Max Eberl expressed his bafflement over the goals conceded in the 2-2 draw with Mainz 05, noting the visitors scored with “basically only two attacks,” highlighting the unpredictable nature of football.
Bayern Munich’s 2-2 draw against bottom-side FSV Mainz 05 was met with frustration from the club’s hierarchy regarding the nature of the goals conceded, according to a report from post-match analysis.
Despite Bayern’s control of the game, the hosts allowed the two decisive goals from extremely limited opportunities provided to the visiting side.
Board member for sport Max Eberl commented on the opponent’s clinical finishing, highlighting how efficiently Mainz capitalized on their chances.
Eberl stated: “They basically only had two attacks, namely the set piece and the second goal, and then suddenly they’re 2-1 up. And you’re wondering how. But that’s just football.”
The dramatic result saw Bayern need a late penalty from star striker Harry Kane to secure a point, salvaging a draw after trailing in the second half.
Eberl’s remarks reflect the team’s missed opportunities and the harsh reality that defensive lapses, regardless of dominance, can lead to disappointing results.
