Bayern were simply too much for us. They outplayed us in every way, Bílek said

As expected, Viktoria Plzeň fell to Bayern Munich 0:5. The match was basically over in the first half, when the home team easily got through the defence of the Pilsen backs. What did coach Michal Bílek say at the press conference?

The third match in the Champions League group stage did not go well either. Viktoria fell to Bayern Munich 0:5, with Leroy Sané, Serge Gnabry, Sadio Mané and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting scoring twice for the German side.

It was done almost immediately, the Bavarian team penetrated the defence like a knife through butter, creating more and more chances without difficulty and the score could have been even worse if it wasn’t for goalkeeper Marian Tvrdona.

“We knew that we were facing an opponent that had beaten Barcelona and was a huge favourite. Their players have speed, they control the ball perfectly, they put great balls behind the defence..

We prepared for it, but Bayern were just too much for us. Theyoutplayed us in every way,” said coach Michal Bílek at the press conference. Plzen still has 0 points.

But now they have to refocus on the league, where they will challenge Mlada Boleslav on Saturday. A second loss in a row would definitely not be desirable.

“It’s not easy to play in the league, where we do decently, and then switch to the Champions League, where we get rations. Mentally, we have to prepare the players for the fact that we are playing for the European Cup next year,” Bílek added.
