Game Preview
Vincent Kompany’s team showed no mercy to Auckland, whom they beat 10-0 in the opening game. Jamal Musiala was eager to play after a long time, and we saw that. The German playmaker scored 3 goals in half an hour on the field.
This was the 8th consecutive meeting for Bayern in which they scored at least twice and the 5th time in the last six meetings that Muller, Kane, and the boys netted at least three goals.
Boca was on the verge of beating Benfica, leading 2-0 after 27 minutes of play and controlling everything on the field. Then came a slump that saw them allowing two goals, both by their compatriots, Angel Di Maria and Nicolas Otamendi. In the end, it was a 2-2 tie.
They haven’t won the last 5 games in a row. This is a problem for the team, especially after failing to keep a two-goal lead in their opening game here. Plus, Ander Herrera and Jorge Figal won’t play because of their red cards.
Bayern Munich vs. Boca Juniors Head to Head
