Oliver Kahn Reveals How Bayern Munich Will Beat Real Madrid In Champions League


Bayern Munich legend and goalkeeper, Oliver Kahn believes his former club can hurt Champions League holders, Real Madrid.

In the same vein, the Bavarians will be counting on Robert Lewandowski to activate a 'Ronaldo mode' of display.

Oliver Kahn has revealed that Real Madrid have phases throughout their games and the German champions must create enormous pressure in order to avoid their dangerous spells of possession.

Despite the threat Real Madrid can bring, Kahn is confident his old club will overcome Los Blancos and reach the final of the Champions League.

"There are enough possibilities to put Real Madrid under pressure and to put them in danger," the retired goalkeeper revealed in an interview.

"Real Madrid are a typical phase team.

"That is, they have phases in the game where they press extremely hard and make an extreme push that almost strangles the opponent."

The last time the Bavarians were in the Champions League final was in 2013 when they won the trophy with a 2-1 win against Jurgen Klopp's Borussia Dortmund and Kahn hopes for a Bayern and Liverpool final.

"Liverpool with Jurgen Klopp, that final would be a dream," he said.

"But Roma should not be underestimated."

The first leg of the Bayern vs Real Madrid tie takes place at the Allianz Arena at 20:45 CET on Wednesday, April 25.
