The last four goals Bayern have conceded have come from set-piece situations, which their Premier League counterparts will look to exploit on Wednesday night. Bayern boss Kompany, though, insists he is “calm” having been asked whether he is worried about facing set-piece specialists Arsenal in the Champions League.
“I’m calm. We made mistakes in these phases as a team. We shouldn’t hide, we should show personality and character to defend them,” Kompany said.
“We’re also a good team in attacking set pieces, we scored from a corner today. We just have to stay calm and work to get out of this phase and show that we’re also good in this department. I have confidence that we’ll solve it”
Ultimately, Bayern went on to claim a huge 6-2 victory over Freiburg on Saturday, as goals from Michael Olise – twice – Lennart Karl, Harry Kane, Nicolas Jackson and Dayot Upamecano saw FC Hollywood return to winning ways having been held to a 2-2 draw with Union Berlin prior to the international break.
