Joshua Kimmich dissatisfied with Bayern Munich’s performance despite 2-1 win over Borussia Dortmund

Bayern Munich secured a narrow 2-1 victory over Borussia Dortmund in the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup, despite midfielder Joshua Kimmich expressing dissatisfaction with the team's performance. The German champions triumphed thanks to goals from Nathaniel Brown and Michael Olise, thwarting Dortmund's strong start. However, Kimmich, as reported by X account @iMiaSanMia, admitted that their first-half display left much to be desired.

He lamented that they were not active enough with the ball and failed to adequately support one another. Kimmich also lamented conceding goals, particularly from crosses, stating that the team needs significant improvement in this area. Furthermore, he criticized the team's inability to control and temper the game in the second half.

Kimmich expressed satisfaction with the result but, evidently, was not pleased with how they achieved it.
