And yet here they are in the KO rounds. They’ve done just about good enough. Plus it’s a tiny sample size of 3 away games, not enough for a pattern.
If Bayern had a 1-1 at Anfield they’d be in a great position.
But being vulnerable to an away goal against a team perfectly set up to play counter attacks at pace puts this fixture on a knife-edge, IMHO.
I’m a little surprised Bayern didn’t push harder in the 1st leg. A 2-1 defeat might even have been preferable.
But not in a convincing way, I know their group was hard but still. Maybe not a pattern, but I think it's fair to say Liverpool away seems to suffer a lot more than at home in Anfield.
About you being surprised we didn't push harder: You have to understand where we come from this season. We've been letting goals in left and right, it was all about getting from Anfield with a decent result. Us going up and attacking them wouldn't neccesarily have meant we got away goal we needed. I'm definitely satisfied with the 0-0 draw, all we have to concentrate on now is winning, we don't have to concentrate on away goals as long as we get the win.
