The hidden worries behind Bayern Munich's winning streak: Effenberg's calm reminder
In the past week, Bayern Munich has demonstrated their strong strength with impressive results. The team first defeated Holstein Kiel 6-1, then swept Dinamo Zagreb 9-2, and finally easily defeated Werder Bremen 5-0, scoring 20 goals in three consecutive games. Although this wave of victories made the fans excited, Bayern legend Effenberg calmly pointed out the challenges the team may face in an interview with Sport1.
### Offensive firepower is full, Bayern shows unprecedented "greed"
Since Kompany took over as head coach, Bayern Munich has been rejuvenated. The team showed a strong desire to score goals on the offensive end. The high-pressure pressing and smooth cooperation within 90 minutes made the opponent almost powerless. Effenberg expressed great appreciation for this: "Since Kompany took office, Bayern has once again shown a kind of greed, the desire to score goals within 90 minutes." Such an evaluation is undoubtedly an affirmation of the team's recent performance.
### Defensive risks: the test of facing stronger opponents
However, Effenberg's comments are not entirely optimistic. He specifically reminded that although Bayern performed well against weaker teams, the team will face stronger and more tactically mature opponents in future games. Upcoming opponents include Bundesliga powerhouse Leverkusen, as well as Europa League team Frankfurt and last season's runner-up Stuttgart, whose ball possession and tactical discipline are significantly higher than Bayern's recent opponents.
Effenberg believes that Bayern Munich's playing style is full of adventures, giving opponents the opportunity to break through the defense: "If the opponent can beat Bayern's two lines of defense, then there will be a lot of offensive space." This means that Bayern may need to make adjustments when facing higher-level teams to avoid defensive loopholes due to aggressive tactics.
### Challenges are imminent, can Bayern continue to win?
Next, Bayern Munich will face several tough battles, and Leverkusen, Frankfurt and Stuttgart are undoubtedly very strong opponents. Effenberg is looking forward to seeing whether Bayern can continue its current winning streak, but also warned that the team may encounter more resistance in these games. As the game progresses, Bayern Munich's performance will directly reflect whether Kompany's tactics can gain a foothold in the top game.
### Conclusion
Bayern Munich has shown strong offensive firepower and unremitting desire to score goals in its recent winning streak, but facing the upcoming Bundesliga powerhouses, they must be more cautious in tactics. Effenberg's reminder sounded the alarm for the team - attacking blindly is exciting, but defense is also crucial in a field surrounded by strong enemies. The next few tough battles will be a touchstone for Bayern's true strength.
