"Bayern got the early lead through a lovely move on the left flank in the fifth minute. Josip Stanisic played a precise through pass to find the run of Luis Diaz. The Colombian had squared the ball after reaching the byline to fine Michael Olise, but Kilian Fischer ended up bundling the ball into his own net as he tried to stop Olise from getting the final touch."
"Bayern were deservedly ahead, but the visitors didn't take long to respond to the early setback. Wolfsburg stitched a fast move in the attack to equalise in the 13th minute. A slip from Konrad Laimer allowed Lovro Majer to play a through pass to find the run of Dzenan Pejcinovic in the box. The German forward made no mistake in putting the ball past Manuel Neuer."
"After conceding the equalizer, Die Roten got hold of possession and didn't allow Wolfsburg to create chances. The visitors also sat deep, giving Bayern very little space in the final third. Michael Olise came up with a superb cross to break Die Roten's defense by delivering a strong cross at the far post. Diaz managed to beat his marker and head the goal past the goalkeeper to restore Bayern's lead."
Bayern Munich opened the second half of the season with a commanding home performance, scoring eight goals against Wolfsburg. Joshua Kimmich was absent with an ankle injury, prompting Vincent Kompany to pair Aleksandar Pavlovic and Tom Bischof in midfield, while Lennart Karl started behind Harry Kane. Bayern created early chances and took the lead via a move down the left that resulted in an own goal. Wolfsburg equalised after a Konrad Laimer slip, but Bayern reclaimed the lead when Michael Olise delivered a cross and Luis Diaz headed home. Bayern dominated possession and kept Wolfsburg largely pinned back through to half-time.
