In the early morning of October 19, Bayern will face Dortmund at home in the seventh round of the Bundesliga. Bayern coach Kompany accepted an interview with the media and talked about the German national derby.

Kompany said: "This type of game not only depends on the state of the team, it has its own narrative and event attributes. Although the two cities are far apart, it feels like a derby."

"This is a national derby, and emotional factors will play a greater role than other games. - That's what makes it unique. The two games against Dortmund last season were great and we drew twice. The moment you stepped on the court, you could tell that this was a special game. At the end of the day, three points are important in every game, but even more so in a match like this."Mini-game recommendations:BLOCOPS
