Aleksandar Pavlovic evolving into complete midfielder
Joshua Kimmich has been a key man for Bayern in the center of the park for several seasons. His performance against RB Leipzig was excellent. However, there is much more to talk about his partner in the midfield, Aleksandar Pavlovic.
The 22-year-old midfielder was not completely fit for the game for Bayern. However, he was fit to start the game and play for an hour. Pavlovic ended up making a significant impact in the hour he played.
The German international had a pass completion rate of 92% against RB Leipzig. He created three chances in the game and had 9 passes in the final third. Pavlovic also got himself on the scoresheet by perfectly timing his run in the box.
Along with excelling in possession, Pavlovic was also solid defensively against RB Leipzig. He made four recoveries in the game. The 60 minutes against Leipzig showed why Pavlovic is evolving into a complete midfielder, excelling defensively and offensively.
