Bayern Munich’s Thrilling Win over Augsburg: Match Awards and Key Players


Match Winner: Kristijan Jakić (Augsburg)

The Augsburg midfielder put in a standout performance, pressing Bayern relentlessly, making a nuisance of himself, and even providing a goal and an assist as Augsburg mounted an impressive comeback from 3-0 down. His performance will likely make him undroppable despite questions about his suitability for Augsburg’s new possession-based style.

Star of the Show: Josip Stanišić (Bayern Munich)

Playing out of position on the left, the Croat was instrumental in creating havoc for Augsburg’s defense. Whether underlapping, overlapping, or drifting into midfield, Augsburg couldn’t handle him. He faded in the second half as Augsburg pressed forward, but his impact was already made.

Unstoppable Forward: Serge Gnabry (Bayern Munich)

The makeshift attacking midfielder continued his rich vein of form, scoring the opening goal and demonstrating impressive movement and work rate. Gnabry’s transformation into a more central forward is evident and has been lauded by Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann.

Clutch Finisher: Michael Olise (Augsburg)

The winger had an up-and-down performance, missing sitters and passing up easy chances. However, his clinical finish to make it 3-2 and his overall work rate made it a good game for him.

Main Event MVP: Harry Kane (Bayern Munich)

On his 100th appearance, the England captain ran the show. His assist for the first goal, claimed assist for the third, and his pinpoint passing throughout the game showcased his world-class ability.

Lessons Learned: Bayern’s Slow Start and Mid-game Wobble

  • Bayern Munich looked slow out of the blocks but grew into the game, showing their class and experience.
  • A mid-game wobble allowed Augsburg to claw their way back into the game, a reminder of the importance of focus and concentration.
