Bayern will play against Chelsea in the first round of the Champions League stage on Wednesday night. German media Bild revealed that in the last training before the game, coach Kompany introduced push-ups as a punishment for training.

At 14 noon on Tuesday, Bayern began their last pre-match training against Chelsea on Sebena Street. The report of "Bodiac" stated that after the relaxed warm-up session, the training intensity immediately increased. The team conducted a wild push-up training under the guidance of Kompany assistant coach Bram Geers.

training is carried out in this way: the players on the court are divided into five groups, and a super-large "ball grabbing" training is conducted in a small field. Instead of doing the traditional 5-on-2 mode, the player has to quickly change positions and grab the ball. The lost group must lie on the ground and do push-ups after each round.

Among them, Gretzka and Gnabry were particularly devoted: they fought for each ball and cheered for each victory. Gretzka, in particular, is still fighting for the starting position, and Pavlovic is more popular recently in terms of starting opportunities.

On the contrary, Jonathan Ta briefly complained to his teammate Olisse, because the latter didn't seem to be focused enough and did not devote 100% to the confrontation. And the French winger's push-ups also looked a little wrong, which was more like pelvic training...

For Kompani, the good news is: except for the long-term injured and the newly injured Guerrero (who suffered an abdominal muscle injury in the game against Hamburg), all players were present to participate in the training.

In addition to the starting battle between Gretzka and Pavlovic, the most concerned issue of Bayern's lineup in this game is: Can new player Jackson start against the old master? The report said the current trend is: he is more likely to sit on the bench first to make his debut as a substitute surprise.
