Source context
Bayern Munich defeated Atlético Madrid in a very calculating 2-0 victory at the vaunted Metropolitano. Lennart Karl scored the game winner in the 54th minute but that forced Atletico to make offensive substitutions and press for a game-tying goal. After 20 dangerous minutes, Harry Kane sucked in the Atlético defense to find a flying Konrad Laimer on the other side of the pitch. Laimer walked the ball straight toward goal before ripping a shot into the roof of the net. In the postgame interview (captured via @iMiaSanMia), Laimer detailed his thought process on his goal that put the game out of reach. “The boys told me: why did you take too long to shoot?” said Laimer.
