The 2025/26 season’s opening silverware was bagged by Bayern Munich. A 2-1 win against the DFB-Pokal champions VfB Stuttgart brought the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup, home after two long years.
A key player in this victory was an almost-reborn Leon Goretzka. His attacking prowess and exceptional positioning were finally well-utilized by manager Vincent Kompany. His partnership with Kimmich brought some of the best chances in the first half.
The #8 spoke about the areas for improvement, following the game.
“There are definitely lots of things we can do better,” he said, according to FCBayern.com.
First speaking on what was done right, he mentioned the press. “The style of pressing we want to play is right for Bayern and us as a team. We’re 100 percent behind that,” he explained.
Next, on the areas for improvement, he cited the errors the team made. “We made some needless mistakes with the ball today.”
Certainly, given how massively Goretzka has improved, it is guaranteed that the team is on the right track, and is en route to win it all this year.
