Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany appeared in press statements after beating Shakhtar 5-1 in the sixth round of the Champions League.

The coach said: “ “ We kept our cool after their early goal. We were the better team in the first half, although it was not our best period. Our performance improved later and it was good to play today.”

He added: “In a way Overall, we were dominant, we had more chances than the opponent. But of course, we can always play better.”

He added: “Do you want Muller to stay beyond the current season? Let's talk about these 90 minutes. His goal was the quality he has always had in his career, to be in the right place at the right time. His energy, passion and leadership, it is very important for us to have a mix of experienced and young players. He has a very important role on and off the field. But I will not talk about the future now.”

He concluded: “How did you respond to counterattacks? I think we defended very well in general. But we still have to evolve. Sometimes you can be vulnerable to counterattacks when you are too dominant. We will continue to work in detail about these moments. But we could have won 5-0 and I still say we have to improve.”
