Joshua Kimmich (6/10)

Kimmich had a much tougher time against Vinícius in the second leg, but he still held his own and was decent on the ball. His presence was certainly missed in the middle of the park.

Matthijs de Ligt (7/10)

The Dutchman's return shored up the Bayern back-line and gave the team more composure and assuredness in defense. He made a number of vital recoveries for his side, and had a game-high ten clearances.

Eric Dier (6/10)

Dier was solid and composed in defense, continuing his strong run of form since joining Bayern Munich. He did not do much wrong and complemented de Ligt well at center-back.

Noussair Mazraoui (6/10)

Mazraoui worked hard for the team but still had problems against the dangerous Rodrygo. He didn't offer much in attack until late on, when he was controversially adjudged to be offside moments before Bayern thought they had scored the equalizer.

Konrad Laimer (6/10)

Laimer wasn't able to impact the game like he did in the first leg. But he still put in a decent shift and helped recover a lot of balls. The Austrian international also helped keep Jude Bellingham quiet.

Aleksandar Pavlovic (7/10)

Pavlovic was given the surprise nod to start and did not look overawed by the occasion whatsoever. He distributed the ball well and kept working for the team until the very end despite having to deal with cramps in the closing stages.
