Bayern Munich attacker Serge Gnabry knew that his team needed to show some kind of response after losing to FC Augsburg two weeks ago and then suffering a 2-2 draw with Hamburger SV last weekend.
Against Hoffenheim, who was sitting in third place entering the match day, Bayern Munich was able to show it was still the Bundesliga’s top dog.
The Bavarians put together a 5-1 win and shut down a very pesky (and talented) Hoffenheim team that was much better than the final score line would indicate.
“We always
want to make a statement. Of course the points we dropped hurt, but the season is long with many ups and downs. We always want to win, and so far it’s looking good,” Gnabry said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
This is a step back in the right direction for Bayern Munich, who desperately needed a win and some positive vibes. Now, the Bavarians can shift focus toward another competition as they will face RB Leipzig on Wednesday in the Champions League.
