It is very difficult for Bayern to go four games in a row without winning. Three carried the new project of Vincent Kompany, who received Stuttgart at Südderby. It cost the Bavarians much more than the scoreboard says to beat their southern German rival before visiting Barcelona in the Champions League.
The 4-0 was forged in a second half in which the locals did not let go of their prey when they had it. Stuttgart’s resistance lasted almost an hour. The team of Sebastian Hoeness, nephew of the legend and former president of Bayern, Uli Hoeness, was making life difficult for his uncle’s team. But in the final stretch the Bavarian giant was relentless.
Half hour gale
The 4-0 was forged in a second half in which the Bavarians were relentless
Harry Kane is largely to blame for Bayern continuing to lead the Bundesliga. The English striker signed a hat trick in 24 minutes and sharpened his aim ahead of his visit to Montjuïc next Wednesday. Bayern’s scorer already has 13 goals this season.
On the 9th he opened the scoring with a low and hard shot, with his right foot, from 28 meters, in which Nübel was able to do more. And just four minutes later he took advantage, at the second time, of an assist from Müller with a backheel. He was about to score the third in the 67th minute when he was able to control a Davies cross in the area. He tried to put the shot into the corner and it just barely went high.
In 23 minutes
The Englishman is on a roll and it is his third hat-trick in just over two months of the course
But Kane did not go home with the desire and took out his thorn with ten minutes left by taking advantage of a rebound in the area opportunistically. It is the third triplet in just over two months of the course.
If the Englishman arrives on a roll, Pavlovic had to retire in the early stages of the match after a bad fall in which he damaged his collarbone and right shoulder. The midfielder, who has started in 9 of the 11 games this season, is a serious doubt and could be added to other key pieces who are out such as Musiala (hip) or Upamecano.
With the score at 2-0, in the 68th minute, Kompany already turned his sights towards Barcelona’s move this Wednesday when he removed Gnabry, Olise and Guerreiro from the field in one fell swoop. Coman, one of those who came in as a refresher, made the fourth almost with the time up.
