Arturo Vidal receives a yellow card at Bayern Munich
Seven minutes after entering for the first time in Bayern Munich, Arturo Vidal received a yellow card. The caution did not go unnoticed in Germany, where they remembered that during his stay at Bayer Leverkusen, the Chilean had an extremely high average of yellow cards. The midfielder did not take long to defend himself.
"It's my way of playing. I don't think people think I'm too rough. They already know me here. Besides, I wanted to play the ball. The referee told me I went in too hard and I don't see it that way," said Vidal, who received 37 yellow cards in his four seasons at Leverkusen.
The Chilean acknowledged the complexity of debuting with only a few days of training with his teammates and pointed out that he will improve not only on the field.
"I have to get fit quickly and get in sync with the team. But my most urgent task is to learn German, so I can communicate with my teammates and also with the referees," he said.
Regarding his adaptation to Guardiola's system, Vidal pointed out that "it's hard to start so quickly, but I have to get fit. In practice, I try to understand what the coach wants. I will improve with each passing day."
