"You have to admire Vincent Kompany for having his team play so offensively in Paris - it was incredible. A turning point was the unfortunate handball penalty situation just before halftime. Something like that is brutal - you go into the dressing room with a negative feeling, while the opponent comes back motivated."
"But the way the team reacted - as they have so often before, for example in Freiburg, in Mainz, or even to some extent recently against Heidenheim - the way they came back, continued playing, and didn't give up, that's truly phenomenal."
"I actually wanted to fly to Paris, but Karl-Heinz (Rummenigge) and I haven't been to any away games so far. And then our guys said: 'If you fly with us now and we lose badly, that would be bad.' So I didn't want to be a jinx."
"As a Bayern fan, you think: Wow, so many goals conceded, can we even pull it off? As a neutral spectator in Seoul, New York, or Milan, you think: What's going on here? That was great advertisement for football as a whole."
Uli Hoeneß expressed confidence in Bayern Munich's head coach Vincent Kompany after the team's 5-4 loss to Paris Saint-Germain. He praised Kompany's offensive strategy and noted the impact of a handball penalty on the game's momentum. Hoeneß, who refrained from attending the match due to superstition, reflected on the emotional experience of watching the game as both a fan and a neutral spectator, acknowledging the excitement it brought to football.
