FC Bayern ended its recent slump with an impressive offensive display. In a 6-1 rout of RB Leipzig, the Munich side was in top form. The attacking trio of Luis Díaz, Harry Kane, and Michael Olise, in particular, was virtually unstoppable for the Saxons. Just how dominant the three offensive stars were is also evident from their exceptional performance ratings.
After two draws against FC Augsburg and Viking Stavanger, Vincent Kompany’s team had recently faced criticism. Against Leipzig, Bayern delivered the perfect response.
The record champions were already comfortably ahead 3-0 at halftime. Even after the break, the Munich side didn’t let up and continued to extend their lead.
The standout player of the evening was Luis Díaz. The Colombian scored three goals and also set up Aleksandar Pavlovic’s goal that made it 2-0. For his stellar performance, the winger received an outstanding rating—an FCBinside score of 1.
But his two attacking partners also put in impressive performances. Harry Kane, who played his 100th Bundesliga match for FC Bayern against Leipzig, was awarded the top grade.
The Englishman scored a goal himself and was also involved in several dangerous attacks. Time and again, he dropped back into midfield and, with his vision, orchestrated Munich’s offensive play.
Michael Olise also received a grade of 1. The Frenchman scored in the 34th minute to make it 3-0 and was also involved in Bayern’s sixth goal.
The performances by Díaz and Olise were particularly noteworthy. Both had recently faced criticism. Olise made negative headlines earlier in the week after being sent off against Viking Stavanger. Against Leipzig, the 24-year-old once again demonstrated his soccering class.
Díaz, too, looked like a different player after some recent inconsistent performances and proved his immense goal-scoring threat with his hat trick.
For coach Vincent Kompany, the performance of his attacking trio should provide important insights ahead of the upcoming matches.
The next tough test in the Champions League comes as early as Wednesday against Arsenal. However, Bayern will have to do without Olise against the Londoners. The Frenchman is suspended following his red card.
This makes it all the more important for Kane and Díaz to confirm their strong form on the international stage as well.
In any case, the performance against Leipzig impressively demonstrated the offensive potential within the German record champions’ roster.
