bundesliga. Despite a recent draw against Union Berlin, which ended their ten-match winning streak, Kompany remains hopeful. Bayern faces Freiburg on November 22, and he believes Díaz’s positive impact will be crucial, especially after his recent performances with the Colombian national team.
Bayern Munich’s Challenge and Expectations
After a 2-2 draw with Union Berlin, Bayern is eager to reclaim its winning form. The team had previously enjoyed an impressive streak of ten consecutive victories. They prepare to face Freiburg with reinvigorated spirits, particularly with Luis Díaz back from international fixtures.
Key Player: Luis Díaz
- Goals Scored: 6
- Assists: 4
Díaz recently scored against Australia during an international friendly, boosting his confidence. Kompany emphasized the importance of managing the workload for Díaz, stating that his energy is essential for the team. The coach mentioned, “The match against Arsenal isn’t our focus right now; we want to win against Freiburg first.”
Upcoming Challenges
Unfortunately, Díaz will be unavailable for the upcoming Champions League match due to a suspension. This sanction follows a red card received during the match against PSG, where he had netted two goals in a 2-1 victory.
Kompany confirmed the one-match suspension, expressing hope for minimal disciplinary action. He stated, “I would be disappointed if my information about the suspension were incorrect.” This uncertainty affects the team’s planning but does not diminish their immediate goals in the Bundesliga.
As Bayern prepares for the match against Freiburg, they aim to utilize Díaz’s skills to regain dominance in the league while navigating the challenges ahead in both domestic and international competitions.
