'Monster'Kim Min-jae (Bayern Munich) is lonely.

Bayern Munich won 4-3 in the 20th round of the German Bundesliga in the 2024-2025 season against Holstein Kiel at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany on the 1st (Korea time). Bayern seemed to win easily with a 4-0 lead, but the defense collapsed at the last minute, allowing three goals and winning a sweat.

Bayern succeeded in winning the game in the second half, including six consecutive wins. He led the way with 51 points. Based on 20 games, 51 points are third in the club's history. In the 2013-2014 season, when Pep Guardiola took office and remained unbeaten until the 28th round, he scored 56 points in 20 games, the highest ever. Following this was 53 points in the 2015-2016 season, which was Guardiola's last season.

Kim Minjae is on this day I worked with Upamecano. He also started again with an ankle injury. Kim Min-jae is guarding Bayern's defense by consistently starting at a time when all of his partners are not normal. Kim Min-jae was close to perfection in the first half of the day. He saved a goal in the 26th minute of the first half. In a set-piece situation, Kill entered the fastball. Lewis Holtby took the lone chance to face the empty goal post. However, Kim Min-jae quickly ran to the goal line and cleared the ball. Kim Min-jae roared into the stands immediately after his success.

Kim Min-jae led the attack through a proper pass. In the 31st minute of the first half, he recorded a key pass leading to Jamal Musiala's shot. In the extra time, he beat the opponent's salary with his unique forward defense.

In the second half, the performance fell. It was because of the physical burden. Pass-miss also directly led to a loss. In the 17th minute of the second half, a pass to Serge Gnabry was cut off by the opponent, allowing Finn Porat to score. Amid the collapse of defense, Kim Min-jae worked hard at the last minute to prevent the opponent's attack. He kept a one-goal victory by blocking Kill's last attack in the last minute.

According to soccer statistics company Potmob, Kim Min-jae recorded a 93% pass success rate (86/92), one opportunity creation, two long passes successful, one final clear, one block, six recoveries, one ground competition successful, three aerial ball competitions, and zero dribbling breakthrough. The rating was not very good. HuscoordCom gave it a 6.9 rating, the third-lowest in the team. Foot mobs were lower. It was the second-lowest 7.1 points after goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.

The German media, which is not already friendly to Kim Min-jae, could not afford to leave the mistake alone. German Bild gave the lowest rating of 5 points 'Of course'. Germany scores 1-5 points, and the lower the score, the better. Bild made a huge save by blocking Holtby's shot in front of the goal line. They lost the ball when they lost a point, and Bayern was too far from the opponent when they lost a point for the second or third time. Weakness' criticized.

Another media outlet, TZ, also gave a low rating of four points. TZ blocked Keel's equaliser effort early on and blocked Holtby's shot from the goal line. But in the second half, Passmith provided an excuse for Kill's glorious score. Since then, he has continued to shake a little bit.

Even fans seem to be turning their backs. 90 mins in Germany "Kim Min-jae was mentally shaken. My concentration has gone down. He needs to be sorted out at the transfer market this summer"I introduced the opinion of a fan who criticized it intensely. Tribune also responded from Bayern fans, saying, "Kim Min-jae paid a lot of money to recruit, but I can't believe he can't let go of his worries in every game.", "Kim Min-jae should be on the bench. Dierna Josip Stanisic should be put in until Hiroki Ito returns" have a reaction from one's back.

It is fortunate that Bang Sang-Kompany, who highly values Kim Min-jae, still shows trust in Kim Min-jae. He said in a post-match press conference "80 minutes was a perfect match. But it was a game against a team that fought every moment. We started very well in the second half, but there are things we need to do with the players in finishing." Then "In the past few weeks, we've had some really good moments and some moments that need to be improved. That's our job. Now we are finally given a full week to train. We are in a very good position to work."
