Summertime football friendlies serve as crucial preparation for the upcoming competitive season. However, Bayern Munich’s first pre-season match against Rottach-Egern raises questions about the value of the experience gained from a lopsided 27-0 victory.
Played at their picturesque camp in Tegernsee, Bayern Munich dominated the match from the start. Jamal Musiala opened the scoring just three minutes into the game, followed by a goal from Serge Gnabry a minute later. By the 13th minute, the score was already 5-0, with Musiala and Gnabry both securing braces and Alphonso Davies adding a goal on the eighth minute. The first half ended with a staggering scoreline of 18-0, with five goals from Mathys Tel and Musiala, along with a hat-trick from Gnabry. Konrad Laimer, Noussair Mazraoui, Dayot Upamecano, and Leroy Sané also contributed to the onslaught.
In the second half, Bayern Munich introduced a new lineup, but there was no reprieve for their non-league opponents. Marcel Sabitzer scored five goals between the 50th and 73rd minutes, and Raphaël Guerreiro, Ryan Gravenberch, Kingsley Coman, and Sadio Mané also got on the scoresheet, bringing the final score to an astounding 27-0. This result surpassed their previous victories against the same opponents in 2018 (20-2) and 2019 (23-0).
Looking ahead, Bayern Munich is set to face a tougher challenge against treble-winning Manchester City in Japan on July 26. They also have pre-season fixtures against Liverpool in Singapore and Monaco.
Bayern’s official website reported the presence of their new signing, South Korean defender Kim Min-jae, who recently joined from Napoli and signed a five-year contract. While the transfer fee was undisclosed, reports suggest Bayern paid a release clause of €50m (£43m) for the player. Kim expressed his excitement about joining Bayern, stating that the club’s interest in him was evident from the start. His goals are to play many games and win numerous trophies with the German giants.
Overall, Bayern Munich’s dominant victory highlights their prowess as they gear up for the new season. While the match against Rottach-Egern provided a confidence boost, the upcoming challenges against top-tier teams will truly test their abilities.
