MUNICH, Germany: Bayern Munich coach Louis van Gaal admitted his side was simply not good enough after it was effectively knocked out of the Champions League on Tuesday after suffering a 2-0 defeat at home to Bordeaux.
It was Bayern's first home European defeat in five years as Bordeaux striker Marouane Chamakh took advantage of a mistake in the home side's defense to score a late goal after midfielder Yoann Gourcuff netted a first-half header.
"In such an important game, it is always important to score a goal, which we didn't do," said van Gaal.
