The former Bayern goalkeeper wants the German team to be "positively cocky" when it faces what may be the best team in the world. Bayern Munich has already practically lost the Bundesliga, and now its main focus will be to get the big upset in the UEFA Champions League. For that to happen it will need, as any sports movie will tell you, to believe it can be done.
"In big international matches, the tactical, psychological side is essential," said Kahn when asked about the match up.
The keeper also believes that Bayern Munich can take advantage of the impending Clasico, and what may be a distracted team to get the edge on the Spanish giant. It also helps that Spanish teams have a bit of a hang-up when it comes to Bayern Munich.
"The Spaniards call Bayern 'the black beast.' I am sure that for Madrid, after Barcelona, Bayern is the second ogre. We have to take advantage of that, it's where we have the opportunity," said the former Munich star.
Kahn may have a point, especially since it seems Madrid's only weak point is specifically the psychological one. It takes a bit after its temperamental coach, and when teams have tried to take advantage of those tempers they have gotten great results.
