At the Allianz Arena on Saturday afternoon, Bayern Munich put on an incredible display to defeat Bayer Leverkusen 3-0, extending their winning streak to 15 games. 

The first goal for the home team came from Serge Gnabry, who made his 250th appearance in the Bundesliga.

Before Loic Bade turned into his own net, Nicolas Jackson scored his first Bundesliga goal of the season, giving Bayern a 3-0 advantage at halftime. The 37-game winning streak for Bayer Leverkusen away from home ended with this loss.

Match report for Bayern Munich vs. Bayer Leverkusen


Bayern's innate flair was unaffected by Vincent Kompany's seven changes to the team, as they controlled from the start.

Mark Flakken stopped Karl's curling attempt at the goal. After a fantastic play, the young player shot from the edge of the box, narrowly missing, demonstrating his growing interest in the game.

Karl was involved once more two minutes later. He swung a wonderful cross into the box this time, and Leon Goretzka got up to meet it but was unable to keep his shot on goal.

Serge Gnabry, who scored his fourth goal in the Bundesliga, gave Bayern the lead in the 24th minute. Gnabry was let through on goal by Tom Bischof's wonderful pass; the German winger used his speed to slip past Flakken.

Another superb cross from Karl found its way into the area, but Nicolas Jackson was unable to reach the ball's toe. Shortly after, Jackson headed in a fantastic cross from Konrad Laimer to score his first Bundesliga goal of the year.

The on-loan Chelsea striker believed he had scored his second goal of the day, but it was correctly disallowed for offside. Karl came quite close to scoring when he attempted a left-footed effort from the box's edge, but it missed the mark.

Bayern scored its third goal shortly before halftime. Attempting to clear the danger, Loic Bade diverted a low cross from Raphael Guerreiro's left into his own net.

Jackson had a chance to score Bayern's second goal of the evening in the second half, but he headed it over the crossbar.

Leverkusen attempted to re-enter the game after enjoying a lot of midfield control, but Bayern was not in the mood to let them generate opportunities.

Guerreiro was given a fantastic pass by Karl, but his attempt missed the mark.

Kompany added Diaz, Kane, and Olise off the bench at 3-0, highlighting the squad's strength and depth.

Sacha Boey was unable to keep his shot on aim, so Olise tees him off by cutting inside from the right.

The Bavarian powerhouses made sure they got all three points by keeping possession.

BAYERN MUNICH HELD: VUSKOVIC AND VIEIRA STUN KOMPANY IN A WILD 2-2 HAMBURG DRAW

Vincent Kompany’s rotation is hurting Bayern

Bayern Munich dropped points again in the Bundesliga, settling for a 2-2 draw against Hamburg up north. Harry Kane and Luis Diaz both found the net for Bayern, who took the lead after Fabio Vieira had put Hamburg ahead with a first-half penalty. But Luka Vuskovic, who was everywhere for the hosts, powered in a header to snatch a well-earned point in a wild game at Volksparkstadion.

Early on, Bayern tried to quiet down the home crowd and pushed hard for the first goal. Still, it was Hamburg who struck first. About 30 minutes in, Nicolai Remberg beat Joshua Kimmich to a loose ball and drew a foul from the German midfielder. Fabio Vieira, on loan from Arsenal, coolly slotted the penalty past Manuel Neuer and into the bottom corner.

Bayern didn’t waste much time. Within ten minutes, Serge Gnabry slipped behind the defence and whipped in a cross. Kimmich’s awkward shot landed at Kane’s feet, and the England captain smashed it home. Kompany threw on Luis Diaz at halftime, and it paid off instantly. Diaz finished off a slick pass from Olise less than a minute after coming on.

Hamburg weren't rattled, though. Just eight minutes into the second half, Vuskovic muscled past Alphonso Davies and hammered in a header from William Mikelbrencis’ cross. Hamburg almost took the lead when Neuer fluffed a clearance, leaving Vieira with an open goal, but Davies raced back to clear it off the line. Bayern pushed for a winner and shouted for a couple of penalties, but the referee wasn’t having it. In the end, both sides walked away with a point.

Standout player? Luka Vuskovic, no question. The Croatian centre-back, on loan from Tottenham, gave Hamburg steel at the back and kept Kane pretty quiet. His equaliser—already his fourth of the season—showed a hunger and skill Spurs have been missing lately.

On the flip side, Vincent Kompany has to take some heat. The Bayern boss did well bringing on Diaz, but you wonder if starting him would’ve made the difference. Bayern had the lead but couldn’t finish the job, and Hamburg deserved their share of the spoils.

HARRY KANE REVEALS HIS "FAVORITE GERMAN DISH" IS ACTUALLY A REWARD FOR SCORING

It’s a ritual! Harry Kane reveals how local chef Stefan Kastner delivers free veal schnitzels for every goal he scores for Bayern.

Harry Kane gets free dinners for every Bayern Munich goal

Every time Harry Kane scores for Bayern Munich, he gets a free dinner—no joke. There’s this local pub owner who drops off a schnitzel for every goal Kane bangs in for the German champs.

The man behind this tradition? Stefan Kastner, chef and superfan, runs the Buchenhain Forest Inn. He doesn’t just send the food—he actually drives out himself to Kane’s place and hands it over. Kastner’s from Baierbrunn, a suburb just outside Munich, and he swears his schnitzels give Kane that extra push on the pitch.

Kane, by the way, calls these deliveries a “ritual”. He even lets Kastner—everyone calls him the “Schnitzel Guy”—swing by past security whenever he’s due for a drop-off. With the way Kane’s scoring, that’s happening a lot.

Funny thing, though—Kane’s strict about his diet. No chips, ever. Kastner says, “At first, I just did it as a fan. Now, it’s a real tradition. I’ve been at this for over a year, and I’d say we’re up to 50 or 60 schnitzels so far. I don’t deliver one after every single goal. I wait until he’s scored a couple, then I drive over, usually around six in the evening. Lately, I wait for two goals before making the trip. Then I bring a veal schnitzel with roasted potatoes, plus another with potato salad.”

When the local paper TZ ran the story, Kane owned up—he loves schnitzels. “It’s turned into a ritual. It’s lovely. Honestly, it’s probably my favourite dish in Germany. Some people say it’s Austrian or Bavarian, but either way, it’s my top pick since moving here.”

He’s quick to admit he doesn’t eat every single one. “They get delivered, and my family or whoever’s at the house digs in. It helps us feel like we’re part of the community,” he says.

“And really, this was Stefan’s idea. I doubt he thought I’d score this many goals. But, yeah, it’s just a good story. It feels right.”
