Franz Beckenbauer slams Bayern Munich stars

The Germans were a pale imitation of their usual selves, with two glaring defensive errors giving them a mountain to climb in the second leg.

“I have not seen a single Bayern player who showed his normal form,” Beckenbauer told Sky. “It was a black night. Sometimes this happens and it happened tonight.

“When you have a keeper playing badly or a defender playing badly that is not unusual. But in this match they all ‘worked together’ to achieve this result.” 

On Dante’s error, which allowed Ricardo Quaresma to get his and Porto’s second goal, Beckenbauer said: “If he was from Iceland or the North Pole, I’d say ‘okay, he is still wearing his ski boots’. But no, he simply has to stop the ball.”
