Bayern Munich - Like an unfinished construction site!

(Baonghean.vn) - The home team at Allianz Arena had to accept a humiliating defeat with a score of 0 - 2 against Napoli in the 3rd place match of Audi Cup 2017.

Witnessing the recent performances of coach Ancelotti and his team, experts and Bayern Munich fans cannot help but feel disappointed and uneasy. In the history of the Audi Cup, the "Bavarian Tigers" have never had such a bad record. They lost both matches against Liverpool (0-3) and Napoli (0-2), in the manner of a mid-level team.

If calculated broadly, in the last 5 matches, the home team at Allianz Arena has only won once, the rest are 4 "convincing" losses. In China, Bayern Munich was crushed by AC Milan 4-0. In Singapore, after a narrow 3-2 victory over Chelsea, Ancelotti and his team immediately accepted defeat by the team from Italy - Inter Milan (0-2).

Scoring 3 goals and conceding 13 times shows that both the defense and the attack have clearly revealed difficult problems. Except for the match with Napoli, coach Ancelotti only fielded reserve players, but in the remaining 4 matches, many key players were present in the squad, spread across all lines. Alaba, Mast Hummels, Tolisso, Thiago, Vidal, Ribery, James Rodriguez, Muller, Lewandowski... are all great players.

Watching Bayern Munich play, it feels like the “remnants” of Pep Guardiola’s reign still exist at the Allianz Arena. Ribery and his teammates still dominate the game, controlling the ball more with small passes.

According to statistics, in 4/5 matches (except the match against Napoli), Bayern players always outperformed their opponents in terms of ball possession time and number of shots. However, goals are quite a luxury for the team led by coach Ancelotti.

Just take the match against Liverpool as an example, enough to realize the efficiency of Bayern Munich. At the Allianz Arena, the "Bavarian gray tiger" controlled the ball up to 65%, launched a total of 17 shots compared to 35% and 13 shots of Liverpool.

The final result? Bayern Munich were defeated 0-3, after sharp strikes from Mane, Salah and Sturridge of the visitors. Obviously, that is not what is usually seen in the team under Ancelotti.

If he does not quickly fix the existing shortcomings at Bayern Munich, coach Ancelotti will follow in the footsteps of his predecessor Pep Guardiola in both his achievements and his ability to stay in office. Therefore, this season will be decisive for the Italian strategist's fate at Allianz Arena. Coach Ancelotti is now no different from an architect standing in the middle of an unfinished construction site./.
