Bayern, the improbable setback

The Bavarian ogre has struck again. Although trailing 0-2 from the first minutes of play against Friborg this Saturday, Bayern masterfully turned the tide to win 6-2 in the 11e act of the German championship.

Past Suzuki’s goals (12e) and Manzambi (17e), the Munich residents let loose, coming back to the level before the break thanks to Karl (22e) and Olise (45e+2). In the second period, the visitors finally lost their footing, punished by Upamecano (55e), Kane (60e), Jackson (78e) and Olise for the double (84e).

While waiting for the Leipzig match against Werder on Sunday, Bayern is eight lengths ahead of its first pursuer – Leverkusen, who at the same time fell to Wolfsburg (1-3). Held in check by Stuttgart (3-3), Dortmund has nine units on its side. Like the aforementioned VfB and RB.
