"Bayern Munich extended their perfect start to the season with a commanding 5-1 victory over Cypriot side Pafos on Tuesday. Vincent Kompany's side got off to an electric start at Alphamega Stadium, racing away to a two-goal lead inside the opening 20 minutes. After seeing an acrobatic bicycle kick denied by the post just minutes earlier, Harry Kane broke the deadlock in the 15th minute, finishing clinically from a tight angle at the edge of the six-yard box following a deft pass from Michael Olise."
"Raphael Guerreiro doubled Bayern's lead just five minutes later, firing past Neofytos Michael from inside the box after a clever one-two play with Nicolas Jackson. The Senegalese then added a goal of his own 11 minutes later, combining neatly with the fleet-footed Olise to fire home, before Kane scored again from a tight angle on the left side of the six-yard box to complete his double."
"The Bavarians appeared to be in full control, but an event-laden first half ended with a moment of brilliance from Pafos' Mislav Orsic, who curled a stunning 25-yard strike into the top corner, past a helpless Manuel Neuer. But any hopes of a Pafos comeback were extinguished midway through the second half as Olise added a goal of his own after Michael parried a Jackson shot straight into the Frenchman's path."

Jackson and Serge Gnabry struck the post in stoppage time as Bayern closed out a comfortable road victory.
