Bayern Munich is in a commendable position on the Bundesliga standings this season. With an impressive record of nine wins and two draws in eleven matches, they trail only behind league leaders Bayern Leverkusen, with a mere 2-point difference. Xabier Alonso’s team has won all eleven games and held a 1-1 Draw with the Defending Champions. The ex-Liverpool, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich star weaves a spell of footballing brilliance, empowering talented individuals who seamlessly fit into his dynamic tactics, forming a cohesive unit like assembling intricate puzzle pieces. The infused rivalry between both top teams promises to be the ‘Highlight of the season’ as both teams vie for Bundesliga glory.
Thomas Tuchel, who took over the coaching role from Julian Nagelsmann last season at Bayern Munich, has exhibited a brand of football that has enthralled fans. Having only been defeated on two occasions this season – a 3-0 defeat to Leipzig in the DFL Super Cup and a 2-1 knockout defeat to FC Saarbrucken in the DFB Cup second round, the Bavarians are not taking any chances of further losses. Tuchel’s tactical prowess has been complemented by summer signings, with England captain – Harry Kane being the standout signing. Despite injuries to crucial players such as Tom Hülsmann (Hamstring injury), Matthijs de Ligt (Inner knee ligament tear), Tarek Buchmann (Torn muscle bundle), and Jamal Musiala (Hamstring injury), Bayern has maintained its winning momentum.
Jamal Musiala has been a crucial asset for Bayern. The 20-year-old attacker finished second in the Golden Boy awards behind Real Madrid’s Jude Bellingham after registering 16 goals and 16 assists last season. He is currently in individual training after recovering from a muscle injury. His contribution, coupled with Mathys Tel’s (also a Golden Boy finalist), adds depth to Bayern’s attacking prowess.
Harry Kane’s impact in recent games has been nothing short of sensational. The English striker has already netted 21 goals and provided seven assists in just 16 appearances. His two goals against FC Heidenheim 1846 in Bayern’s 4-2 last victory took him past Robert Lewandowski’s record of 16 goals in 11 matches in 2019. Kane’s stellar form earned him the Player of the Month for October, and he shows no signs of slowing down, already scoring seven goals in November, which includes 3 Hat-tricks. The Three Lions star is England and Spurs’ all-time leading scorer and will want to make more history during his time in the Bundesliga. Harry Kane now stands a chance and is past halfway at triggering a €25k bonus in his contract if he reaches the 40-goal mark in all competitions. Having transferred from Tottenham to Bayern this summer, Kane has already surpassed the goal tally of last season’s Bundesliga joint-top scorers, Christopher Nkunku and Niclas Fullkrug, both finished with 16 goals each.
While still on the international break, several Bayern players showcased their skills with their national teams. Amongst them, Harry Kane continued his scoring form with a goal in England’s 2-0 victory against Malta. The Englishmen already secured a spot in EURO 2024. Kingsley Coman scored a brace in France’s 14-0 rout of Gibraltar, while Minjae Kim and South Korea won their opening qualifying match for the 2026 World. Konrad Laimer scored the opener for Austria in a 2-0 victory in Estonia. Frans Krätzig and Aleksandar Pavlović celebrated a late win 1-0 win over Romania with the Germany U20 team.
Mathys Tel and the French U21 side suffered their first defeat in a 2-0 victory away to Austra in an EURO 2025 qualification match. Leroy Sane, Joshua Kimmich, Serge Gnabry, Leon Goretzka, and Thomas Müller unfortunately faced a 3-2 defeat in a friendly against Turkey in Berlin.
As Bayern Munich gears up for the next set of fixtures, the fans eagerly anticipate the continued success of their team in both domestic and European competitions. The blend of seasoned stars and emerging talents bodes well for a thrilling season ahead.
