FC Bayern, News: Oliver Kahn calls for an increase in performance

After the 1-0 win at SC Freiburg, CEO Oliver Kahn called for FC Bayern Munich to improve their performance in view of the Champions League quarter-final first leg against Manchester City on Tuesday.

“The attitude was right, with a more consistent exploitation of chances, the victory could have been even clearer,” he wrote on Twitter: “Now we’re looking forward to the quarter-finals in the Champions League. But against Manchester City we’ll have to go a step further. “

Bayern had already missed the best chance in the last few encounters and that was one of the reasons why they were eliminated from the DFB Cup. City, on the other hand, is in outstanding form. On Saturday, the Skyblues won an impressive 4-1 against FC Southampton.

No matter where he works, you can see his handwriting,” he said and raved about today’s city coach: “The three years were with him special for me. I had a lot of great coaches, but from a football point of view he was the best.”
