National player Linda Dallmann played a crucial role in Bayern’s quarter-final second leg. She also appeared to be in a good mood after the game.
For the first time in five years, FC Bayern’s women managed to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League. After the 3-2 first leg win, the Munich team also beat Manchester United 2-1 in the second leg. Linda Dallmann played a decisive role in the final score with her goal. Even after the final whistle, she was the focus.
On the Disney+ microphone, she analyzed her own hit with amusement. “It either goes onto the stadium roof or into the goal,” she commented on her direct shot from almost 14 meters. With a laugh she added: “It half slipped off me. I couldn’t play it from there.”
The 74-time German international also had a funny saying with a view to the semi-finals. It will most likely be against FC Barcelona, against whom the Munich team lost 7-1 at the start of the league phase. “I don’t remember at all,” claimed Dallmann with a grin in the direction of TV expert and former national player Josephine Henning.
The Catalans won their quarter-final first leg 6-2 against Real Madrid, the second leg will take place on Thursday evening in Barcelona (6.45 p.m., in the live ticker on t-online). Barça have only lost one competitive game in all competitions this season and are therefore once again the big favorites for the Champions League title.
National team captain Giulia Gwinn did not look ahead to the semi-finals after the game, but instead spoke about the record crowd against Manchester United. “I’m overwhelmed. Celebrating in front of such a backdrop with your own fans is nice,” she said. 25,000 fans streamed into the Allianz Arena, a record that has never been greater for a Bayern Women’s CL home game. Getting ahead fit the bill for Gwinn: “This is exactly the evening you want as an athlete.”
