Bayern Munich’s Leon Goretzka scores their second goal against Schalke 04 at Allianz Arena, Munich, September 18, 2020. — Reuters picIn the wake of Thiago Alcantara’s departure to Liverpool, Bayern Munich’s midfield was in the spotlight in the treble winners’ opening Bundesliga win over Schalke 04 on Friday.
Coach Hansi Flick is likely to make an internal replacement rather than a new signing, with fit-again Corentin Tolisso set to benefit. Bayern’s win was played out in front of empty stands at the Allianz Arena while some 9,300 spectators were in Borussia Dortmund’s 80,000-capacity stadium for their 3-0 win over Borussia Moenchengladbach. Other stadiums had as few as 300 spectators.
“I thought it was good because you could see it was a different atmosphere. It has more football character. I think the fans were happy as well.”While Bayern may have put down a marker for a ninth consecutive Bundesliga title, Dortmund’s win over Gladbach confirmed them as possibly the most exciting team to watch, with teenager Giovanni Reyna scoring his debut league goal and fellow 17-year-old Jude Bellingham providing his first assist.
