Following their 3-1 loss to Arsenal in the Champions League, Bayern Munich manager Joshua Kimmich stated that Paris Saint-Germain presented a tougher challenge this season. He noted that Mikel Arteta’s team tends to “rely on set pieces” and “favor long balls.”<\/p>\n

Bayern experienced their first defeat of the season at the Emirates Stadium, with scores from Julian Timber, Noni Maduke, and Gabriel Martinelli.<\/p>\n

Although Vincent Kompany’s team had previously defeated the reigning champions PSG 2-1, Kimmich believed Bayern faced a greater threat from PSG, describing their match as offering “more of a football game.”<\/p>\n

“No, I don’t agree,” Kimmich told TNT Sport when asked if Arsenal were the most challenging opponents Bayern had encountered this year. \u201cI believe PSG posed a bigger difficulty, particularly in terms of their style of play.”<\/p>\n
