Due to the yellow card Vincent Kompany received for dissent in Bayern Munich\u2019s second leg Champions League quarterfinals win over Real Madrid at the Allianz Arena, he will not be allowed on the touchlines for leg one of the semifinals vs. Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes in Paris. Bayern has already confirmed that one of Kompany\u2019s assistants, Aaron Danks, will lead the touchline efforts for the occasion while the Belgian will be able to return for the return leg at the Allianz Arena in Munich.<\/p>\n
There is added frustration behind the suspension given how vexing Kompany\u2019s yellow was during the second leg win over Real Madrid. He was justifiably irate at the fact that nothing had been given for Antonio R\u00fcdiger\u2019s blatant foul on Josip Stani\u0161i\u0107 in the buildup to Kylian Mbapp\u00e9\u2018s goal that ultimately wound up injuring the Croatian. What\u2019s done is done, though, and Kompany will have to respect the UEFA rules in place his trust in his assistant\u2019s and the rest of his coaching staff for managing the squad during the match.<\/p>\n
As far as the final details of the suspension and touchline ban are concerned, Bild (via @iMiaSanMia<\/a>) have released an overview of just what, exactly, Kompany is and isn\u2019t allowed to do on matchday. The Belgian manager is allowed to travel with the rest of the team from the hotel to the Parc des Princes, which is usually done so the team can arrive roughly 90 minutes ahead of kickoff. However, once the bus is parked at the stadium, Kompany has to separate from the team and he is not allowed to go into the dressing room.<\/p>\n As far as regular media duties are concerned, Kompany can give interviews to the press so long as there is no contact with any of the team during them, especially if they occur ahead of kickoff. It\u2019s to be very much expected that he will be asked questions by multiple outlets shortly after he\u2019s arrived at the stadium.<\/p>\n During the match, he will be seated in a private box along with a UEFA official to monitor the parameters of the ban during the match. Unlike rules and regulations from the governing bodies of some of Europe\u2019s domestic leagues, the use of mobile phones is not allowed during the match for the ban to eliminate the possibility of Kompany communicating with his personnel down on the touchlines.<\/p>\n For what it\u2019s worth, Bayern have had plenty of time to prepare for the occasion without having Kompany on the sidelines and they\u2019ll have full confidence in their ability to still get the job done with the rest of his coaching staff there. Nonetheless, it hasn\u2019t made the ban any less annoying for Kompany, especially since it all resulted from some very poor officiating during a match against Real Madrid \u2014 a matchup that seems to routinely involve ludicrous refereeing decisions for more teams than just Bayern.<\/p>\n If you are looking for more Bayern Munich and German national team coverage, check out the latest episodes of Bavarian Podcast Works, which you can get on Acast<\/a>, Spotify<\/a>, Apple<\/a>, or any leading podcast distributor\u2026 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Due to the yellow card Vincent Kompany received for dissent in Bayern Munich\u2019s second leg Champions League quarterfinals…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":633291,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[67106,18635,49,48,82],"class_list":["post-633290","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-bayern-munich-coaches","tag-bayern-munich-champions-league","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/633290","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=633290"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/633290\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/633291"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=633290"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=633290"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=633290"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
