Bayern out of Champions League Beaten by Inter in quarter-finalsKompany optimistic about futureFollow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱WHAT HAPPENED?
Bayern earned a creditable 2-2 draw at Inter on Wednesday night but lost 4-3 on aggregate to exit the Champions League at the quarter-final stage. Manager Kompany struck an optimistic tone after the match, saying, "That's football, that's life," and that they could win trophies in the not-so-distant future.

He said after the game: "Football is all about details. When you look at how the two games went, we wouldn't have wished for a lot different, except the goals we conceded. We knew about Inter's strengths going forward and from set pieces – but we were also dangerous and had our chances. We're not going to play the final in Munich, but in 5 months there will be Champions League again and a lot of games in Munich. That's football, that's life. In two months we have the Club World Cup and we'll try to win another title. Of course it's bitter that we're out of the Champions League, but we had our chances."
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Bayern can still lift some silverware this season as they are six points clear at the top of the Bundesliga with five games remaining. And this experience may be an important one as the German giants aim to be the champions of Europe again.
