Joshua Kimmich cites improved focus for Bayern Munich in DFB-Pokal campaign

Joshua Kimmich attributes recent Bayern Munich performances in the DFB-Pokal to an increase in team stability and consistency. Following a victory over VfL Osnabrück at Stadion an der Bremer Brücke on September 2, the midfielder noted that the squad now maintains reliable principles regardless of the opponent. Historically, the club struggled with complacency in early-round cup matches against lower-division teams. Kimmich states that under head coach Vincent Kompany, the team prioritizes a consistent style of play rather than adjusting to the caliber of the opposition. This shift in mindset aims to avoid the errors that previously hampered Bayern Munich in knockout competitions. The club looks to sustain this tactical approach as they progress through the tournament.
