Bayern Edge Augsburg 3-2 After Late Scare as Kompany Urges Calm

Kompany cites a short preparation to explain the jittery finish.

Overview

  • Serge Gnabry, Luis Díaz and Michael Olise put Bayern 3-0 up before Augsburg hit back through Kristijan Jakić and Mert Kömür at the WWK Arena.
  • The champions have opened the Bundesliga with two wins and nine goals, yet they have conceded twice late in back‑to‑back matches after a midweek cup scare.
  • Kompany said Bayern "missed many chances" and asked for perspective, noting the team’s limited offseason and heavy early schedule.
  • Augsburg’s Robin Fellhauer was stretchered off after a clash of heads with Sacha Boey; Sandro Wagner said the defender sustained a serious concussion and should be out for two to three weeks, adding an apology was later made.
  • Bayern are in talks to take Chelsea forward Nicolas Jackson on loan, with Christoph Freund calling himself hopeful as reporting describes negotiations as complicated and not yet concluded.
