Results Over Rituals: Kompany Downplays Birthday After Madrid Victory
Vincent Kompany insisted his birthday comes second to football after Bayern Munich beat Real Madrid 2-1 at the Santiago Bernabéu. Goals from Harry Kane and Luis Díaz gave Bayern a slender lead ahead of the return leg. The win also marked Kompany’s 100th match as Bayern coach, where he has accumulated 76 wins, 13 draws and 11 defeats. He described birthday celebrations as a “bonus” later in the knockout rounds, saying, “We are in priority mode.” Bayern sits nine points clear at the top of the Bundesliga and now prepares for a DFB-Pokal semi-final against Bayer Leverkusen. A place in the Champions League semi-finals is firmly within reach.
