Costa lobbed the ball over Leverkusen’s Germany U-20 midfielder Julian Brandt with a deft flick of his back heel in the 81st minute of Bayern’s 3-0 win at the Allianz Arena, which caused a stir after the match.
“I’d be careful. It looks good, the spectators clap, everything is wonderful and he does it very, very well,” Robben told Sky after the match. “But one shouldn’t forget the score was 3-0 at the time and you need to respect the opposition.
That was a bit dubious, I think. It belongs in the circus.”
