Bayern Munich demolished Hoffenheim 4-1 thanks to a hat-trick by Harry Kane and a late goal by Serge Gnabry. The win ensures that the Bavarians stay unbeaten in all competitions so far this season. The large winning margin also confirmed a new record has been set in the Bundesliga:
Bayern’s goalscoring exploits have seen them average 4.5 goals per game in the league,
and in all competitions, they have scored 26 goals in just seven games for an average of 3.7 goals per game. In addition to this record, Kane has now registered 16 G+A at this point in the season (13 goals and three assists); the prolific Englishman has also registered his ninth Bundesliga hat-trick since joining in 2023.
When Bayern Munich traveled to Sinsheim on a short week after taking down Chelsea FC in the Champions League, it was never going to be easy.
Hoffenheim is well-coached, motivated, and playing with a real fire. For a weary Bayern Munich side, that meant trouble, but Vincent Kompany heavily rotated his men and while it was not always dominant or even pretty, the Bavarians showed their grit once again in a 4-1 win.
