On October 31, Bayern Munich will face Mainz in the DFB-Pokal. Ahead of the match, Bayern’s head coach Kompany attended a press conference.
About the Opponent
Mainz is a team that excels in physical play, they like to apply constant pressure from compressed spaces. Their players are always clear-headed, which can be seen in all aspects of their game. This is a cup match, not an easy task. We are preparing for it and looking forward to the game. Advancing to the next round is crucial.
About the Importance of the DFB-Pokal
In my view, there is no question of importance; I only focus on the next match. For us, this is as important as a final. We want to win and will do our utmost to secure a victory away from home.
About the Ballon d’Or
I know Rodrigo very well. He is an excellent player. Winning this award is a significant achievement. Vinicius and Kane are also outstanding. The longer I know Kane, the more convinced I am that he cares not only about scoring goals but also about bringing success to the team. For this, he spares no effort.
About Mainz’s Pitch Conditions
Sometimes pitch conditions can affect the course of the game. But we don’t consider these factors. We can play in the Himalayas. What matters is that we perform better than the other team tomorrow and win.
About Bayern’s Performance in the DFB-Pokal in Recent Years
We cannot change the past, but what we can do is bring our best to tomorrow’s match. This is the focus of our work, and I have great confidence in the players.
