Head coach of Bavaria Niko Kovacs summed up the results of the International Cup of Champions and the first stage of training.

"Despite the defeat, I positively assess the outcome of the tour. As for physical fitness, we are in very good shape. We used these days very well and were able to reach a new level in terms of physical fitness and football skills, "Kovacs said before flying back to Munich.

"Much of what we have gained in training, we were able to translate into the game".

"During the backward movement, we allowed too many individual errors. This led to the creation of dangerous moments at our gates. We must work on this. There were many positive moments. When the entire team will meet we will have a completely different level of combat capability.

"The second part of the preparatory gathering of Bavaria will be attended by players who participated in the 2018 World Cup.

"I know that they have a shortage of training practice, it's perfectly normal. But we will dose the load so that all by the beginning of the season or at the latest to a break for the matches of the national teams were in the optimal form. I'm looking forward to working with the whole team. The level of training will then grow significantly ".
