Capello: Kim couldn't handle Real Madrid's attack

Former Real Madrid coach Fabio Capello says Kim Min-jae was at fault during last night's draw with Real Madrid.

Bayern were held 2-2 at home by Real in the first-leg of their Champions League semifinal.

Capello said of the game: "The Champions League is quality, the quality that makes the difference. Real Madrid's passes put Kim in difficulty, out of position and Vinicius was on target twice.

"The former Napoli player was in great difficulty and will have difficulty playing again, it says a lot."

Capello also commented on Bayern's formation choices at the start of the match: "I have to make a note to (Thomas) Tuchel, in the first half the positions of (Jamal) Musiala and (Leroy) Sanè were wrong, then he changed them and another team came out, which saw the Spaniards struggle in the second half.

"I can't help but talk about (Manuel) Neuer, he made an incredible save on (Toni) Kroos."
