How do you assess your performances in the group so far?
“Differently. It’s super that we beat Newcastle twice. A draw against Milan – we could have won that game too. But they also had some dangerous opportunities. And things didn’t go well for us in Paris, although there were opportunities in that game. It’s a good starting position, now it’s down to us.”

“Labor Day came a day early for us,” said Bayern president Herbert Hainer. “It was a hard game, you saw the unease in the team, but in the end we won deservedly. Now it’s in our hands — and that’s the best you can wish for, when you don’t have to rely on others. I’m pleased for Serge Gnabry that he scored. Kingsley Coman played very well, he kept trying and in the end made it a 2-0 win.”

The situation in Group F is complicated: Even if BVB were to win at the Centro Sportivo Vismara, the AC Milan youth stadium, on Tuesday (kick-off at 14:30 CET, LIVE on BVB TV) and take over pole position in the group, the team would still not have any guarantee of progression. “Whatever happens, it will go down to the final matchday,” emphasised coach Mike Tullberg. AC Milan are currently top with nine points, followed by BVB (seven) and Paris Saint-Germain (six). Newcastle United are out of the running with one point. PSG will travel to the Brackel Youth Performance Centre on Wednesday 13 December (kick-off 16:00 CET), while Milan will pay a visit to Newcastle.

Stein previously played for Viktoria Berlin moving to Köpenick for the 2019/20 season. The six-foot two keeper developed into a regular for Union’s U17s where he also played 21 competitive matches in the U19 Bundesliga. The Berlin native has been a member of the professional squad since this season. Stein also made five full-time appearances in the UEFA Youth League. In May last year, the goalkeeper was nominated for a DFB U19 training programme, where he was on the pitch for one half of a friendly against Denmark without conceding a goal.

VfL Wolfsburg will be without midfielder Mattias Svanberg for the remaining two games of the season.

Exciting is one way to put it. Bild am Sonntag termed it a “snail race” instead, after the stumbles in recent weeks of both the Bavarians and their top rivals Borussia Dortmund.
