FC Bayern picked up a good win on the road.
Bayern Munich convincingly beat Heidenheim 4-0 on Sunday in a match that the home side felt like there were missed opportunities to get back into the game. Specifically, a missed shot by Bayern Munich loanee Arijon Ibrahimović could have changed things in the eyes of Heidenheim.
“Looking back at the first half, we didn’t look good when we conceded. We got in each other’s way. We then changed things around, occupied the spaces differently and attacked earlier. We have to score, then it’d be 2-1, and then I know what my team is capable of. We’re coming out of this game with a positive feeling. We need stability and consistency,” said Heidenheim head coach Frank Schmidt (as captured by FCBayern.com). “The way we played in the second half gives us chances to pick up points. I believe in my team. We need to be more consistent. To be honest, today is not a benchmark and not an opponent we can use as a guide. But we have to take the individual moments with us.”
Attacker Stefan Schimmer also felt like his squad left a few goals on the pitch. Schimmer talked through a key miss that he had and also the one by Ibrahimović.
“Of course, we tried everything again in the second half and created some good chances, but ultimately we need to score the equalizer at the first opportunity. I could’ve done more with my chance. Arijon Ibrahimović also had a huge chance. Had that gone in, it might have been a different game here at home,” Schimmer.
