Bayern are favorites in the Champions League final against PSG. Of course, Oliver Kahn, legend of the Bavarian goal and new member of the club's board of directors, does not trust a hair. The former goalkeeper appeared at a press conference on Thursday and did not hesitate to warn his team of the quality of the Parisian trident in attack formed by Neymar, Mbappé and di María. “PSG have players to hurt us. If we lose the ball in the dangerous areas, Mbappé and Neymar will come out like bullets“Kahn said of Munich's alleged weakness to the contra.
The former goalkeeper is sure that it will be “a completely different match from Lyon” and pointed out that PSG stars “tend to hit the mark when they get the chance.” Of course, Kahn trusts the qualities of his Bayern. “The players are aware of it. I'm sure Hansi Flick will prepare the game perfectly and it will equip the players with the right tools to stop PSG attackers. Ours will go out onto the pitch and know: we have no margin for error“, he assured.
At the same time, Kahn, known for his self-esteem, explained that Bayern do not have to hide from the might of the Parisians in attack. “They have Neymar and Mbappé in attack, okay. But we have Lewandowski. We have Gnabry. We have Neuer. We have a lot of good players. PSG is an institution, but we don't have to hide “, underlined the new manager of the Bundesliga champion. Kahn, an example of Bayern's claw and aggressiveness from before, did not hesitate to compare Bayern today with his who, 19 years ago, won the club's fourth Champions League in a final that was decided on penalties. “The players are very hungry. Many of them have not yet won this title. It's amazing how they got into the final. It was a mix between maximum professionalism and the unwavering desire to achieve that goal. The boys want the orejona. And they will do whatever it takes to achieve the goal, “he concluded.
