Bayern lost 1-3 to Arsenal in this round of Champions League focus match away from home. Captain Neuer was interviewed after the game and was asked about the third goal he conceded.
In the 76th minute, Arsenal intercepted the ball in the backcourt and counterattacked. Eze's exquisite long pass penetrated the defense. Martinelli got the ball and passed Neuer, who was attacking to intercept, and hit the empty goal into the net.
He explained: "At that moment of the game we had to take more risks. The opponent's pass was good and the distance was not too long. I saw Martinelli facing off against Kimmich. He was faster than Kimmich, so it would have been a one-on-one, which was a great opportunity for Arsenal. I tried to predict, but he (Martinelli) stopped the ball for a while, which was very crucial - in the end I failed to occupy the right position."
