Mario Gomez looked into the dark evening sky. His eyes were blank, his voice soft and fragile, as he was looking for an explanation of what had just played there in the Munich Arena. One reason why the FC Bayern Munich, it has not yet managed to collect the quarter-finals of the Champions League. "I do not know, do not know," stammered the striker after the 2:3 (2:1) against Inter Milan.
Unlike Manchester United, that is qualified by a 2-1 (1-0) to Olympique Marseille for the round of eight best teams, the Munich now have to watch, if will be drawn on Friday in Nyon, the quarter-and semi-finals. Schalke 04 will then also be represented as the last club from the Bundesliga.
The mood in Munich after the Champions League night was a mixture of disappointment and helplessness. On Saturday they had done the Hamburger SV still 6-0. As real Gratmesser but that meeting has not been rated. Was too low, the resistance of the hamburger. Inter, it was said, was a completely different caliber.
The defending champion, European champion named coach Louis van Gaal did the Italians. In the final in Madrid, the Italians had been defeated by effectively cool the Munich 2-0. And when van Gaal was talking about that final, was not to hear how much he had taken that defeat almost personally.
Because he think his system of attack as a football, or at least classify them as watchable as that of Inter, which he describes with so much destructive. And so that advancement would have been his own personal satisfaction. Of course, was the Dutchman's disappointment not to be overlooked: "We already have four or five times away a victory.
Even today we have again made, although the opponent had little chance. We got the goals too easy. "The first moment of tension on Tuesday was offered before the game when Van Gaal named its lineup. With the defensive line Philipp Lahm, Daniel van Buyten, Breno and Danijel Pranjic he offered the 18 Back four this season in his starting lineup.
Those ongoing personnel changes may not necessarily contribute to an increased sense of security, but they are, a recently admitted van Gaal, due to the unsatisfactory defensive behavior. A defensive behavior, which the Bavarians but should again be fatal. But it was not van Gaal was himself who had in recent weeks and months, always vehemently resisted reinforcements for the defense? In the fourth minute in any case, the projection from the first leg was used up, even as the Munich back four moved up very far.
Inter's Goran Pandev put through to his strike partner Samuel Eto'o. The Munich rightly claimed offside. Referee Pedro Proenca (Portugal) continue to play but did. And such a possibility can not take someone like Eto'o. Already it was 1-0 for Inter. It took several minutes for biting the Bavarians in the game, but they did it.
In the 21 Minute, they also received such generous support to victory in the first leg of Inter goalkeeper Julio Cesar: A harmless shot from Arjen Robben popped out of his arms, your legs by Mario Gomez, who einspitzelte to compensate. With his eighth Champions League matches in this season's Gomez in the scorer par with Eto'o and Barcelona's Lionel Messi.
As a result, the Munich games were decisive, even if it 2-1 in the 31 st Minutes also sprang a happy coincidence. This time, Robben was the starting point, his passport should serve Gomez. Inter midfielder Thiago Motta from faking it so that Thomas Müller free before Julio Cesar at the end came.
To break the Munich could lead even higher, even need. But in the 34th Julio Cesar saved minutes at a solo of Ribery, a few minutes later also plenty of bad luck was in play when the ball along the goal line coo, but from the post again jumped into the field. Shortly afterwards it was Robben, who only hit the side netting.
"We are to blame. Even at half-time we must lead 4-1. Then eliminate even against a team that is not known to play beautiful football, this should not happen ", trying to seal in a statement. The second half began as the first ended, with Munich's chances. This time it was Gomez, who failed to Julio Cesar.
After all the options granted it happened as it had to: In the 63rd Minute it was Wesley Sneijder, with a dry low shot at 2-2 the game was exciting. "We then played too passive, would manage only, that is not against a team like Inter. Everyone has shifted the responsibility, "Gomez was still an explanation for the off:" Our game is designed for the ball, but if you only play back to the goalkeeper ...
"Pandev punished the Bavarians in the 88th Minutes consistently. "We are not having played well tactically, the counter is not playing well. We were not compact enough. In the first half, we have done. Inconceivable that we withdraw against Inter Milan even more, "said Bastian Schweinsteiger." Inter was broken in my eyes, could not walk longer.
We must take our own conscience. Unfortunately, like in this season. "
