Bundesliga: led by Harry Kane, Bayern Munich outperforms Borussia Dortmund and wins the Klassiker!

Gala shock in Germany. On the occasion of the 10th day of the Bundesliga, Borussia Dortmund hosted Bayern Munich at Signal Iduna Park on Saturday in a warm atmosphere. An already terribly important meeting in the title race for which Thomas Tuchel decided to line up a 4-2-3-1 with the irresistible Harry Kane at the forefront. Kingsley Coman and Dayot Upamecano also started this Klassiker. Humiliated in the Cup by Saarbrücken, a German D3 club, the Bavarians, runners-up to Bayer Leverkusen and still undefeated in the league, wanted to raise their heads and thus make an impression. For its part, the club coached by Edin Terzic, fourth at kick-off with 21 points, hoped to win against the Munich rival to climb onto the podium and build confidence before hosting Newcastle on Tuesday in the Champions League. Champions.

Organized in 4-2-3-1 with Niclas Füllkrug on the attacking front, just behind a trio composed of Julian Brandt, Marco Reus and Donyell Malen, the Marsupials would however quickly break down against the strike force of the Bavarian Rekordmeister . On a first corner hit to the right by Sané, Upamecano dominated Schlotterbeck and deceived Kobel with a powerful header (0-1, 4th). Unleashed, the Munich residents were quick to make the break. At the end of a lightning counter initiated by Davies and led by Goretzka, Kane, served by Sané, doubled the lead from the right (0-2, 9th). His 13th goal in the league. Musiala’s surgical teammates thus air-conditioned Signal Iduna Park and maintained control. Following the momentum of its offensive demonstration against Darmstadt during the 9th day (8-0), Bayern was even close to flying away but Kane saw his shot repelled by the post (31st) before being flagged off. game. On the bench, Edin Terzic decided to send several players to warm up even before the end of the first half hour of play…

Kane scores a hat-trick for his first Klassiker!

Asphyxiated, particularly in the midfield, Borussia Dortmund did not exist in this shock. If Malen sounded, somewhat, revolt just before the break (45+1), Bayern gave a real lesson to its historic rival. Returning from the locker room, the partners of Sané, double passer in the first period, remained masters of the debates despite the entry into play of Niklas Sule. Musiala quickly forced Kobel into a superb save (46th) before seeing his goal refused for offside (48th). Suffering, Borussia Dortmund grew bolder as the minutes passed and Reus finally called on Neuer (57th). For his part, Edin Terzic threw Adeyemi and Nmecha but the score barely changed. Imprecise in the last gesture, the locals even bordered on correction on a new attempt by the untenable Musiala (64th). The latter also saw a new goal refused to him for an offside position (70th). No matter, Harry Kane decided, immediately, to repair the possible damage.

Served by Coman, the English international easily finished with a shot placed in the small net and scored his 14th goal in the Bundesliga (0-3, 72nd). Disappointed, the Dortmund supporters gradually left the stadium as Haller entered the game. An anecdotal change as Bavarian superiority remained indisputable. Taking advantage of Borussia’s ultra-offensive system, determined to save honor, Bayern continued to be threatening on counter-attacks and remained very solid defensively, as evidenced by the XXL match delivered by Kim Min-Jae. Despite a last golden opportunity for the BvB, Moukoko was completely missed (88th) and the score was even going to be a little higher with a new achievement from Kane, author of a hat-trick and impressive for his first Klassiker (0-4, 90+4th). With this convincing victory (4-0), Bayern Munich consolidates its second place in the standings and comes within two short lengths of Bayer Leverkusen. Also a good omen before challenging Galatasaray next Wednesday on the European stage. For its part, Borussia Dortmund remains at the foot of the podium with 21 points.
