"Bayern Munich hosted Werder Bremen and completely dominated the visitors. From the outset it was very clear that Vincent Kompany had a game plan to relentlessly attack Werder Bremen and not let up. The Bavarians crushed Werder Bremen 4-0 in a game that was never close. There is much to talk about, so let's get to it. Here are some quick hitters on the match: The lineup was pretty standard with the exception of the central midfield. Joshua Kimmich was out of the XI with an illness, so Tom Bischof and Leon Goretzka got the nod. Aleksandar Pavlović, who was coming off of a few strong showings, was likely rested ahead of the Champions League showdown with Pafos on Tuesday."
" Not a fashionista here, but the Oktoberfest kits looked sharp. Werder Bremen did not go hard after the center-backs while pressing, but were super-aggressive pressing the central midfield and outside players early in the match. Just three minutes into the game, Kane was set up really nicely and just hooked his left-footed attempt from the left side way wide. That was uncharacteristic from Kane this season. 90 seconds later, Kane made a hard-charging run into the box and Michael Olise slid him an excellent pass, but Kane fired his attempt into Werder Bremen goalkeeper Karl Hein. In the 7th minute, Luis Díaz had a header attempt go wide, but the Bavarians were swarming and not giving Werder Bremen any room to do anything. Kane also had a bad turnover in the build-up, which led to what could have been a decent opportunity. That might have been his lone mistake of the match. Goretzka had a horrendous, errant pass which gave Werder Bremen a corner, which probably made his legions of haters throw up the "Bat Signal." For as dominant as Bayern Munich was in the early going, there was a bit of sloppiness, inefficiency, and mistakes built in. The sloppiness was contagious, but Werder Bremen was not able to take advantage of it. Even with not being overly sharp, Baye"
Bayern Munich produced a comprehensive 4-0 win over Werder Bremen, controlling the match from the start with a high-intensity attacking plan. Vincent Kompany set a relentless tone that limited Bremen's chances and forced errors. Joshua Kimmich missed the match through illness, so Tom Bischof and Leon Goretzka started in central midfield while Aleksandar Pavlović was rested ahead of a Champions League fixture. Bremen pressed aggressively in midfield early but failed to exploit Bayern’s intermittent sloppiness. Harry Kane had several early chances but also a turnover; Bayern’s pressure and finishing ensured a comfortable victory.
