When Nicolas Jackson slotted home in the 79th minute of Bayern’s emphatic 4-1 Bundesliga win over Borussia Mönchengladbach on Friday, the score was already 3-0. That did not stop Jackson or his Bayern teammates for hunting for more — Jamal Musiala had a near miss just moments prior — and they were finally rewarded after Lennart Karl sent in a driven low cross from inside the box.
For Bayern, it’s business as usual. Head coach Vincent Kompany has often spoken of maintaining the hunger even after building
an early lead, whether it’s within games or in the league overall. And Jackson’s goal has set a new high mark for the German Rekordmeister, as captured by @iMiaSanMia:
Nicolas Jackson’s goal was Bayern’s 27th of the season in the final 15 minutes of play, a new club record
Gladbach will be glad to have gotten one back though: 17-year-old Wael Mohya pounced in the 89th minute to deny the Bavarians a clean sheet.
One thing’s for sure. If a game is winding down against Bayern Munich, don’t count on the scoreline staying the same.
