Overview

  • Michael Olise struck in the 27th and 44th minutes while Luis Díaz scored on his Bundesliga debut in the 32nd and supplied two assists.
  • Harry Kane opened his account in the 64th minute before adding goals in the 74th and 78th to complete a 14-minute second-half treble.
  • Leipzig briefly threatened after halftime, but a strike by Antonio Nusa was overturned when VAR found Castello Lukeba had taken the preceding free kick with the ball still rolling.
  • Bayern maintained control even after coach Vincent Kompany made four substitutions in the 68th minute, continuing to add to the scoreline.
  • Kane, Olise and Díaz—each signed from the Premier League in recent seasons—led the statement win, with Kane now on seven Bundesliga hat-tricks since his 2023 arrival.
