Konrad Laimer played every single minute of Bayern Munich's Champions League triumph over Chelsea, playing at right back and left back after Josip Stanišić had to be subbed out due to injury. The Austrian commented that the team can still improve in some areas, some of which were evident throughout the match.
"It was very intensive. Both teams have a good style of play," Laimer began (as captured by @iMiaSanMia). "We did better today and deserved to win. We stayed focused after their goal and simply played our game. We always want to play our game regardless of the opponent. Of course, not everything is perfect, there are things we can always do better."
The Rekordmeister have won all their games in the season so far, and Laimer will want to continue that streak in the Bundesliga, at the weekend away to Hoffenheim. The following week, the Bavarians will host Werder Bremen.
Bayern Munich hosted Chelsea in one of the most intriguing matchups on the second round of Matchday 1 in the Champions League's League Phase.
The Bavarians were able to tough out a rugged 3-1 victory in a match that was not all that pleasing to the eye. Harry Kane's brace and an own goal from Chelsea paced Bayern Munich. While Chelsea did some good things (including a terrific first half counterattack for a goal), the Londoners did not have enough gas in the tank to keep up with the German powerhouse.
