The Bayern Munich winger is still haunted by the memory of the UEFA Champions League final loss to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 and is aiming for an improved campaign.
The Bavarian giants had a hugely disappointing season last term as they suffered defeat in the final of the UEFA Champions League at the hands of Chelsea. It was the second loss at the same stage in three years after the Germans
went down 2-0 in Madrid in 2010.
Jupp Heynckes’ side dominated the proceedings throughout the course of 90 minutes and had their fair share of scoring opportunities, but they failed to convert and lost out on penalties in the end. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Bastian-Schweinsteiger-c7374 missed
his shot from eight yards which led to the demise of the home side.
Ribery admits that the memory of that defeat earlier this year still haunts him. The winger claims that Bayern should have won the game as they had the best chances. He added that he was convinced that Thomas Muller’s goal in the
dying moments would be the decider, but http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Didier-Drogba-c11044 put Chelsea back in moments later.
“That was brutal, it was too much for my head. Never in our lives should we have lost that game. We played great, had lots of possession and chances and we were 1-0 up with just a few minutes remaining,” he was quoted as saying
in an interview.
The former Olympique Marseille man stressed that Bayern were again dominant in extra-time and had a penalty which Robben unfortunately missed. He wants to leave the disappointment from last season behind him and is aiming for a
strong comeback in the upcoming campaign.
“Then we conceded the equaliser, Robben missed a penalty in extra time and then we have that penalty shoot-out. I will never forget that for as long as I live,” the former Galatasaray man concluded.
Franck Ribery has thus far made 129 league appearances for Bayern Munich and has scored 43 times in the process. The winger had a brilliant campaign last term as he found the net 16 times and accumulated 26 assists for his teammates.
