Xabi Alonso has studied the increasingly productive direction of Bayern Munich game under Kompany, and he is also very aware that his rival's strength has increased significantly compared to last season. Implementing a defensive strategy and counterattacking when there is an opportunity is the best decision, because it is very difficult to beat Munich when they are in top form, especially when acting as hosts. A fair result for both teams, Munich struggled to find a winning goal despite dominating the match for most of the time due to Leverkusen solid defense. As for Alonso, this result was as expected.
Both teams will try to be more consistent throughout this season, especially in the Bundesliga because both are also in the Champions League this season. But for the matches in the Bundesliga this season, especially for these two teams, it will always be a more interesting match because both will also meet again this season so Xabi Alonso must also be able to improve their best performance in addition to making a stronger defense in their back line. Because a strong enough defense can also be short-lived when their opponents attack them continuously during the match, so Xabi Alonso must think smarter when he meets a strong opponent like Munich again this season.
