Vincent Kompany praised the “hungry” reaction of Bayern Munich after ending a two-game windless series with Sunday's 4-0 Thrashing by Eintracht Frankfurt.
Michael Olise, Hiroki Ito, Jamal Musiala and Serge Gnabry were all on goal when Bayern recovered their eight-point advantage at the Bundesliga summit with a crushing victory over the third placed Eintracht.
The side of Kompany was held by defending champion Bayer Leverkusen in the competition before their midweek Champions League -similar play with Celtic who sent them to the knockout phases.
A comfortable victory over Eintracht, which only collected two shots on goal in the Allianz Arena, was the perfect response to those draws in the eyes of Boss Kompany.
“Now we have won, but we will remain calm as we did in recent days [after the two draws]”Kompany told a press conference.
“The few days that led to the competition that we thought was sharper. There were many reasons for us to get a result today.
“The intensity of both sides was quite high from the start and we managed to tilt the game to our advantage. The players showed that they were hungry.
“The effort, the enthusiasm – it was all there. Our goal is always to bring that to the field. And now we go quietly to the next game, where we want to win again.”
