Before the start of the season, many predicted that Bayern Munich would continue the crisis they experienced throughout last season, during which they failed to win any trophies. There was especially a lot of skepticism surrounding the appointment of Vincent Kompany as head coach, as he was relegated from the English Premier League with Burnley last season. However, the start of the season has dispelled all fans’ concerns.
So far, Bayern confidently leads the Bundesliga, having won all four matches. No other team in the league has achieved this. Initially, Bayern had modest victories over Wolfsburg (3-2) and Freiburg (2-0), but then they truly dominated Holstein Kiel (6-1) and Werder Bremen (5-0).
Bayern had an absolutely spectacular start in the Champions League. In the first round, the Munich team became the first team in the tournament’s history to score nine goals in a single match, thrashing Dinamo Zagreb 9-2 at home.
After a fantastic last season, Bayer managed to retain all their key players and sign several very strong footballers, notably Aleix Garcia, the former captain of the sensational Girona. Most importantly, Bayer’s management persuaded head coach Xabi Alonso, the architect of their championship season, to stay at the club.
However, in the second round, Bayer suffered their first Bundesliga defeat since May 2023. In a home match, the “pharmacists” led RB Leipzig 2-0 but ultimately lost 3-2. Nonetheless, in two matches this season, Bayer has done what they do best—snatch victories in stoppage time. Against Borussia Mönchengladbach (3-2), Bayer scored a penalty in the dying minutes, while against Wolfsburg (4-3), Victor Boniface scored in the 90+3 minute. Only the victory against Hoffenheim (4-1) came without any drama.
Like Bayern, Bayer had an incredible start in the Champions League. In the first half, the Leverkusen team scored four goals against Feyenoord, and no goals were scored by either team in the second half.
