Bayern Munich Thrash Marseille to Maintain Perfect Start in Champions LeagueBayern Munich Thrash Marseille to Maintain Perfect Start in Champions League Bayern Munich continued their dominant start to the Champions League campaign with a comprehensive 6-0 victory over Olympique de Marseille at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday. The German giants took the lead early through Leroy Sané, who converted a low cross from Alphonso Davies in the sixth minute. Marseille struggled to contain Bayern’s attacking threat, and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting doubled the lead just eight minutes later with a close-range finish. Bayern continued to pile on the pressure, with Joshua Kimmich making it 3-0 in the 26th minute from a long-range thunderbolt. The Bavarians extended their advantage before halftime, as Sané grabbed his second of the night by heading home a cross from Jamal Musiala. After the break, Bayern showed no mercy and continued to dominate possession. Musiala added his name to the scoresheet in the 60th minute with a fine solo effort, while Sadio Mané rounded off the scoring in the 88th minute. Despite Marseille’s efforts to create some chances, they were unable to breach Bayern’s solid defense. Manuel Neuer made several routine saves to keep a clean sheet for the reigning Bundesliga champions. The victory extends Bayern’s perfect start to the Champions League group stage, as they have now won both of their opening fixtures and sit atop Group C. Marseille, meanwhile, remain without a point after two matches. Bayern’s ruthless performance was a testament to their attacking prowess and the depth of their squad. The likes of Mané, Musiala, and Kingsley Coman were all introduced from the bench and made an immediate impact. Marseille will be hoping to bounce back in their next Champions League match against Sporting CP, while Bayern will look to maintain their momentum when they face Inter Milan.
