Bayern Munich star Dayot Upamecano weary of PSG’s ruthless attack ahead of blockbuster Champions League clash
PSG have some impressive statistics behind their attacking numbers, will Upa be able to cope?
Bayern Munich is set to face Paris Saint Germain in its next Champions League outing. Not only is this a fixture between two top teams, but it’s one that has built up historical significance ever since Bayern edged out PSG to claim the Champions League title in 2020. Overall, Bayern has won the fixture seven times to PSG’s six victories (FBREF).
In the build-up to the match, Abendzeitung sports journalist Kilian Kreitmair captured (via @iMiaSanMia) Bayern’s Dayot Upamecano speaking about the tie, saying, “PSG have very good attackers. It will be a very big game.”
PSG’s attack as a whole has been exemplary this season, as the team has netted 36 goals in 12 league matches (FotMob). Standout players in the attack include the likes of Bradley Barcola, Marco Asensio, Kang-in Lee, and Ousmane Dembélé. While this collection of players might not seem as threatening as the trio of Neymar, Lionel Messi, and Kylian Mbappé, they pack a serious punch.
