Source context
Despite having an injury-ridden squad after suffering long-term injuries to both Ismael Saibari and Serge Gnabry in the 2-2 draw with Borussia Dortmund over the weekend, Bayern Munich pulled off a dominant display, defeating Atletico Madrid 2-0 at the Wanda Metropolitano in the Champions League. The result means the German Rekordmeister remain undefeated across all competitions this season, as the only team left in Europe’s top five leagues that can boast that statistic. Goals from Lennart Karl (54’) and Konrad Laimer (74’) put Bayern past Atletico in a strong performance that very well could have ended with a larger scoreline in Bayern’s favor.
