Next, they talk about Joshua Kimmich, Bayern, and a brief recap of key moments from the game itself (24:30). Then they discuss mustaches in football (32:01), how Bayern’s high line will cope with Mbappe, Neymar, and Di Maria (36:26), and Inter’s dominant win over Shakhtar Donetsk whilst looking forward to the Europa League final against Sevilla (39:50) and the Women’s Champions League quarterfinals, which begin on Friday (42:26).
