#4 A bad game for Alexis Sanchez
While the Chilean's future is currently the hottest topic in the transfer market, Sanchez failed to fire on the pitch for his country. He and Vidal were expected to play the leading roles against an inexperienced German lineup. The Bayern midfielder played his part but Sanchez was not at his usual best.
The forward was guilty of overrunning with the ball in crowded spaces and he also chose a difficult option to pass rather than a simple one. He could not beat Joshua Kimmich on the left flank with Matthias Ginter also making life difficult for the Arsenal man. Chile's number 7 got a fine chance in the stoppage time but his free-kick was brilliantly saved from Ter Stegen.
After the disappointment of losing a final, the onus will be on Sanchez deciding his next move. Bayern Munich and Manchester City wait patiently for their target's arrival in England.
