After a shock 3-3 draw in Norway against Viking on Tuesday night, Bayern Munich would be looking to avenge that performance against an RB Leipzig side that has been very hit-and-miss under head coach Martin Demichelis.
Heading into the game, Bayern held a 100% record at the Allianz Arena, while Leipzig had yet to win a game away from home, and that trend looked like it would continue within the first 15 minutes of the game when Luis Diaz opened the scoring when he was played through by Joshua Kimmich, and rifled it past Maarten Vandevoordt.
Diaz would then turn provider when he set up Aleksander Pavlovic, who was able to make it 2-0, and with Leipzig’s lack of ability to actually create anything in the first half, you would assume it would be game over already.
Michael Olise would then get involved minutes later when Harry Kane threaded a pass into the path of the Frenchman, whose outside-of-the-box effort left Vandevoordt stationary as Bayern made it 3-0.
Just after the break, Diaz would get his second of the game, following another assist from Kane, then the Englishman would also get involved with the scoring six minutes later to make it 5-0. The Colombian would then complete his hat-trick in the 69th minute when, from a corner, Diaz received the ball from Olise and his curling effort would be out of the reach of Leipzig’s Belgian number one.
Right at the end of the game, substitute Andrija Maksimovic would make it 6-1, his first-ever goal for Leipzig.
For Vincent Kompany’s side, that was the perfect response following their draw with Viking in midweek as well as the draw against Augsburg last weekend. They were ruthless in attack, especially after last week things just didn’t go their way on the attacking front, as well as effective in defence, limiting Leipzig to any meaningful chances.
This should give Bayern more confidence as they host Arsenal in the Champions League in midweek.
