Thomas Müller's picture goes viral as football fans mock the Bayern Munich star after the defeat

Thomas Müller was mocked by football fans online after Bayern Munich were beaten 4-1 by Barcelona in their Champions League match on Wednesday night.

The Catalan titans took the lead in the first minute through Raphinha, with Harry Kane then equalizing for Bayern.

However, Barcelona upped the ante and continued their impressive form under Hansi Flick after two more goals from Raphinha.

Former Bayern star Robert Lewandowski also got the better of his old club to complete the defeat, with the German giants now a shadow of the team that won the entire competition under Flick in 2020.

That year, Bayern memorably defeated Barcelona 8-2.

Muller scored twice on the night and has scored a total of eight goals against the LaLiga side over the course of his career.

At one point in last night's game, the cameras showed Muller sitting dejected on the bench as Barcelona raged.

And fans on social media were quick to stick the knife in the Germany international, who himself has made fun of Barcelona in the past.

“This picture just healed four years of trauma,” were the words of one fan.

A second said: “The moral of the lesson is to always remain humble, Thomas Müller.”

“This new Thomas Müller wallpaper definitely means more to Barça fans than the actual victory,” were the words of a third user.

Another wrote: “Oh Thomas Müller is sad, inject it into my vein.”

A fifth wrote: “Finally we silenced this clown and it feels so good. Where is Thomas Müller?”

And a sixth said: “Thomas Muller crying on my 4K TV. THIS IS MY LIFE, RN.”

To his credit, Müller went forward and spoke to the media after Bayern's narrow defeat.

The veteran blamed the defeat on a lack of self-confidence and said: “It’s obviously not a good feeling.”

“We came here to win but we lost 4-1 so there is still a lot of work for us to do.”

“Maybe we lacked confidence at the end because of the result and the way we played.”

“If we look back and analyze, we will see that Barcelona had more good moments than us.”

“I will say it seemed like we lacked confidence just because we didn’t push like we wanted to.”

“We didn't have the possession and control we were aiming for. We didn't play the way we could play; That’s what I meant.”

“Maybe it’s only human to get back up after a 4-1 defeat and try again, but it’s not that easy.”

“We had good possession of the ball, so the result was perhaps a bit strange.”

“We have to respect that they are a good team, that Raphinha had an almost perfect evening, while we missed good chances.”
