RB Leipzig acknowledges poor effort, performance in loss to Bayern Munich

RB Leipzig managing director for sport Marcel Schäfer did not try to sugarcoat the scale of his team’s defeat against Bayern Munich. From Leipzig’s perspective, the performance was not simply a case of losing to a better opponent.

It was a reminder of just how much work remains before they can compete consistently at the highest level. “We were inferior in every area today and had no chance.

Obviously you can lose in Munich against Bayern, but we had such a bad day and Bayern had a good one. I think six goals even flattered us.
