PSG had several chances at the end, but before that they couldn't complete simple passes. If Tuchel comforted his players they may have gotten the last second equalizer, as strange as it sounds, cause then they would've had more chances and one of them would've converted
I really don't understand how people compare Neuer to the likes of Ederson, Becker, etc. The only people you can compare him to is the likes of Iker Casillas and Buffon.
True that neymar pass to mbappe would have been completed if any other keeper stood instead of Neuer..Dont know whether he is the goat but he definitely is the keeper of the decade
Everyone talks about Muller exploiting space, but few mention his vision. He knows everything and it's been Radio Muller this whole tournament. Since he's doing the bossing around on the field, he knows where to go with the ball.
7 damn years we had to endure(Bayern fans) from Madrid, Barca Fans about the UCL. All the memes and Jokes 🤦🏻and now we won the trebel🔥🔥🔥 #InFlickWeTrust
@@Rajesh-xt2oe 12 year old kid? Kid first go to the era of 2008-2012, though they lost 2 Semis but they were the most feared team in the world, same for Madrid 2014-2018, see Arsenal vs Barca 2010 (2-2), you'll se the real domination in first half.
I am so happy for lewandowski, after so many years of hard work and persevering he finally gets his hand on the trophy. He should have won the Ballon d'or after the remarkable season he made.
Well done. I think there are several reasons why Bayern won it: 1) Neuer is back to prime Neuer and that includes the ball at his feet. Pressing Bayern is asking for trouble because you got 3 quality dribblers in Neuer, Alaba, and Davies. They feel comfortable absorbing pressure and moving between the lines. Which brings me to: 2) Thiago being a midfield boss. If you pressure Bayern, Neuer is going to find Thiago and he is so shifty that he can make room for himself to find the angles on the wings. He probably played the best ball of his career that led to the school. 3) PSG had no body to snuff out the attack in the midfield. All the money is up front. PSG did not strike fear into anyone going through the midfield. Somebody like Javi Martinez in 2013 or Kante at Leicester is what they need to break up any line breaking passes and start the track meet for Neymar and Mbappe 4) Bayern's high line gave PSG defenders no time to make good outlet passes. Davies is so fast that he covers so much ground. He can pressure and force passes into the midfield and then be back to his position in a few seconds.
Many are just looking at PSG's fluffed chances and claiming that it was a close match; in reality, Flick completely outmaneuvered Tuchel. What a fantastic team this Bayern is, always maximizing their strengths and preventing even the best of teams from exploiting their few weaknesses. If Pavard can stay fit next year, then they will be even more fearsome. Tolisso should be allowed to play more. Thiago won't be missed because Kimmich is the better CDM. 1 more depth signing at CM and they will have a squad without weaknesses.
@Formerly known as ZamDd He's excellent but not irreplaceable. Kimmich is one of the best CDMs in the world. Thiago will be a huge boost to Liverpool though.
@@TheSHIELDCap Yes, I think so, as a CDM, his defensive positioning and anticipation is excellent, but he is best at restarting attacks after winning back balls. His vision, creativity and technique make him one of the best in the world.
Bayern does some of the highest pressing in the history of high pressing. Their back line plays so high, people actually thought PSG is gonna punish them,, but they forgot that there is Manuel Neuer between the sticks😉💯
Big reason for this is because Neuer covers more ground than most keepers. His talent allows them to play very high. Along with Alaba and Davies being very quick to get back into position.
maybe if psg had a coach like guardiola that knows how to play in half spaces and also has the players with technique, finishing and pace to capitalize on the depth inbehind bayern lines, the story might have been different
@@natebosco8654 I think that's the key, defeating this Bayern would need players who have the ability to go out of the pressing and great delivery, players like prime Xavi or Iniesta that come to mind. I don't say that having great midfielders is the only way, but teams do need to find a way to get out of that press before talking about exploiting Bayern's high line.
@Habib Ridho Those are not the first players I would've thought of. Xavi and Iniesta were the incarnation of Tiki Taka and Bayerns Gegenpressing was designed to counter that style specificly.
There is no team who could sustain this attacking pressure that Bayern is putting on his opponents in every game. They are machines, not footballers 🔥🔥🔥
Honestly, the level of play was greater than the scoreline tells. However, the players that can score on either side can change the game with one touch. Boring game for some but tactically it was very tense. One pass could change the whole game
@@ErikGinting I think he got a point. He said "some". It is true the game itself wasn't boring at all, in perspective of fan that understand or love tactics. But some people can't enjoy the tactical side, they just want a match that entertain them (a lot of goals, flicks, acrobatic saves, etc.). This is why they will love a game like when Bayern beat Barca 8-2, but bored when see how tense the tactical battle between PSG vs Bayern.
Crazy. Every time Barcelona beats Bayern in any knockout leg they end up winning the champions and every time Bayern beats Barca In any knockout leg they win the champions lol
Whoever beats barcelona or bayern they end up winning the champions league in 2010 inter Milan did that defeated both barca in semis and bayern in the finals 2012 Chelsea did that,in 2013 bayern did that,2014 real Madrid,2015,barca,2016 Atletico Madrid did that they were unlucky in the final,2017 real Madrid and juventus,2018 real Madrid,2019 Liverpool did that by defeating both barca and bayern and in 2020 bayern Munich did it
I agree. PSG had several great looks, especially one for Mbappe right in front of the goal. Gotta give it up to Bayern. They were the best side in the CL.
I don't agree. Tuchel did not get his tactics right. He played into Bayern's hands. Had they been more clinical in the first half it could have been three or four. In actual fact, their final ball in the first half was a bit poor. Lewandowski's chance was a good one. Paris' best chance came from a Bayern mistake. Yes they should have scored, but hardly a result of tactical success.
I think Neuer didn't only have an impact on the game with his saves, but also with his feet and sweeping abilities. When PSG pressed high, Bayern could easily break the press and get through the front line, which Leipzig wasn't able to. Also the experience and European culture of a huge club made it even easier for the Baverians to be the Europe's best.
Agreed, the scary thing about Neuer is that he can immediately transition into a build-up attack play. By passing back to Boateng or Kimmich or Thiago, Bayern can take advantage of the already high lines into an attacking formation.
I knew this was going to be a lot closer than many had anticipated. PSG missed Verratti a lot. He is a player that could've helped them break the press and advance up the pitch through central areas with his close control and ball carrying abilities. Maybe Ander Herrera would've missed out on the start as Paredes offered the same high work rate, physicality yet better technique and a higher ability to beat the press. PSG also suffered from not having a target man to go long towards. They did compete well for second balls though. I was also a bit surprised that Mbappe spent so much time against Kimmich. Yes he would have a clear speed advantage agaisnt the versatile German as a giant a comparative advantage at best over Davies... however early in the game Davies got booked. Tughel could've pitted Mbappe's pace and trickery agaisnt the now more cautious Davies who was key to creating overloads on his flank... Di Maria with his craft and guile would've been a decent matchup agaisnt Kimmich with Neymar able to drift to whichever side he saw fit to target at that moment. PSG seemed a bit overwhelmed on thos occasion as the tie wore on. They scuffed quite a few chances you would normally expect them to finish. Neuer came up big no doubt. The Bayern machine was fitter and just relentless and simpley forced PSG into mistakes like the way they created the penalty box overload that freed Coman for his back post header. A very entertaining math even if it wasn't as goal laden as many assumed it would've been. Great analysis too.
Well said, PSG did miss Verratti a lot, he could've made it easier for PSG to have a link between the midfielders and the offensive trio, instead of their defense to bypass the line. They also needed somebody to make the full backs to play instead of just trying to protect them, which i think Hererra and Peredes did, but couldn't make them play as he would. PSG was lucky that Flick did flop a bit by substituting Coman who was a threat to PSG, instead of introducing Coutinho in the number 10 role of Muller, and Perisic to cause havoc where Gnabary should have caused.
@@olebogengthekisho3594 Well why doesn't anyone say the obvious and admit that PSG would have been better without Neymar? It was clear that they needed to match Bayern's midfield. They should have played Mbappe down the middle to push that high line back, then got Veratti and Herrera in the middle and possibly Icardi in the 2nd half. Neymar ended up being a liability.
Both team played great, but in the bayern were the better team and deserved to win, bayern had 62 percent ball possession had more shots and a 3 big chances created with 2 big chanses missed compared to psg which had 2 big chanses created with to big chanses missed. So basically if both teams finished their big chanses the match would've ended 3-2 for bayern.
What a club Bayern are. Joined Barca on being the two clubs with 2 trebles. As a cule I was offended by the remarks Uli Hoeness and Lothar Matthaus said, but they were not wrong. Bayern were a machine in 2020. They are the standard of this decade
@@Kriscur20 Matthäus is a clown and has nothing to do with bayern. He is an ex player/legend but he doesnt work for bayern or has any active relations.
Neuer being at his best and the likes of Choupo Moting and Mbappe not finishing well made them lose,you can't be missing that many chances against a team like Bayern.This wasn't the best of Bayern but they didn't need their best to win.That's how good they are
Bayern was really good with their pressing yesterday. In spite of all the muck being thrown at their defence, they conceded only 1 goal in open play against Barcelona, PSG and Lyon combined. Is that not impressive? The fact is that they have so many ways of dominating the midfield and allowing their fullbacks to dominate the attack and allow for full verticality. Flick has easily been the best manager this year. What a change after Kovac's embarrassments.
Actually I think that PSG played a great game considering they were meeting THE team of the moment. Tactically they did OK. Loosing 1-0 to the Bayern 2020 squad is noting to be shameful about. They could have won this game. They had their chances.
@@SKLLER-le2ds At that level a single mistake or great play can make the difference between winning or loosing. I say Bayern if Neuer is in shape and Manchester if they can overcome the pressure. But I agree with you Chelsea and PSG have their chances too.
Bayern can do this pushing tactic thanks to Neuer, having a strong sweeper keeper than they can rely on really helps their spirit when bayern was pushing their enemies. Neuer also show masterclass in this game.
Bayern's highline is more a trap than a weakness. This makes teams prepare to punish their highline instead of playing to their own strengths. So has backfired because Bayern are willing to concede 1 or 2 but will definitely outscore anyone.
@@PowerControl It isn't a theory tbh, it's the truth. Bayern can easily concede 2 goals but score 6 goals against any side. This final was an exception though. It was more tactical than I thought it would be.
I'm impressed with the mistakes Paredes made in the played that led to Coman's goal. First he was in the wrong position before Kimich received, allowing Thiago to make that pass by covering the same space Marquinhos was already covering, then he doesn't press Kimich after Muller's touch even tough two of his teammates were covering the same area. The guy looked like a 10yo just following the ball.
Witnessed history, never even lost a damn game. For ppl who will see this years from now, Lewandowski deserved his Ballon D'or but sadly he got robbed :'( it would've been awesome to win the treble and get his very well deserved Ballon D'or at the same time. I doubt that he'll have a UCL season like this again Ffs the man is 32 years old and passed prime Messi's # of goals in a UCL and could've easily passed Ronaldos # with two fewer games this UCL season... he could've become the top goalscorer in UCL history and didn't get his Ballon D'or. Anyways besides what could've been I'm glad he and the team brought the treble a second time to Bayern and ill always be a proud Bayern fan for that
i really don't think those were intentional things. it's more like one guy has to cover a space that got free'd here and other a space there and then you end in such formation but, right after that, the formation comes to the normal 433 again (more of something like a 4 1 2 0 2 1 - when draxler entered, 4 1 1 1 2 1). the truth is that psg got completely lost after the goal, but it was already starting to happen before it - the offensive positional changes in the beginning of the second half may be what triggered it.
Gustavo Albericchi Du Rocher quite agreed mate!! But, as u see i am a barca fan ! So the way they use Jordi Alba to get upfield, most teams in Laliga this year stopped Barca (the 1-1 draw, and 2-1 loss) by bringing back their midfielder in defence to have 5 men at the back whenever Jordi Alba progressed, to stop his Overlap!! Same goes for Davies !!
This probably has happened because using two of what we call "second wheels" in Brazil ("steering wheels", the defensive midfielders that are the most used to attack, box to box, in contrast to the defensive midfielder that goes less into attack) is getting really common! Psg for an example uses 2 box to box guys and marquinhos as a first wheel. Liverpool does the same - 3 wheels and 3 attackers. Against barca's 4 3 3 formation, its really common that both second wheels are asked to cover the space that will be opened if an attacking winger presses our lateral defensive midfielders, so they'll cover that side if jordi attacks there and as a result, whenever he attacks, there will be 5 men on the defense, but if he doesnt attack, he will not go there - and thats why i mean we cant really say their formation was this. Analyzing barca's defense, for an example, in a lot of times they would use an attacking winger to cover the same space instead of a wheel, but it wouldnt mean that this guy would temporarily become a defender - at least for me. He would just hold the lateral defense attacks. I think its more like a POV, because yeah, we can say that they were at that formation in that small "cut" :) its just I'm not used to see it like this. For me its more like a "who will cover that space if it becomes free for them?" and "who will use that space if it becomes free for us?".
Bayern were solid defensively and Thanks to Nuere especially. PSG on the other hand pressed high with DMN but Bayern dominated the mids.. Great win for Bayern. And good analysis FMS
Well deserved win and treble from Bayern. Neuer, Thiago, Coman, and Kimmich in particular were fantastic. Mbappe and Neymar were underwhelming and wasteful to say the least. Shoutout to Thiago Silva put in a shift in his last game for PSG lmao. Kehrer was getting exposed not gonna lie. Lets put some respect on Flick's name, turned this whole Bayern team around when he took over.
great tactical breakdown . good work. It was an entertaining game last night . i thought PSG were the better side 1st half and create some good chances. Bayern weathered the storm and really came into the game second half.
The Problem was Bayern Played Not that will in Both halftimes.... they did so Many Mistakes in their Passing. But against the Ball they were quite ok. But it was a Final Game so i can Unterstand the pressure what they had felt espacially the younger guys
You've got a great tactical & analytical brain mate! I suggest you try applying for some collab coaching job. You'll get a decent club with this CV of youtube vids!
great analysis! though youve lacked to observe what psg's defense done right. defensively, psg gave very few spaces and despite the fact they did have to work the long passes a lot, bayern defensive lines were not on par with psg's attacking side. because of such good work defensively, bayern came clear (i mean, with time to think, aim and act) once at Coman's goal and second with Coman again some minutes later (almost the same way) both only on second half, and while Neymar had a very difficult shot and almost scored - like Lewa's bar shot, both on the first half - both Di Maria and Mbappé had very clean shots - again, with time to think, aim and execute on the first half. on first half, bayern playing volume was bigger, but psg's chances were clearer. hypothetically, if both teams had a cold hearted skilled striker on the clean situations, he would have scored twice for psg for sure, and no goal for bayern. both teams also had other dangerous moments but not that clear (without much space to think, aim and execute): those are defensive merits and not attacking demerits. so tactically speaking, psg on first half had some 20% less of ball posession and lost a lot of balls trying to attack but defensively, completely neutralized the machine that is bayern. i think very few people did notice this. 2nd half began with di maria and mbappé exchanging sides, which for me was clear to be the best choice from the start, not because of Davies's speed, but because Davies advances more, but it was very soon until they changed it again. i think what is likely to is that Di Maria is used to play bringing the ball towards the center, and his right foot is... we saw it, not trustworthy. what i mean is that it probably wasn't Tuchel's option - he would have went for Mbappé on Davies back too, but he hadn't had/didn't trust that he had/the player didn't trusted to be able to do what was necessary. i think that, at this moment, psg started to be a little less organized and brang their defensive lines onto their pitch not because of a tactical choice, but because they got a little lost and, despite not having suffered a lot of danger, until the last 10, 15 minutes where they were kind of more desperate, they done nothing offensively, too. and about this end, it showed that even this Bayern do get tense sometimes - like it was clear on lyon's first half too (not for Gnabry, though). for me tuchel's main mistake was neymar's position. he is in his peak phisically! if he is to fix the advancings of bayern defensive lines, should have worked as a fake 9 without the ball to fix them and as a 10 with it to populate the midfield and bring the defenders even closer to it. for me, neymar had to feel more responsible and i am not really sure that this is all on his lack of good, common sense. tuchel's mistake, for sure. very entertaining game tactically!
As a PSG fan, I would have liked to see Mbappe & Di Maria play to the wide spaces. Traditionally, these players look to cut in and create or shoot. However, this game showed that Bayern was committed to shutting down the interior space by condensing their defensive block. This tactic might have allowed PSG to exploit the deep wide spaces ti interplay and recycle the ball into more central spaces, where they could play more directly. Opportunities lost, but lessons learned. Allez PSG!
This excellent analysis just shows how much better Bayern were, inspite of a number of good chances for PSG. Imo Tuchel is a very poor manager, atleast from what I have seen in this tournament, he just relies on the individual brilliance of Neymar, Mbappe, ADM and their defence in order to get past mediocre opposition. From the lineup itself it was evident that they would cede the initiative to Bayern even though PSG are intrinsically not a counter attacking side. They should have tried to drop Herrera or Paredes into the tip of their defence in order to allow for better central progression, instead they played out foolishly to their useless fullbacks, Bernat and Kehrer. What a fantastic manager Flick is, really hope to continue to see him thrive on the biggest stages. His decision to use Coman's pace and the Muller-Goretzka pivot in order to exploit the lack of positioning discipline of PSG's midfield was inspired. He has easily been the best manager in the world since his appointment in November.
Idk how you can say Tuchel is a poor manager. Im not saying he's great but he's mostly unproven. We need to see him manage a team like Lyon before we make judgements. It's too easy in Ligue Un for PSG and in the Champions League, other than that 2-1 win iver Atalanta, played pretty well
@@anonymousperson3023 Yeah but they had a relatively easy run in the knockout stages. Tuchel just relied on his gifted frontline without specifying the right gameplan for them. That's a big sign of poor tactical management.
To me , the 2 Keys were thé exceptionnel Neuer and the poor Mpabbe, not only missing is occasion but as well not defending and pressing enough like Neymar and DM.
As always great analyses. In the end, experience wins this kind of games. Bayern exactly knew how PSG would play. And with their pressing play, they did not get much in trouble, al though PSG had some opportunities. Its funny how football adapts. Teams nowadays need to play almost the same way as a lot of winning teams. They all do press high and intens. You saw it with Barca, they literally dominated for so long, then Bayern, then City in the Premier League then Liverpool and now Bayern again.
Yesterday I saw a Neymar who worked more defensively than messi ans cr7 ever did. Was really surprised to see it. Still only Messi and cr7 will use all their chances
I mean it depends the situation. In a game like this you are correct. In a game where they are losing 4-1 or 3-0 then Messi drops his head big time (I mean look at the 8-2 Bayern match, he was captain and gave up at half time)
@@bananarama3624 This Barca or Juventus team is not a team with strong defence but PSG has it. Since the departure of many La Masias Messi has anticipted the decline of Barca. He is a GAME CHANGER, Talisman like CR7. Last night PSG defended very well otherwise Bayern would have scored plenty of goals. Sometimes if you have lead in first leg then you have to defend nicely, Roma or Liverpool collapse are examples of Failure of the defence , not the offensive side. How can you expect a team to score all the time. Barca did it in first leg but failed to defend it. Against Liverpool in the first leg Messi did score 2 goals. He has been carrying Barca as Ronaldo is carrying Juventus. Star players like Neymar and Mbappe are expected to score or create chances if they have a good defence. But they failed to do so.
Greatest club teams forever and ever (not in order): Liverpool 18'-current, Bayern 12'-13', Milan 88'-95', Ajax 95', Pep's Barca, Real Madrid 56'-60', Liverpool 77'-84', Barca 14'-17', Bayern 98'-01', Real Madrid 00'-03', Bayern 19'-20', Ajax 69'-74', Santos 60's, Benfica 60's. 👍 or a ❤ if you agree with that list.
@FMS Thanks for the fast analysis. On top of that, it is top class. Question: Bayern 2013 was considered one of the best CL of all time. Next to Pep's Barca. Flick's Treble Bayern. - With 11 straight win in CL in one campagne (record) - 43 goals in 10 games (record) - 4.3 gpg (record) - 28 wins out of 29 games What do you think about Flick Bayern? Are they the best team in club history? Or is a tream better than them?
Neuer was the biggest difference in this match. Few Keepers can basically play as sweeper like he does. This permits Flick to keep his high line tactic. Not counting the that he saved at least 2 goals. I believe that Neuer will be the model for the next generation keepers. A keeper that is obviously a great goal as well as and incredible ball handler.
Psg manager could have accepted more free role of possesion of midfielders and trying to push in out in the end when psg was under. Other then that Neuer did save bayern in that match, but I do not understand why specially mbappe continued shooting low when neuer took all does. I assume not pressure in big match and not totally fit after injury. Bayern won but psg had the most big chances, so yeah when they cannot score on does ofc Bayern wins. Bayern also pressed very well high, specially trying to lock down where psg has lost the ball low b4 and it was smart by the them. And alot more. This was a great final to watch tho!! :)
What could each Manager have done differently? Tuchel: Change Di Maria to the left as he doesn't have a right foot. Put Neymar on the right, because he might as well have been crap out there. Put Mbappe in the middle and play long from the back to force Bayern out of that high line, in order to create some space for the midfield. Bayern: better final ball in the first half. Alfonso should have overlapped much more and came inside far too often instead. Be more clinical.
An absolut disorganized PSG-Back in the box as Coman did the 1:0. All 7(!) PSG-Players are looking and moving towards the ball. PSG has on the right AND on the left wing of the box a 1:2-Situation (PSG Player against 2 Bayern Players). 4 PSG-Players in the middle are concentrated at the ball, no one looks back or to the side. No one organizes the behavior in the box. As Kimmich passes, there are 6 PSG and 5 Bayern players in the box. With a better organisation, the goal could be (easyl) avoided. Maybe it is also a question of fitness. Bayern had a better plan an an better organisation on the field, over the hole match time. So they win.
I think there's too much focus on tactics here when some really simple factors came into play. Bayern were more disciplined in their approach and had more energy in the start of the game. Both sides started with a similar approach of passing from the back but PSG were intimidated by Bayern's pressing and lost their willingness to continue passing out. Neymar become more disjointed in his positioning as the game went on so there was no reliable outlet other than MBappe. Some of PSG's passing was poor and there was still no plan for Thiago. So I think a lot of the performance difference came down to players not executing their individual assignments rather than any great tactical difference to begin with. Had Mbappe scored from that Bayern mistake in the first half, it would have been a different game completely. In the end, Bayern's tactics were superior and they were simply relentless. They should have won much easier - 1 nil flattered PSG - but Alfonso had a bad game for once and Kimpembe was magnificent,

Bayern played so risky. I mean they were so high positioned on the pitch. Any dispossession in midfield had meant endless space for Mbappe, Neymar or Di Maria to run into in the direction of the goal. You need big balls as a manager to let your team play like that vs. PSG. They also were lucky that Mbappe did not score shortly before half time. As you said a fit Mbappe had buried that shot in the net. Also Davies had some real defensive weaknesses in 1st half. But overall it was a very impressive performance and they deservedly won.
You forgot how Kimmich played deep asking for the ball from one side to another of the field while gnabry run with Lewandowski inside the goalkeeper area for a corner attack
PSG should have scored at least once in the 1st half after lot of giveaway from Bayern's defense. Dunno if Neuer is too good or Mbappe and Di Maria simply forgot how to perform well in the final And those mistakes actually fixed by Hansi on the 2nd half. PSG simply stop playinf football and unable to break through Bayern's midfield. Proven by by how Neymar must drop until they back four just to add more man to defense and bring the ball onward to eithe Mbappe or Di Maria, but that also nor enough. Even Veratti and Draxler also bring almost no impact whatsoever. Kehler was kinda asleep for 5 minutes in the early 2nd half, and that 5 minutes is enough for Bayern to score and capitalize the win.
PSG should have played 4-2-2-2: GK: Navas CB: Marquinhos CB: Silva RB: Kehrer LB: Bernat CDM: Gueye CDM: Verratti CAM(making forward runs): Di Maria CAM(playmaker coming deep): Neymar ST’s: Mbappe and Icardi.They should look to use the hexagonal forming a double-pivot on Thiago. As soon as the ball went wide to Davies or Kimmich, the touch line press begins. I chose Marquinhos over Kimpembe for defensive solidity coming up against Lewandowski and passing range. Verratti should act as the regista with Gueye being the mediano acting as a bodyguard, a bit like Gattuso and Ambrosini to Pirlo. Marquinhos and Silva should also act as liberos with one of them stepping forward and one covering. PSG should look attack in 3-4-1-2 with Kehrer dropping in the backline to form a back 3. Di Maria also drop in a pocket on the right to receive the ball and looking to play in Neymar and Mbappe. Similarly, Neymar should do this on the left and play Mbappe and Di Maria in behind. When this happens, Bernat should invert and let Verratti go in front. PSG should also give Bayern the possession, one thing they did right this game, as their press is deadly.
Where can I find the “Barca and the Messi problem” video you mentioned? Is it for patreon user only? I would love for you to publish that video as I was wondering that myself the other day. Having a winger that doesn’t track back, press high or runs in behind in modern day football is definitely a detriment to your team. I think messi should just convert back to a falso 9
Kehrer did a great job. During comans goal kehrer had the choice between lewandwski and coman because da silva was off position. its difficult to fight against 2 players.
@@randoom2405 what happens when PSG doesn't recognize their own talents? They pay horrendous amounts of cash for foreign trash players like Neymar and get lectured lmao
The Bayern vs psg game was really 12 v10. Kehrer was on our team😂😂 I promise if ribery was here, it would’ve been a wrap. Dude was a maestro and the ideal cam; and that guy was a LM😂
Barcelona fans were hating on neuer for past 3 years lol. This is why neuer starts over that overrated ter stagen... Neuer is the world's best in goal, he is more than a goalie, he is the sweeper
*What could each manager have done differently?* i will revert back to when madrid beat bayern under ancelloti.. madrid were compact even in lowblock and thats what psg lacked esp on the flanks were bayern look to isolate the fullbacks, thilo kehrer really suffered due to zero protection..had he sat in a 442 paredes manning a flank as an outside midfielder then dimaria manning the kimmich zone since kimmich tends to take up more of an inside midfield role in finishing/attacking third with this di maria will influence play better from that position... mbappe and neymer central to pick up space in the middle to alternate and pickup the ball in spaces, make runs inbehind the half spaces davies and kimih will leave...ultimately they missed verrati and rabiot, these two had composure on the ball, could carry ball into space or make line breaking passes, since they relied on transitions and counterattacking they really missed these two players..
In simple terms, Tunchel's tactical orientation of the attaching MIDFIELDER was poor. Furthermore, Neymar and Imbape were inefficient with respect of the 4 chances they missed.
Both teams played a very good match. Bayern was definitely better overall. Bayern's players are also has better mind concentration ( likely due to better physical stamina)
i agree. Psg has come a long way. They played well in this match as well as the whole competition. While Bayern is everybody's favorite, yet they has not shown much struggle on their games. They won easily and it would be very interesting to see the biggest team in Europe falls to the underdog team such as PSG
@@erenjaeger9263 Not just an oil team but one that openly supports terrorism and slavery. A blight on the planet. I have nothing against the PSG squad but I really hope that their team never wins anything at all in Europe under this ownership.
@@jessejames8774 I think the quality within the team is on a higher level than 2013. Müller, Neuer and Alaba improved over the years. Lewandowski is certainly better than Mandzukic. The 2013 squad was the team of the legendary four Schweinsteiger, Lahm, Robben and Ribery. They are unique footballers and among the best to ever play for bayern. But just Kimmich, Davies, Gnabry, Coman, Goretzka etc. Are the big names of this generation. And they have so many years left to play. And i think bayern has the best bench ever. Every player that comes in is a instant game changer.
@@TheMonsterHunterTV give it time I just thought 2013 was special after what happened in 2012..... but yea Robert is better than mario but he did score in the finals. But the bench you rdeofjately right is better.
Everyone is talking about the "bayern press" and opponents struggling to play from the back Why not just do a proper goal kick and have icardi divert it like giroud does and have mbappe and neymar run the channels ??? There is no need you have play from the back
Ariels are a problem, Bayern wins almost all of their ariel duel or the secondary one especially against Barca. But psg was somewhat better arially against bayern
@@adilmohammed6897 iacrdi is suited to play like that ... He did that at inter Psg hardly had a shot in the second half and they kept on doing the same thing
Bayern's high line is unbelievable. The back 4 is basically in the midfield. This allows their front 6 to press the opposition causing them to have less time on the ball to pick out perfect passes that can beat their high line. Which in turn chokes the opposition and forces them to make mistakes and concede. And once Bayern draw first blood, they go for the jugular.
i think that mbappe could have been the striker and neymar winger this would have been much better as it would have created more chances and psg would have gone attacking instead of defensive and the defensive line high so that they would put the strikers offside
What could each manager have done differently?
PSG had several chances at the end, but before that they couldn't complete simple passes. If Tuchel comforted his players they may have gotten the last second equalizer, as strange as it sounds, cause then they would've had more chances and one of them would've converted
Injure Neuer.
Jadon sancho analysis
PSG - Bring on Icardi
Bayern - Replace Goretzka with Pavard as Mbappe was exploiting the right due to the lack of pace of Kimmich and Boateng/Sule.
Tuchel could have...say manage another team and not PSG? 👀
Crazy how Bayern went from potential not winning the league this season to winning the treble
Coz they change kovac to flick

I really don't understand how people compare Neuer to the likes of Ederson, Becker, etc. The only people you can compare him to is the likes of Iker Casillas and Buffon.
They are Biased people who hardly watch football
Now we cannot compare but in the comming years maybe if Ederson will increase his reflexes as he is already as good as Neuer in term of feet
@@anzall8907 in terms of passing maybe, in terms of sweeping nope never
Iker Casillas was always overrated in my opinion. He is not in Buffon's class. Ven der Sar was quite competent with his feet at that time.
2002RM hmmm but buffon Never won UCL
Manuel Neuer single handedly won Bayern the FINAL... he is out of the WORLD... the GOAT KEEPER... with all respect to Buffon & Casillas
XG still on the side of Bayern, though.
Neuer & Thiago were the best IMO. What Thiago did in defence and mid-field, I didn't see in a long time. It was world class.
Michał Markowski muller always ran the final third without touching the ball
He Carried all team :D
True that neymar pass to mbappe would have been completed if any other keeper stood instead of Neuer..Dont know whether he is the goat but he definitely is the keeper of the decade

For me it was an amazing pass. Almost no one here notice. Im from Brazil, thats the reason. lol
@@aramislupan yeah man his links up play is very impressive..
Everyone talks about Muller exploiting space, but few mention his vision. He knows everything and it's been Radio Muller this whole tournament. Since he's doing the bossing around on the field, he knows where to go with the ball.

Kid first go to the era of 2008-2012, though they lost 2 Semis but they were the most feared team in the world, same for Madrid 2014-2018, see Arsenal vs Barca 2010 (2-2), you'll se the real domination in first half.
I am so happy for lewandowski, after so many years of hard work and persevering he finally gets his hand on the trophy. He should have won the Ballon d'or after the remarkable season he made.
Well done. I think there are several reasons why Bayern won it:
1) Neuer is back to prime Neuer and that includes the ball at his feet. Pressing Bayern is asking for trouble because you got 3 quality dribblers in Neuer, Alaba, and Davies. They feel comfortable absorbing pressure and moving between the lines. Which brings me to:
2) Thiago being a midfield boss. If you pressure Bayern, Neuer is going to find Thiago and he is so shifty that he can make room for himself to find the angles on the wings. He probably played the best ball of his career that led to the school.
3) PSG had no body to snuff out the attack in the midfield. All the money is up front. PSG did not strike fear into anyone going through the midfield. Somebody like Javi Martinez in 2013 or Kante at Leicester is what they need to break up any line breaking passes and start the track meet for Neymar and Mbappe
4) Bayern's high line gave PSG defenders no time to make good outlet passes. Davies is so fast that he covers so much ground. He can pressure and force passes into the midfield and then be back to his position in a few seconds.
"SIMPLE" Exactly how Bayern make the task look!
Many are just looking at PSG's fluffed chances and claiming that it was a close match; in reality, Flick completely outmaneuvered Tuchel. What a fantastic team this Bayern is, always maximizing their strengths and preventing even the best of teams from exploiting their few weaknesses. If Pavard can stay fit next year, then they will be even more fearsome. Tolisso should be allowed to play more. Thiago won't be missed because Kimmich is the better CDM. 1 more depth signing at CM and they will have a squad without weaknesses.
@@MrSoumyaBanerjee Agree. Bayern played the game in their hands, more patience and they won the cup.
@@MrSoumyaBanerjee
I wonder if Kimmich can be a deep-lying playmaker if that is the case...
@Formerly known as ZamDd He's excellent but not irreplaceable. Kimmich is one of the best CDMs in the world. Thiago will be a huge boost to Liverpool though.
@@TheSHIELDCap Yes, I think so, as a CDM, his defensive positioning and anticipation is excellent, but he is best at restarting attacks after winning back balls. His vision, creativity and technique make him one of the best in the world.
Bayern does some of the highest pressing in the history of high pressing. Their back line plays so high, people actually thought PSG is gonna punish them,, but they forgot that there is Manuel Neuer between the sticks😉💯
Big reason for this is because Neuer covers more ground than most keepers. His talent allows them to play very high. Along with Alaba and Davies being very quick to get back into position.
maybe if psg had a coach like guardiola that knows how to play in half spaces and also has the players with technique, finishing and pace to capitalize on the depth inbehind bayern lines, the story might have been different
@@natebosco8654 I think that's the key, defeating this Bayern would need players who have the ability to go out of the pressing and great delivery, players like prime Xavi or Iniesta that come to mind. I don't say that having great midfielders is the only way, but teams do need to find a way to get out of that press before talking about exploiting Bayern's high line.
@Habib Ridho Those are not the first players I would've thought of. Xavi and Iniesta were the incarnation of Tiki Taka and Bayerns Gegenpressing was designed to counter that style specificly.
Madrid is laughing seeing this😂
There is no team who could sustain this attacking pressure that Bayern is putting on his opponents in every game.
They are machines, not footballers 🔥🔥🔥
Honestly, the level of play was greater than the scoreline tells. However, the players that can score on either side can change the game with one touch. Boring game for some but tactically it was very tense. One pass could change the whole game
What you mean boring.. game like this is really joy to watch .
@@ErikGinting I think he got a point. He said "some". It is true the game itself wasn't boring at all, in perspective of fan that understand or love tactics. But some people can't enjoy the tactical side, they just want a match that entertain them (a lot of goals, flicks, acrobatic saves, etc.).
This is why they will love a game like when Bayern beat Barca 8-2, but bored when see how tense the tactical battle between PSG vs Bayern.

@@josec9827 I know that but Atletico Madrid had their best chance of winning it in 2016 and Madrid were far superior against juventus in 2017
Both managers got their tactics right. Bayern finished their best chance, while psg couldn't
I agree. PSG had several great looks, especially one for Mbappe right in front of the goal. Gotta give it up to Bayern. They were the best side in the CL.
in the end, I think Neuer made the difference.
if not for him , PSG could've won it 2-1 or even 3-1.
I don't agree. Tuchel did not get his tactics right. He played into Bayern's hands. Had they been more clinical in the first half it could have been three or four. In actual fact, their final ball in the first half was a bit poor. Lewandowski's chance was a good one. Paris' best chance came from a Bayern mistake. Yes they should have scored, but hardly a result of tactical success.
@@HenSt-gz7qj He was a beast. Legendary performance.
I think Neuer didn't only have an impact on the game with his saves, but also with his feet and sweeping abilities. When PSG pressed high, Bayern could easily break the press and get through the front line, which Leipzig wasn't able to. Also the experience and European culture of a huge club made it even easier for the Baverians to be the Europe's best.
Agreed, the scary thing about Neuer is that he can immediately transition into a build-up attack play. By passing back to Boateng or Kimmich or Thiago, Bayern can take advantage of the already high lines into an attacking formation.
I knew this was going to be a lot closer than many had anticipated.
PSG missed Verratti a lot. He is a player that could've helped them break the press and advance up the pitch through central areas with his close control and ball carrying abilities. Maybe Ander Herrera would've missed out on the start as Paredes offered the same high work rate, physicality yet better technique and a higher ability to beat the press.
PSG also suffered from not having a target man to go long towards. They did compete well for second balls though. I was also a bit surprised that Mbappe spent so much time against Kimmich. Yes he would have a clear speed advantage agaisnt the versatile German as a giant a comparative advantage at best over Davies... however early in the game Davies got booked. Tughel could've pitted Mbappe's pace and trickery agaisnt the now more cautious Davies who was key to creating overloads on his flank... Di Maria with his craft and guile would've been a decent matchup agaisnt Kimmich with Neymar able to drift to whichever side he saw fit to target at that moment.
PSG seemed a bit overwhelmed on thos occasion as the tie wore on. They scuffed quite a few chances you would normally expect them to finish. Neuer came up big no doubt.
The Bayern machine was fitter and just relentless and simpley forced PSG into mistakes like the way they created the penalty box overload that freed Coman for his back post header.
A very entertaining math even if it wasn't as goal laden as many assumed it would've been. Great analysis too.
Well said, PSG did miss Verratti a lot, he could've made it easier for PSG to have a link between the midfielders and the offensive trio, instead of their defense to bypass the line. They also needed somebody to make the full backs to play instead of just trying to protect them, which i think Hererra and Peredes did, but couldn't make them play as he would.
PSG was lucky that Flick did flop a bit by substituting Coman who was a threat to PSG, instead of introducing Coutinho in the number 10 role of Muller, and Perisic to cause havoc where Gnabary should have caused.
@@olebogengthekisho3594 Well why doesn't anyone say the obvious and admit that PSG would have been better without Neymar? It was clear that they needed to match Bayern's midfield. They should have played Mbappe down the middle to push that high line back, then got Veratti and Herrera in the middle and possibly Icardi in the 2nd half. Neymar ended up being a liability.
Flick after the game: "HOW DARE YOU GUYS EMBARESS ME LIKE THAT, ONLY 1 GOAL, IT SHOULD'VE BEEN 3 OR MORE FFS"
th-cam.com/video/5OgGuGb2jSY/w-d-xo.html bayern - psg troll meme
Both team played great, but in the bayern were the better team and deserved to win, bayern had 62 percent ball possession had more shots and a 3 big chances created with 2 big chanses missed compared to psg which had 2 big chanses created with to big chanses missed. So basically if both teams finished their big chanses the match would've ended 3-2 for bayern.
Thiago was the orchestrator in that game, his currently one of the best in that position 👏🤛
What a club Bayern are. Joined Barca on being the two clubs with 2 trebles. As a cule I was offended by the remarks Uli Hoeness and Lothar Matthaus said, but they were not wrong. Bayern were a machine in 2020. They are the standard of this decade

Bayern was really good with their pressing yesterday. In spite of all the muck being thrown at their defence, they conceded only 1 goal in open play against Barcelona, PSG and Lyon combined. Is that not impressive? The fact is that they have so many ways of dominating the midfield and allowing their fullbacks to dominate the attack and allow for full verticality. Flick has easily been the best manager this year. What a change after Kovac's embarrassments.
Actually I think that PSG played a great game considering they were meeting THE team of the moment. Tactically they did OK. Loosing 1-0 to the Bayern 2020 squad is noting to be shameful about. They could have won this game. They had their chances.

Bayern can do this pushing tactic thanks to Neuer, having a strong sweeper keeper than they can rely on really helps their spirit when bayern was pushing their enemies. Neuer also show masterclass in this game.

@@claudemakelele2856 Interesting theory, and the best we have!
@@PowerControl It isn't a theory tbh, it's the truth. Bayern can easily concede 2 goals but score 6 goals against any side. This final was an exception though. It was more tactical than I thought it would be.
I like how it went from how flick conquered Garcia to flick conquered Europe.
I'm impressed with the mistakes Paredes made in the played that led to Coman's goal. First he was in the wrong position before Kimich received, allowing Thiago to make that pass by covering the same space Marquinhos was already covering, then he doesn't press Kimich after Muller's touch even tough two of his teammates were covering the same area. The guy looked like a 10yo just following the ball.
Can't wait for next season. Hopefully the semis not one sided like this season
I want to see the fans back too
Witnessed history, never even lost a damn game. For ppl who will see this years from now, Lewandowski deserved his Ballon D'or but sadly he got robbed :'( it would've been awesome to win the treble and get his very well deserved Ballon D'or at the same time. I doubt that he'll have a UCL season like this again Ffs the man is 32 years old and passed prime Messi's # of goals in a UCL and could've easily passed Ronaldos # with two fewer games this UCL season... he could've become the top goalscorer in UCL history and didn't get his Ballon D'or. Anyways besides what could've been I'm glad he and the team brought the treble a second time to Bayern and ill always be a proud Bayern fan for that
6:00, At some stances, rather than 5 midfielders, there were 5 Defenders, 5-4-1, It happened usually to stop Davies!!
Yes...Marquinhos peeche aaya naa...
i really don't think those were intentional things. it's more like one guy has to cover a space that got free'd here and other a space there and then you end in such formation but, right after that, the formation comes to the normal 433 again (more of something like a 4 1 2 0 2 1 - when draxler entered, 4 1 1 1 2 1).
the truth is that psg got completely lost after the goal, but it was already starting to happen before it - the offensive positional changes in the beginning of the second half may be what triggered it.
Gustavo Albericchi Du Rocher quite agreed mate!! But, as u see i am a barca fan ! So the way they use Jordi Alba to get upfield, most teams in Laliga this year stopped Barca (the 1-1 draw, and 2-1 loss) by bringing back their midfielder in defence to have 5 men at the back whenever Jordi Alba progressed, to stop his Overlap!! Same goes for Davies !!
This probably has happened because using two of what we call "second wheels" in Brazil ("steering wheels", the defensive midfielders that are the most used to attack, box to box, in contrast to the defensive midfielder that goes less into attack) is getting really common! Psg for an example uses 2 box to box guys and marquinhos as a first wheel. Liverpool does the same - 3 wheels and 3 attackers.
Against barca's 4 3 3 formation, its really common that both second wheels are asked to cover the space that will be opened if an attacking winger presses our lateral defensive midfielders, so they'll cover that side if jordi attacks there and as a result, whenever he attacks, there will be 5 men on the defense, but if he doesnt attack, he will not go there - and thats why i mean we cant really say their formation was this.
Analyzing barca's defense, for an example, in a lot of times they would use an attacking winger to cover the same space instead of a wheel, but it wouldnt mean that this guy would temporarily become a defender - at least for me. He would just hold the lateral defense attacks.
I think its more like a POV, because yeah, we can say that they were at that formation in that small "cut" :) its just I'm not used to see it like this.
For me its more like a "who will cover that space if it becomes free for them?" and "who will use that space if it becomes free for us?".
I dont have the technical knowledge to name the positions in english but i guess its understandable hahahah
Why Bayern players never get tired? 😌
cause that’s the bayern way 😌😌😌
Bayern were solid defensively and Thanks to Nuere especially. PSG on the other hand pressed high with DMN but Bayern dominated the mids.. Great win for Bayern. And good analysis FMS
Well deserved win and treble from Bayern. Neuer, Thiago, Coman, and Kimmich in particular were fantastic. Mbappe and Neymar were underwhelming and wasteful to say the least. Shoutout to Thiago Silva put in a shift in his last game for PSG lmao. Kehrer was getting exposed not gonna lie. Lets put some respect on Flick's name, turned this whole Bayern team around when he took over.
great tactical breakdown . good work. It was an entertaining game last night . i thought PSG were the better side 1st half and create some good chances. Bayern weathered the storm and really came into the game second half.
The Problem was Bayern Played Not that will in Both halftimes.... they did so Many Mistakes in their Passing. But against the Ball they were quite ok. But it was a Final Game so i can Unterstand the pressure what they had felt espacially the younger guys
You've got a great tactical & analytical brain mate!
I suggest you try applying for some collab coaching job. You'll get a decent club with this CV of youtube vids!
great analysis! though youve lacked to observe what psg's defense done right. defensively, psg gave very few spaces and despite the fact they did have to work the long passes a lot, bayern defensive lines were not on par with psg's attacking side. because of such good work defensively, bayern came clear (i mean, with time to think, aim and act) once at Coman's goal and second with Coman again some minutes later (almost the same way) both only on second half, and while Neymar had a very difficult shot and almost scored - like Lewa's bar shot, both on the first half - both Di Maria and Mbappé had very clean shots - again, with time to think, aim and execute on the first half.
on first half, bayern playing volume was bigger, but psg's chances were clearer.
hypothetically, if both teams had a cold hearted skilled striker on the clean situations, he would have scored twice for psg for sure, and no goal for bayern.
both teams also had other dangerous moments but not that clear (without much space to think, aim and execute): those are defensive merits and not attacking demerits.
so tactically speaking, psg on first half had some 20% less of ball posession and lost a lot of balls trying to attack but defensively, completely neutralized the machine that is bayern.
i think very few people did notice this.
2nd half began with di maria and mbappé exchanging sides, which for me was clear to be the best choice from the start, not because of Davies's speed, but because Davies advances more, but it was very soon until they changed it again.
i think what is likely to is that Di Maria is used to play bringing the ball towards the center, and his right foot is... we saw it, not trustworthy.
what i mean is that it probably wasn't Tuchel's option - he would have went for Mbappé on Davies back too, but he hadn't had/didn't trust that he had/the player didn't trusted to be able to do what was necessary.
i think that, at this moment, psg started to be a little less organized and brang their defensive lines onto their pitch not because of a tactical choice, but because they got a little lost and, despite not having suffered a lot of danger, until the last 10, 15 minutes where they were kind of more desperate, they done nothing offensively, too.
and about this end, it showed that even this Bayern do get tense sometimes - like it was clear on lyon's first half too (not for Gnabry, though).
for me tuchel's main mistake was neymar's position. he is in his peak phisically! if he is to fix the advancings of bayern defensive lines, should have worked as a fake 9 without the ball to fix them and as a 10 with it to populate the midfield and bring the defenders even closer to it.
for me, neymar had to feel more responsible and i am not really sure that this is all on his lack of good, common sense. tuchel's mistake, for sure.
very entertaining game tactically!
As a PSG fan, I would have liked to see Mbappe & Di Maria play to the wide spaces. Traditionally, these players look to cut in and create or shoot. However, this game showed that Bayern was committed to shutting down the interior space by condensing their defensive block. This tactic might have allowed PSG to exploit the deep wide spaces ti interplay and recycle the ball into more central spaces, where they could play more directly. Opportunities lost, but lessons learned. Allez PSG!
This excellent analysis just shows how much better Bayern were, inspite of a number of good chances for PSG. Imo Tuchel is a very poor manager, atleast from what I have seen in this tournament, he just relies on the individual brilliance of Neymar, Mbappe, ADM and their defence in order to get past mediocre opposition. From the lineup itself it was evident that they would cede the initiative to Bayern even though PSG are intrinsically not a counter attacking side. They should have tried to drop Herrera or Paredes into the tip of their defence in order to allow for better central progression, instead they played out foolishly to their useless fullbacks, Bernat and Kehrer. What a fantastic manager Flick is, really hope to continue to see him thrive on the biggest stages. His decision to use Coman's pace and the Muller-Goretzka pivot in order to exploit the lack of positioning discipline of PSG's midfield was inspired. He has easily been the best manager in the world since his appointment in November.
Idk how you can say Tuchel is a poor manager. Im not saying he's great but he's mostly unproven. We need to see him manage a team like Lyon before we make judgements. It's too easy in Ligue Un for PSG and in the Champions League, other than that 2-1 win iver Atalanta, played pretty well
@@anonymousperson3023 Yeah but they had a relatively easy run in the knockout stages. Tuchel just relied on his gifted frontline without specifying the right gameplan for them. That's a big sign of poor tactical management.
Aged well
To me , the 2 Keys were thé exceptionnel Neuer and the poor Mpabbe, not only missing is occasion but as well not defending and pressing enough like Neymar and DM.
As always great analyses. In the end, experience wins this kind of games. Bayern exactly knew how PSG would play. And with their pressing play, they did not get much in trouble, al though PSG had some opportunities.
Its funny how football adapts. Teams nowadays need to play almost the same way as a lot of winning teams. They all do press high and intens. You saw it with Barca, they literally dominated for so long, then Bayern, then City in the Premier League then Liverpool and now Bayern again.
When it comes to mentality and never give up attitude, Neymar and Mbappe are nowhere near the level of Messi and Ronaldo.
Yesterday I saw a Neymar who worked more defensively than messi ans cr7 ever did. Was really surprised to see it. Still only Messi and cr7 will use all their chances
I mean it depends the situation. In a game like this you are correct. In a game where they are losing 4-1 or 3-0 then Messi drops his head big time (I mean look at the 8-2 Bayern match, he was captain and gave up at half time)
I prefer Messi to Ronaldo, but Ronaldo has that never give up attitude. I’ve seen Messi give up
@@zakattack7896 yeah
@@bananarama3624 This Barca or Juventus team is not a team with strong defence but PSG has it. Since the departure of many La Masias Messi has anticipted the decline of Barca. He is a GAME CHANGER, Talisman like CR7. Last night PSG defended very well otherwise Bayern would have scored plenty of goals.
Sometimes if you have lead in first leg then you have to defend nicely, Roma or Liverpool collapse are examples of Failure of the defence , not the offensive side. How can you expect a team to score all the time. Barca did it in first leg but failed to defend it. Against Liverpool in the first leg Messi did score 2 goals. He has been carrying Barca as Ronaldo is carrying Juventus.
Star players like Neymar and Mbappe are expected to score or create chances if they have a good defence. But they failed to do so.

Are they the best team in club history?
Or is a tream better than them?
Best team of club history of all times yes. Like Bobby Fischer Bayern is GOAT European club.
Can you make a video showing the differences between Kovac tactics at Bayern and Flicks?
Can you do team analysis of national teams as international football is about to return? Great videos btw👍
Neuer was the biggest difference in this match. Few Keepers can basically play as sweeper like he does. This permits Flick to keep his high line tactic. Not counting the that he saved at least 2 goals. I believe that Neuer will be the model for the next generation keepers. A keeper that is obviously a great goal as well as and incredible ball handler.
Oliver Kahn is the best
I think it's an era of BAYERN MUNICH'S European dominance...
Psg manager could have accepted more free role of possesion of midfielders and trying to push in out in the end when psg was under. Other then that Neuer did save bayern in that match, but I do not understand why specially mbappe continued shooting low when neuer took all does. I assume not pressure in big match and not totally fit after injury. Bayern won but psg had the most big chances, so yeah when they cannot score on does ofc Bayern wins. Bayern also pressed very well high, specially trying to lock down where psg has lost the ball low b4 and it was smart by the them. And alot more. This was a great final to watch tho!! :)
Bayern pressing system is on ahonther level
What could each Manager have done differently? Tuchel: Change Di Maria to the left as he doesn't have a right foot. Put Neymar on the right, because he might as well have been crap out there. Put Mbappe in the middle and play long from the back to force Bayern out of that high line, in order to create some space for the midfield.
Bayern: better final ball in the first half. Alfonso should have overlapped much more and came inside far too often instead. Be more clinical.
An absolut disorganized PSG-Back in the box as Coman did the 1:0. All 7(!) PSG-Players are looking and moving towards the ball. PSG has on the right AND on the left wing of the box a 1:2-Situation (PSG Player against 2 Bayern Players). 4 PSG-Players in the middle are concentrated at the ball, no one looks back or to the side. No one organizes the behavior in the box. As Kimmich passes, there are 6 PSG and 5 Bayern players in the box. With a better organisation, the goal could be (easyl) avoided. Maybe it is also a question of fitness. Bayern had a better plan an an better organisation on the field, over the hole match time. So they win.
I think there's too much focus on tactics here when some really simple factors came into play. Bayern were more disciplined in their approach and had more energy in the start of the game. Both sides started with a similar approach of passing from the back but PSG were intimidated by Bayern's pressing and lost their willingness to continue passing out. Neymar become more disjointed in his positioning as the game went on so there was no reliable outlet other than MBappe.
Some of PSG's passing was poor and there was still no plan for Thiago. So I think a lot of the performance difference came down to players not executing their individual assignments rather than any great tactical difference to begin with.
Had Mbappe scored from that Bayern mistake in the first half, it would have been a different game completely. In the end, Bayern's tactics were superior and they were simply relentless. They should have won much easier - 1 nil flattered PSG - but Alfonso had a bad game for once and Kimpembe was magnificent,
Bayern double pivot is very good. They must find replacement for Thiago with the same quality (which is very limited at the moment)..
@Football Made Simple can you make a tactical analysis of nathan ake, former bournemouth and current man city defender
Bayern defense strong in stopping PSG attack up the middle, great defensive work from Thiago, Goretzka, Alaba and Sule.

just saying 😁
Bayern played so risky. I mean they were so high positioned on the pitch. Any dispossession in midfield had meant endless space for Mbappe, Neymar or Di Maria to run into in the direction of the goal. You need big balls as a manager to let your team play like that vs. PSG. They also were lucky that Mbappe did not score shortly before half time. As you said a fit Mbappe had buried that shot in the net. Also Davies had some real defensive weaknesses in 1st half. But overall it was a very impressive performance and they deservedly won.
You forgot how Kimmich played deep asking for the ball from one side to another of the field while gnabry run with Lewandowski inside the goalkeeper area for a corner attack
can you make a video on how man city can line up next season and how Messi influences Guardiolas tactic ?
can u make a video on this treble winning team's overall tactics?
PSG should have scored at least once in the 1st half after lot of giveaway from Bayern's defense. Dunno if Neuer is too good or Mbappe and Di Maria simply forgot how to perform well in the final
And those mistakes actually fixed by Hansi on the 2nd half. PSG simply stop playinf football and unable to break through Bayern's midfield. Proven by by how Neymar must drop until they back four just to add more man to defense and bring the ball onward to eithe Mbappe or Di Maria, but that also nor enough.
Even Veratti and Draxler also bring almost no impact whatsoever. Kehler was kinda asleep for 5 minutes in the early 2nd half, and that 5 minutes is enough for Bayern to score and capitalize the win.
What's the name of the App you use for show the tactics?
Amazing series
PSG should have played 4-2-2-2: GK: Navas CB: Marquinhos CB: Silva RB: Kehrer LB: Bernat CDM: Gueye CDM: Verratti CAM(making forward runs): Di Maria CAM(playmaker coming deep): Neymar ST’s: Mbappe and Icardi.They should look to use the hexagonal forming a double-pivot on Thiago. As soon as the ball went wide to Davies or Kimmich, the touch line press begins. I chose Marquinhos over Kimpembe for defensive solidity coming up against Lewandowski and passing range. Verratti should act as the regista with Gueye being the mediano acting as a bodyguard, a bit like Gattuso and Ambrosini to Pirlo. Marquinhos and Silva should also act as liberos with one of them stepping forward and one covering. PSG should look attack in 3-4-1-2 with Kehrer dropping in the backline to form a back 3. Di Maria also drop in a pocket on the right to receive the ball and looking to play in Neymar and Mbappe. Similarly, Neymar should do this on the left and play Mbappe and Di Maria in behind. When this happens, Bernat should invert and let Verratti go in front. PSG should also give Bayern the possession, one thing they did right this game, as their press is deadly.
Where can I find the “Barca and the Messi problem” video you mentioned? Is it for patreon user only? I would love for you to publish that video as I was wondering that myself the other day. Having a winger that doesn’t track back, press high or runs in behind in modern day football is definitely a detriment to your team. I think messi should just convert back to a falso 9
Hansi made a potential contenders to undisputed champions of Europe
Neuer wins Bayern UCL and Kehrer helps German club.
Kehrer did a great job. During comans goal kehrer had the choice between lewandwski and coman because da silva was off position. its difficult to fight against 2 players.
Indeed
Kehrer and Tuchel are useless. PSG will never win anything relevant with them
Kehrer played well, considering he had to play against one of the fastest players in the world, that also happens to be one of the best dribblers.
@@randoom2405 what happens when PSG doesn't recognize their own talents? They pay horrendous amounts of cash for foreign trash players like Neymar and get lectured lmao
The Bayern vs psg game was really 12 v10. Kehrer was on our team😂😂 I promise if ribery was here, it would’ve been a wrap. Dude was a maestro and the ideal cam; and that guy was a LM😂
Barcelona fans were hating on neuer for past 3 years lol. This is why neuer starts over that overrated ter stagen... Neuer is the world's best in goal, he is more than a goalie, he is the sweeper
Psg game was also good...its nt one sided as against barca
*What could each manager have done differently?* i will revert back to when madrid beat bayern under ancelloti.. madrid were compact even in lowblock and thats what psg lacked esp on the flanks were bayern look to isolate the fullbacks, thilo kehrer really suffered due to zero protection..had he sat in a 442 paredes manning a flank as an outside midfielder then dimaria manning the kimmich zone since kimmich tends to take up more of an inside midfield role in finishing/attacking third with this di maria will influence play better from that position... mbappe and neymer central to pick up space in the middle to alternate and pickup the ball in spaces, make runs inbehind the half spaces davies and kimih will leave...ultimately they missed verrati and rabiot, these two had composure on the ball, could carry ball into space or make line breaking passes, since they relied on transitions and counterattacking they really missed these two players..
Was waiting for it❤️
In simple terms, Tunchel's tactical orientation of the attaching MIDFIELDER was poor. Furthermore, Neymar and Imbape were inefficient with respect of the 4 chances they missed.
Both teams played a very good match. Bayern was definitely better overall. Bayern's players are also has better mind concentration ( likely due to better physical stamina)
magnifico análisis bro, LIKE LIKE LIKE
aldo bayern are a press monster and that can unsettle any teams build up rythm
Fun Fact: Kingsley Coman scored the first UCL goal and last :D
both headers
wish PSG woulda win, but lowkey knew Bayern woulda won
How can u support a oil team ?
@@erenjaeger9263 just cause they were underdogs to win in this match
i agree. Psg has come a long way. They played well in this match as well as the whole competition. While Bayern is everybody's favorite, yet they has not shown much struggle on their games. They won easily and it would be very interesting to see the biggest team in Europe falls to the underdog team such as PSG
You lowkey probably dont understand fooball if you assume a team can win before the ball is even kicked. Period.
@@erenjaeger9263 Not just an oil team but one that openly supports terrorism and slavery. A blight on the planet. I have nothing against the PSG squad but I really hope that their team never wins anything at all in Europe under this ownership.
Good analogy of the game
Do the pros/cons of having Messi at Manchester City and how Pep might use him
Something else to note: the favorites usually win major finals. France 4-2 Croatia, Liverpool 2-0 Spurs, I could go on and on
The Reason why bayern Can afford to press so high is Sweeper keeper Neuer..its like they have 12 outfield players..Proud to be a bayern Fan
Love this channel
Love this video!
Thiago Alcântara was instrumental in this game 👏
Best team in UCL history
More than 2013 Bayern?
@@jessejames8774 I think the quality within the team is on a higher level than 2013.
Müller, Neuer and Alaba improved over the years.
Lewandowski is certainly better than Mandzukic.
The 2013 squad was the team of the legendary four Schweinsteiger, Lahm, Robben and Ribery. They are unique footballers and among the best to ever play for bayern.
But just Kimmich, Davies, Gnabry, Coman, Goretzka etc. Are the big names of this generation. And they have so many years left to play.
And i think bayern has the best bench ever. Every player that comes in is a instant game changer.
@@TheMonsterHunterTV give it time I just thought 2013 was special after what happened in 2012..... but yea Robert is better than mario but he did score in the finals. But the bench you rdeofjately right is better.
Everyone is talking about the "bayern press" and opponents struggling to play from the back
Why not just do a proper goal kick and have icardi divert it like giroud does and have mbappe and neymar run the channels ???
There is no need you have play from the back
Ariels are a problem, Bayern wins almost all of their ariel duel or the secondary one especially against Barca. But psg was somewhat better arially against bayern
@@adilmohammed6897 iacrdi is suited to play like that ...
He did that at inter
Psg hardly had a shot in the second half and they kept on doing the same thing
Its all about Neuer alaba and the full-backs thats why they press so high alaba davies and pavard are extremely fast while Neuer is playing sweep
Another fast upload. Thank you, FMS!
Ah c'est top ça il faudrait une chaîne comme ça en français 🙂
Lets not forget Manuel NEUER as crucial part of tactic
Tactics-wise PSG had the edge, but Bayern couldn't do much to mitigate that. However mentally and physically Bayern won the final.
Can u make like a What will happen if Barcelona 2010/2011 vs Liverpool 2018/19 or Bayern Munich 2019/2020 that will be interesting
Yea .. this prime time is really great for them all ..
i am shocked that tuchel didnt use icardi and he subbed di maria, who had some pretty good scenes against bayerns left side in the second half
Bayern's high line is unbelievable. The back 4 is basically in the midfield. This allows their front 6 to press the opposition causing them to have less time on the ball to pick out perfect passes that can beat their high line. Which in turn chokes the opposition and forces them to make mistakes and concede. And once Bayern draw first blood, they go for the jugular.
I never seen a more accurate comment 😂
i think that mbappe could have been the striker and neymar winger this would have been much better as it would have created more chances and psg would have gone attacking instead of defensive and the defensive line high so that they would put the strikers offside
you misspelled did in the description
Love the videos
keep it up!! Great!!
