Good point about Musialas performance, in the end you’re right he did have a big part in all 3 goals. Maybe just my frustration at Muller not getting minutes.
And yeah DAZN showed a distance covered graphic and it really showed how much better our conditioning is than the Gala players. Musiala, Kimmich, Laimer all more distance covered than all but one Gala player, and yet our guys looked much more up for it at the end of the match.
I really like Laimer’s effort level and willingness to do what needs to be done, at RB or CM. Just was a half step behind early in the game and suffered a few unlucky bounces. To be fair this was a nightmare game for a Center mid the way Galatasaray was pressing.
