FC Bayern won their opening match in the Champions League against FC Chelsea with a 3-1 victory – and coach Vincent Kompany was very satisfied after the final whistle.
Vincent Kompany praised his team after FC Bayern's 3-1 victory in the Champions League against FC Chelsea.
"Performance-wise, a lot had to go right today to win this game," Kompany explained to DAZN: "It was highly intense, I felt that from the sidelines. But it was also fun."
The Belgian highlighted the mix of consistency and joy of play: "The guys not only fulfilled their task but also showed joy in playing and deservedly won."
Kompany emphasized how challenging the task against Chelsea was: "We've already had some tests: Tottenham in preparation, Stuttgart, Leipzig. None of these were easy tasks. Today it was Chelsea, the Club World Champion."
The coach particularly liked his players' attitude: "But the concentration was very, very good, and that allowed us to continue our game and show a very stable performance." In conclusion, he emphasized: "We keep going."
Captain Manuel Neuer said after the game: "I liked it very much. The game is already a big challenge – you know you're playing against the Club World Champion. And of course, we know what form Chelsea has had in the past. That's why it's good that we also won our previous games, used this momentum, and are trying to build on it. We're glad we were able to shape the first game at home like this. We're riding a positive wave now, and we want to keep it positive for as long as possible."

Harry Kane analyzed: "Top performance. This is a really good team – we talked before the game about playing against the Club World Champion. We had to be fully present from the start – and we were."
