Bayern Munich striker Mario Gomez has admitted the fact that his side was lucky in defeating http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/VfB-Stuttgart-c40879 at the weekend in the away game.
Gomez, who was playing against his former side on Sunday, has admitted that the luck was on their side when they sneaked a 2-1 victory at the Mercedes-Benz-Arena to end the weekend on top of the Bundesliga table. He stated that
the home side had many chances to score but they were unable to convert the opportunities coming their way.
Die Bayern downed Die Roten on Sunday courtesy a brace from Mario Gomez to reclaim the top spot. The side is now leading the standings table with 34 points with 11 wins from the 16 games played so far in the season. They are three
points ahead of German champions Borussia Dortmund, who drew their match against FC Kaiserslautern at the weekend.
Gomez claimed that it was a good day for his side as one of the players from the opposition was sent-off and they were reduced to ten men. He added that Stuttgart striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cacau-c8235 had a great chance to put things on level terms but
he missed the opportunity and Bayern won the game.
“Sometimes football is a crazy thing. One of their players was sent off but the game was under our control. [However,] it became too hectic and turned into a very close match. We were lucky that Cacau didn’t score. But, at the
end of the day, we deserved to win,” he was quoted as saying in an interview.
However, Dutch international http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arjen-Robben-c6521 claimed his side deserved to win as they played better and were dominant in possession. He also expressed his delight on reclaiming the top spot and wants the team to continue winning games.
“Before the game we said that he had to win. It was thought to be difficult to play against Stuttgart. But this was [an] important [victory] because we wanted to remain at the top of the table. That’s why we’re very happy,” the
former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 player concluded.
Bayern Munich will face FC Koln at the Allianz Arena in their next Bundesliga clash on Friday and will be looking to go six points clear at the top.
