Bayern Munich delivered a ruthless performance this Sunday (11), thrashing Wolfsburg 8–1 at the Allianz Arena and further consolidating their lead at the top of the Bundesliga.

Kompany’s Bayern Impress Despite Absences
Before kickoff, Bayern coach Vincent Kompany warned of potential dangers:
“We need to be prepared for the opponent’s strengths. When they have chances, they score goals. I want to see the team impose their style of play.”
Despite missing several important players — including Jackson (Africa Cup of Nations), Davies and Boey (health issues), Kimmich (individual training) and Musiala — Bayern delivered one of their most convincing performances of the season.
