Bayern will have to do without him from now on.<\/p>\n<p>Bayern are preparing for perhaps their toughest game of the season so far, with their head coach suspended and assistant Aaron Danks reportedly set to take his place. <\/p>\n<p>Kompany took part in Bayern&#8217;s training on Monday before departing for Paris, but will be barred from the team&#8217;s dressing room and the Parc des Princes bench on Tuesday. <\/p>\n<p>Harry Kane said: &#8220;We will miss him on the touchline. He is our boss and a coach we want to play with.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>expensive yellow card<\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s all because Kompany was booked in Bayern. <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">Thrilling victory in the quarterfinals<\/span> He took on Real Madrid after challenging the referee&#8217;s decision to allow Madrid to continue playing and score after a brutal tackle on Bayern defender Josip Stanisic.<\/p>\n<p>It was Bayern&#8217;s 12th Champions League game of the season and Kompany&#8217;s third yellow card. He said UEFA should relax the rules now that more matches are being played than ever before. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is an expanded format, the strictest ruling in history with a lot of interpretation by the referee, and sometimes he gets the yellow card wrong. So what happens?&#8221; Kompany said after the match. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not happy about this, but that&#8217;s not the point. The team is capable of doing that and I&#8217;ll be there for the comeback game. I have complete faith in the team, in the staff, not only to continue, but to take strength and motivation from it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>PSG manager Luis Enrique praised the work Kompany has done since taking over two years ago.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Vincent Kompany is a coach at the highest level and Bayern are one of the teams I like to watch the most,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They&#8217;re so beautiful to watch. I like all the coaches, but especially the offensive coaches. He&#8217;s definitely one of them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>Danks stand on the biggest stage<\/h2>\n<p>Danks is one of Kompany&#8217;s three primary assistants and also has head coaching experience. However, there aren&#8217;t that many.<\/p>\n<p>The 42-year-old English coach is a set-piece specialist. <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">coached 2 games<\/span> In 2022, he took over as interim manager at Aston Villa, beating Brentford 4-0 before losing to Newcastle by the same score. <\/p>\n<p>Preparation wasn&#8217;t easy either.<\/p>\n<p>Coming off the Bundesliga title, Bayern wanted to rest their key players for Saturday&#8217;s game against Mainz, but Kompany had to bring on Kane, Michael Oliseh and Jamal Musiala to come from behind to win 4-3 after falling 3-0 down.<\/p>\n<h2>Musiala reunites with PSG<\/h2>\n<p>Musiala will play against PSG for the first time since breaking his foot in last season&#8217;s Club World Cup match against France. <\/p>\n<p>The attacking midfielder did not return until January, but has been in excellent form with two goals and four assists in his last five games, most recently assisting Luis Diaz&#8217;s decisive third goal in the second leg against Madrid.<\/p>\n<p>Lennart Karl was on holiday with the Bayern team during Musiala&#8217;s injury absence, but the 18-year-old has been sidelined for the past three weeks with a muscular problem and is likely to miss Tuesday&#8217;s match. Forward Serge Gnabry is out with a muscle strain. <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">excluded him from the World Cup<\/span> Too.<\/p>\n<h2>double\/triple shot<\/h2>\n<p>The Champions League is not just part of Bayern&#8217;s bid to win the treble. Even more unusual results are possible. <\/p>\n<p>Bayern are aiming for a triple-double in the league, cup and Champions League for both the men&#8217;s and women&#8217;s teams. The Bayern women&#8217;s team has already won the German league and reached the final of the German Cup. <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">Level 1-1 with Barcelona<\/span> Women&#8217;s Champions League semi-final.<\/p>\n<p>___<\/p>\n<p>AP Soccer: <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/soccer<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/bayern-munich-psg-champions-league-kompany-f9b490d2ac51c8d2c74a7d3f8c5f436b\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The main reason is Vincent Kompany&#8217;s influence as a coach. bayern munich It&#8217;s the Champions League semi-final.
