Bayern goalie Ulreich ready to make amends

Vows not to let Madrid mistake ruin his ‘best’ season

Last updated:

Berlin: Bayern Munich goalkeeper Sven Ulreich insists he will not allow his costly mistake in the Champions League semi-final to spoil the “best season” of his career.

Ulreich completely misjudged a back pass in Tuesday’s second leg in Madrid, gifting Karim Benzema a simple goal in the 2-2 draw and Bayern eventually bowed out 4-3 on aggregate.

“I won’t let it ruin the season,” Ulreich told Bild in his first interview since the mishap.

“We have had an outstanding season and I have put in several good games at a high level. It’s been my best season.” Ulreich has kept 17 clean sheets in 44 appearances this season and Bayern are on course for a league and cup double, having already wrapped up the Bundesliga title.
