Bayern Munich make solid case for defence under coach Vincent Kompany
Teamwork makes the dream work, so the saying goes, and at Bayern Munich they are living by that maxim as improvements in defensive solidity continue under coach Vincent Kompany.
Racking up seven successive clean sheets across all competitions since a 4-1 blip at Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League proves that Kompany's men were keen to learn from a stinging experience in the Catalan capital.
Sure enough, the Bavarians subsequently got down to business at the training ground and ironed out some creases that resulted in shutouts against Bochum, Mainz, Union Berlin, Benfica, St. Pauli, Augsburg and now also Paris Saint-Germain.
That run of seven straight wins, no goals conceded is the team's best spell since the start of the 2011/12 season under Jupp Heynckes when they kept 10 straight shutouts in all competitions.
