Bayern Munich Begin Bundesliga Defence With Six-goal Thrashing Of RB Leipzig
Franz Beckenbauer Supercup: Bayern Munich kicked off the 2025/26 Bundesliga season in emphatic style on Friday night, dismantling RB Leipzig 6-0 at the Allianz Arena. Harry Kane stole the spotlight with a clinical second-half hat-trick, while Michael Olise and new signing Luis Díaz also got on the scoresheet in a statement win for the reigning champions.
Vincent Kompany stuck with the same starting XI that secured the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup last weekend, and his decision paid off immediately. Bayern dominated from the outset, with Olise opening the scoring in the 27th minute, capitalizing on a loose ball in the box after slick buildup play.
Díaz, making his Bundesliga debut, doubled the lead just five minutes later. The Colombian winger latched onto a Serge Gnabry layoff and rifled a shot in off the crossbar. Olise added his second and Bayern’s third before the break, cutting inside and coolly finishing into the bottom corner after more sharp link-up play.
