Bayern Munich boss proud of incredible comeback against PSG in UCL semi-final: “We didn’t high-five them on their way to Budapest!”
FC Bayern Munich Board Member for Sport Max Eberl found himself simply awestruck by the grandiose spectacle that was Tuesday evening’s Champions League match against PSG at the Parc des Prince. The nine-goal thriller Eberl’s Bundesliga outfit and the Ligue 1 champions certainly counts as one of the best matches in the entire history of the UCL competition.
The fact that Bayern fought back from a three-goal deficit en-route to a 5-4 loss serves as another amazing feat for Bayern in their already historic season. Conceding five goals against the opponent matters much less in such a context. Eberl was quick to point out that this left him feeling very optimistic heading into next Wednesday’s encounter at the Allianz Arena
“We proved that we could hurt PSG today,” the 52-year-old remarked in the mixed zone. “We’re one goal behind. We just have to win to send it into extra time. If we win by more than one goal, we’re through. We just have to make up a one-goal deficit.”
“In all honesty, we’re talking about a Champions’ League semi-final,” Eberl answered when a reporter asked how seriously Bayern would have to take the defensive lapses. “We’re talking about an opponent who can [obviously] play football as well.
“I think that we courageously stood up to them,” Eberl continued. “And we have a return leg coming up. We’ll see how that goes.“
The final score was Bayern Munich 4, PSG 5.

“For me it was just a ver special football game,” Eberl noted when again confronted with the question of the five goals conceded. “One can seek out the rough edges if one really wants to.
“For me, it was just a fabulous game of football between two fantastic teams who really wanted to play attacking football,” Eberl continued. “Two teams who threw everything they had at it.
“I myself haven’t seen many football games on such a level with such high quality,” Eberl concluded. “Accordingly, I’m really looking forward to the return leg.“
“Empty?” Eberl sardonically asked when a reporter asked if the team was completely empty and exhausted after such a game. “We were trailing 5-2 and now it’s 5-4. [We didn’t] just let PSG cruise and high five them after the 5-2 as if they were already headed [to the Final] at Budapest.
“When one comes back against such a backdrop, that’s something very special,” Eberl continued. “That speaks to the character of this team. No question we’ll be needing that [sort of character] in the return leg.
“We’re one goal behind,” Eberl concluded. “We know what we have to do. The Allianz Arena is also a stronghold and we can get our turn at celebrating [next week].“
