The 2022–23 Bundesliga season for Bayern Munich got off to the ideal start. In front of a packed house at the Deutsche Bank Arena, t

the competitiveness of the Bundesliga is once again being questioned.

Bayern’s dominance, in fact, was apparent within minutes of the game. Within five minutes, Joshua Kimmich opened the scoring with a brilliant freekick that,
according to the AWS stats, makers only had a 4% goalscoring probability.
A rout was inevitable after that goal.
Bayern led 5-0 at the break thanks to goals from Benjamin Pavard (11′),
Sadio Mané (29′), Jamal Musiala (35′),
and Serge Gnabry (43′). Since the second half had no significance,
head coach Julian Nagelsmann was able to introduce highly anticipated player Mathys Tel for the last few minutes of play.
The 2022–23 Bundesliga season for Bayern Munich got off to the ideal start. In front of a packed house at the Deutsche Bank Arena,

In the opening 45 minutes of last Saturday’s DFL Supercup match against Leipzig, Bayern also dominated. In that game,
Leipzig came close to mounting a comeback but fell short in the last five minutes to level.
The result today and the score at halftime in Leipzig will add fuel to the fire for those who are criticising the Bundesliga‘s level of competition. Indeed, Bayern seems unbeatable this season despite or perhaps because of the loss of Robert Lewandowski.
The first five goals were scored by five different players,
and Musiala was the only one to score twice. The Gnabry and Mané attack has put an end to those who believed the Polish striker could not be replaced. The Bundesliga title is virtually incidental given that the Rekordmeister
has assembled a team that will contend for the Champions League and appears more dangerous than ever.
“Bayern had every right to win, according to Oliver Glasner, the head coach of Eintracht Frankfurt. “After giving up two goals so quickly,
we lost our composure. Bayern made the most of the room we granted them. We were simply unable to keep up with their pace.
Now we have a chance to do better on Wednesday against Real Madrid.”
“Oliver Glasner, the head coach of Eintracht Frankfurt,
declared after the game that Bayern had earned their victory. “After giving up two goals so quickly, we lost our cool. Bayern made good use of the room we gave them. Their pace simply overpowered us. Now we have a chance to do better on Wednesday when we play Real Madrid.”
But there is a downside to such power. The Bundesliga has been putting in a lot of effort to gain more awareness abroad.
Oliver Kahn, the CEO of Bayern, and Andreas Jung, a member of the executive board, have recently asked other German teams to travel abroad to promote the league.
However, this kind of strength has a drawback. The Bundesliga has been working hard to increase its visibility internationally.
