Bayern’s Early Pressure
Bayern began the match with their usual high-intensity style, putting Schalke under pressure from the start. Thomas Muller, in particular, was causing problems for Schalke’s defense, with a couple of early chances that almost found the back of the net. However, Schalke’s goalkeeper, Scheffolo, was on top form, keeping Bayern at bay.
Joshua Kimmich Steps Up
Bayern were eventually awarded a penalty after Musiala was obstructed in the box. Joshua Kimmich stepped up to take the spot-kick, and he made no mistake in converting it, doubling Bayern’s lead.
Serge Gnabry Takes Control
Serge Gnabry was once again in fantastic form for Bayern, with two goals to his name. He first scored in the 50th minute, dodging a Schalke defender before firing a creeping ground shot into the net. He then scored his second in the 80th minute, after being gifted the ball by defender Yoshida. Gnabry pounced on the opportunity and skillfully put the ball past the goalkeeper to score his second of the match.
Bayern’s Hexagon
Matthijs Tell and Naseer Mazraoui also got on the scoresheet for Bayern, with goals in the 29th and 93rd minutes, respectively. It was a dominant performance from the Bavarians, who showed their class and quality throughout the match.
Schalke’s Struggles
Schalke, on the other hand, had a day to forget. They struggled to keep up with Bayern’s high tempo and quality, and they were thoroughly outplayed throughout the match. They did have a couple of chances to score, but they were unable to convert them into goals.
Final Thoughts
Overall, it was a dominant performance from Bayern Munich, who look set to win yet another Bundesliga title. The Bavarians have been in imperious form for several weeks now, and their performances have been nothing short of exceptional.
