Kompany explains: Why Bayern struggled so much against Hoffenheim | OneFootball

Bayern managed to win the away game against TSG Hoffenheim, but struggled for a long time. According to Vincent Kompany, the "hype" after the victory over FC Chelsea also played a role.

Four games, four wins – the record in the Bundesliga couldn't be better for FC Bayern. Although they had a tough time during the away game against TSG Hoffenheim at times, a Harry Kane in top form secured the victory for the German record champions (4:1). After the match, Vincent Kompany was asked about his team's performance.

Regarding how his team dealt with the poor start, he said: "With experience and quality. I told Christian [Hoffenheim's coach] that they were better than us in the first half. In the second half, we responded and played very well. I am very pleased with the victory."

Bayern's "Hype about the Chelsea Victory"

The Bayern coach further explained: "I wasn't surprised [by the difficult first half]. We had just come off a tough game against Chelsea during the week, with all the hype about the victory, and then we came here to a difficult venue. I said before the game that Hoffenheim had won all their games, including the preparation matches, except against Frankfurt."

According to Kompany, the Munich team "remained calm in the difficult moments and did what we can in the second half." Bayern now stands at the top of the Bundesliga table with twelve points. Next week, the German champions will host Werder Bremen at the Allianz Arena (Friday, 8:30 PM).

In the Champions League, the action continues the following week with an away game in Cyprus (Pafos FC). There too, the Munich team is in a good position after the 3:1 victory over FC Chelsea.
