Cologne will face Bayern in the second round of the German Cup tonight. Before the game, team coach Lucas Quasniak not only praised Bayern coach Kompany's professionalism, but also gave him great praise as a person.

Quasniok met Kompany earlier at a joint coaching seminar. He had a very good impression of the latter as a coach and as a person: "I met him one night during a refresher course, and he was very likable at the time."

"He opened up the conversation there and told a lot of stories, and it felt like that. It's like an internal training. He's a giant, like a bear - but he has a very, very soft heart."

In addition to being a person, Quasniok also praised Kompany as a coach: "He brings his desire to a team that may already be a little content. The defender injects a unique style into Bayern's work - no mercy. And the players completely follow his path because they see that they can make you breathless. "

Kwasniok continued to praise: "It is almost impossible to beat Bayern because they are so exciting. Unbelievably good. I have rarely seen a top team willing to invest so much. They have an unyielding will to win the Triple Crown."

Of course, this is also due to Kompany. He took office in the summer of 2024 and led the team to win the Bundesliga title after the season. His team remains undefeated in three competitions so far this season.
