"Teenager Karl received possession midway into Brugge's half before dancing past two players and darting forward to bend into the top-left corner for his first goal on his maiden start in the competition. In doing so, Karl became Bayern's youngest goalscorer in the Champions League and also the youngest German scorer in the competition, aged only 17 years and 242 days."
"Laimer played another part in the third goal, offloading for Luis Diaz to power inside before crashing a thunderous effort past Nordin Jackers and in via the help of the crossbar 11 minutes before half-time. With an imposing lead, Kompany took the chance to rest key talisman Kane, and his replacement was soon denied as Jackers made a smart save against Nicolas Jackson."
Lennart Karl opened the scoring with a brilliant fifth-minute goal on his maiden Champions League start, becoming Bayern's youngest scorer in the competition and the youngest German scorer at 17 years and 242 days. Harry Kane added a quick second with a simple tap-in after Konrad Laimer's smart work. Laimer then assisted Luis Diaz for a thunderous third that hit the crossbar before halftime. Nicolas Jackson sealed the 4-0 victory after pouncing on a rebound from Laimer's 79th-minute effort. Vincent Kompany celebrated a contract extension, Manuel Neuer moved into fifth in Champions League appearances, and Bayern improved their Belgian record to 6–0 (16–1 aggregate).
