Overview

• Bayern won 4-1 at the PreZero Arena to move to 12 points from four league matches.
• Kane opened the scoring on 44 minutes from a rehearsed corner delivered by 17-year-old Lennart Karl, then converted two second-half penalties confirmed after VAR reviews.
• Vincent Kompany made five changes after the midweek Champions League win, handing first Bundesliga starts to Karl and loanee Nicolas Jackson, with Josip Stanišić out injured.
• Hoffenheim pressed early and hit the post through Fisnik Asllani following a Manuel Neuer error, before Vladimir Coufal’s late free-kick deflected in off Joshua Kimmich for a consolation.
• Serge Gnabry added Bayern’s fourth in stoppage time, and defender Kim Min-jae was substituted in the second half after a heavy shift.
