Martin Demichelis, the Argentine coach, expressed his profound disappointment with his team's performance, stating that the manner of the defeat was particularly difficult to accept. Demichelis emphasized that the team owed their fans an apology, acknowledging that losing in Munich was an exceptionally tough task.\n\nThe Argentine coach admitted that his side was too passive without the ball and offered no resistance when in possession during the match. Demichelis lamented that his team appeared like a completely different entity compared to the one they had showcased in their previous two games. Despite making two substitutions at halftime, Demichelis lamented that he could have made all five changes available to him if necessary.\n\nDemichelis emphasized that the defeat was not an individual player's fault but rather a collective team issue. He urged supporters not to single out specific players, instead urging them to focus on the overall performance of the team.",
