"Last year on this day Bayern Munich faced RB Salzburg in a friendly following the winter break. What ensued was a thumping 6-0 victory by dint of an exceptional Thomas Muller performance. This year, there may be no Muller, but the fixture is back and both sides look promising. A fantastic second-half performance with key contributions from Bayern's controversial figure Lennart Karl resulted in a 5-0 win this year for the Bavarians."
"The 2025 team was overwhelmingly dominant with key players like Olise, Kane and Sane pulling their weight. There was a strong theme there individual brilliance. Every single player had an excellent outing notably Thomas Muller and Eric Dier, both of whom scored spectacular goals. This year, and particularly the first half, featured a squad that was certainly the better one, but could not put up anything worth speaking of."
Bayern Munich beat RB Salzburg 5-0 this year following a winter-break friendly, repeating a dominant result after last year's 6-0 win. The second half produced a dramatic turnaround driven by substitutions and standout contributions from Lennart Karl and other individual performers. Salzburg were overrun by Bayern's press and pace but showed slight improvement compared with the previous year. The 2025 Bayern displayed overwhelming dominance built on individual brilliance from players such as Olise, Kane, Sane, Thomas Muller and Eric Dier. The 2026 squad started slowly, struggled to create chances in the first half, and then asserted control after tactical changes.
