Four minutes later, Tah let loose with a thundering header from close-range, but Frederik Rønnow made a big stop.
Union Berlin really had nothing to offer Bayern Munich offensively.
In the 50th and 51st minutes, Neuer made two sensational saves to keep Union Berlin off the scoreboard.
Bayern Munich was just slicing and dicing Union Berlin in every way.
Olise and Bischof worked another combination just three minutes later, which Olise finished with another wonderful shot.
Okay, I don’t love the Oktoberfest kits. They look like some kind war going on in outer space.
Four minutes later, Tah let loose with a thundering header from close-range, but Frederik Rønnow made a big stop.
Luis Díaz’s tough luck continued as he had a goal waved off due to an offside.
Man, in the 32nd minute, Neuer made a long run out to slide tackle a ball away that was being chased down by a Union Berlin player. That surely made some fans gasp, but the old guy (still younger than me!) still has it.
Union Berlin really had nothing to offer Bayern Munich offensively. The Iron Ones just could not solve the swarming Bavarians defense.
Tah and Upamecano were on-point and rock solid in the center of the defense.
Tom Rothe conceded a penalty kick after taking down Olise in the box. Kane stepped up and hit the PK in the 39th minute to make it 2-0, which had to feel like 200-0 to Union Berlin.
Rani Khedira took Musiala down hard in the 42nd minute, which would turn out to be a very bad move. Sure, Khedira was following the plan most teams use to try and get Musiala off his game, but the ensuing free kicker worked its way around to Olise, who hit a tremendous shot for a 3-0 lead. There was no coming back from that for the Iron Ones.
Union Berlin had a lot of trouble finding ways to get forward.
Despite the lopsided scoreline, Union Berlin center-back Leopold Querfeld was turning in a very solid effort (it sounds crazy, but the scenes around him were wild). Querfeld, though, did have a boner on Ismael Saibari’s goal later in the game as he gave the Moroccan way too much rook to work with.
In the 50th and 51st minutes, Neuer made two sensational saves to keep Union Berlin off the scoreboard. A rested and healthy Neuer looks like a very dangerous Neuer.
In the 54 minute, Olise lofted in a beautiful diagonal ball, which Kane ran directly into for a fantastic header goal to make it 4-0. What…a…play!
Bayern Munich was just slicing and dicing Union Berlin in every way.
Diaz, however, stayed ice cold as he had a good look, but hit a relatively weak shot on the ground, right at Rønnow.
Saibari got into the act and scored Bayern Munich’s 5th goal on a pretty outstanding individual effort. Everything was working for the Bavarians. Davies picked up his second assist of the day on the play.
Three minutes later, Tom Bischof sent in a beautiful long ball to a streaking Olise, who went into a 1v1 with the GK. Olise clanged his finish off the post and made it 6-0. Another highlight reel worthy play on a day full of them. Bischof’s pass was perfection.
Olise and Bischof worked another combination just three minutes later, which Olise finished with another wonderful shot.
Olise had a hatrick and an assist in yet another dominant effort from the French winger.
Bischof made a very good impression after coming on as a sub.
