Wolfsburg reached a state of excitement before their trip to Allianz Arena, having won their last two matches. But they could not withstand the strength of the home team. Bayern could have opened the score in the third minute if Leroy Sane's cannonball had sent the ball lower,Trang Chủ 78WIN   instead of hitting the post.

But the home team only needed 20 minutes to open the score. Goretzka rushed straight to the front of the Wolfsburg penalty area and shot far away when he saw space in front. The bold handling of a player who is often known for his ability to be more aggressive than to create sudden changes somewhat surprised the away team.

Goretzka was not used by Thomas Tuchel last season. But the 33-year-old showed Vincent Kompany that he is still a class midfielder. In the 62nd minute, Goretzka took advantage of his 1m92 height to catch a cross from Michael Olise and hit the ground with his head, increasing the score to 3-1 for the home team. This is the first time this midfielder has scored a double since last March.

Olise also played excellently. In addition to this assist, the French player also increased the score to 2-1 for Bayern with a breakthrough in front of the penalty area and then a cross-angle shot. Wolfsburg goalkeeper Kamil Grabara touched the ball but could not prevent the goal.

Since moving from Crystal Palace last summer, Olise quickly adapted to coach Kompany's tactics. He started 17 matches in the Bundesliga and shouldered the creative responsibility in the context of Jamal Musiala's frequent absence due to injury. Olise has scored 5 goals and assisted 8 times this season.

However, despite winning three points, Bayern still made their fans worried. After opening the score, their defense played quite clumsily in a situation that allowed Mohamed Amoura to equalize. That wasn't the only time the home defense let this Algeria striker loose because 4 minutes before the end of the second half, Amoura completed a double against Manuel Neuer.

In addition, this was an ungainly day for Harry Kane as he missed many opportunities. After recovering from injury, the England captain scored in the last two matches against Gladbach and Hoffenheim but could not maintain his form.

This victory helps Bayern widen the gap with second-place team Leverkusen to seven points. In the middle of next week, they will meet Feyenoord in the seventh round of the Champions League group stage.
