Thomas Muller said Sadio Mane had inadvertently warned him not to pass the ball to former teammate Robert Lewandowski. Bayern Munich welcomes Barcelona to the Allianz Arena as Lewandowski makes a quick return to the team he left eight weeks ago.
Robert Lewandowski’s return to Bavaria is the main story of this week’s match, and with good reason. The 34-year-old, who is second behind Gerd Muller in the club’s all-time top scorer table, has scored 344 goals in 375 matches for Bayern.
Muller, who will be 33 on match day, revealed that Sadio Mane had jokingly advised the Germans not to pass out of habit to his former teammate when the two faced each other. “Sadio jokes that I should not make mistakes during the game and give the ball to Lewandowski. Tomorrow we have to play our game and not focus too much on Lewy.”‘ said Muller.

‘“Our bond on the field has grown over time. But now we have all-round players ahead of us and we don’t have a single reference. The opponents don’t know who the regular striker is and we have to train him.”‘
Bayern have dominated their encounters with the Catalan club recently, including two 3-0 wins in the group stage of the previous campaign and the legendary 8-2 defeat of the La Liga team in the quarterfinals two years ago. After the first round of group games last week, Muller thinks both teams will have the maximum points, making Tuesday’s match fun for the audience.
Next said: “We want to get ourselves into duels and we want to be tough after losing the ball. The game will be open. I think tomorrow will be a game that the impartial audience will love.”
