I want to make a very precise analysis. I don't want to beat around the bush. We didn't find a solution to the counterattacks and the individual play of the three (Lewandowski, Yamal, Raphinha).

Barcelona's Brazilian forward Rafin💖ha scored a hat-trick, while Polish striker Robert Lewandowski added another goal. The only goal for Bayern came from English striker Harry Kane.
