Bavarian Loan Works: Bayern Munich loanee Jonathan Asp Jensen in on fire

As the season continues to roll on, a few Bayern loanees started their European campaigns this week. We also saw a few goals scored — including two from Palhinha — and even an assist from a keeper! See

Nübel helped Stuttgart — on offense and defense — start their Europa League campaign with a win. He did not record a save in the match Cetta Vigo and allowed one late goal to make the last few minutes nervous. Fortunately they were already up 2-0, partially thanks to a Nübel assist on the opening goal five minutes after halftime. Stuttgart held on to win 2-1.

Stuttgart travelled to Köln on Sunday. Stuttgart won 2-1 again, but this match went completely differently. Nübel faced six shots on goal and saved five of them, overcoming a 4th-minute goal and saving the rest of the shots that he faced. He also completed 89% of his passes on the day.
