"Bayern Munich faced their Bavarian neighbours FC Augsburg away at the WWK Arena on Matchday 2 of the 2025/26 Bundesliga season. Following the midweek game at SV Wehen Wiesbaden where the team's mistakes proved costly, resulting in two goals conceded, and amidst the transfer saga, there are far fewer questions of the team's games and more of whom they're bringing to bridge the deficits."
"The Augsburg game temporarily (and only partly), brought the attention back to the team's performance. When asked about his thoughts on the game, captain Manuel Neuer primarily expressed his concerns about having conceded twice and about the team's need to convert their chances. "Of course conceding twice is annoying, but I thought we created a lot of chances [to be winning comfortably]," he said, per @iMiaSanMia."
""We did a good job creating the chances, but we missed a lot, just like against Wiesbaden," he said, referencing to the midweek Pokal fixture wherein Bayern maintained a major majority of the position and created multiple chances and yet could not capitalise on them, only making 22 shots of which only 15 were on-target. The fixture against Leipzig however, featured a very different level of Bayern performances, to which the captain brought attention -"
Bayern Munich beat FC Augsburg 3-2 at the WWK Arena on Matchday 2 of the 2025/26 Bundesliga season. The team conceded twice but created numerous chances, yet conversion remained a problem. Midweek errors at SV Wehen Wiesbaden had previously led to two conceded goals and a failure to capitalise despite creating many opportunities, producing 22 shots with 15 on target. A recent 6-0 win over Leipzig contrasted with the more wasteful outings. Transfer activity, including loan talks with Chelsea over Nicolas Jackson, dominated off-field attention. Plans for the upcoming international break include keeping fit, watching matches, and private family time.
