It was clear from the draw that it would be difficult for Atalanta, but Bayern turned their first adventure in this stage of the Champions League into a nightmare, "dismantling" them inside Bergamo, turning the first act into a tennis game. Without Harry Kane and captain Neuer, the two main points, Kompany not only did not have a hard time, but had fun as if it were a routine match in the championship, triumphing 6-1, making the qualification for the next stage a formality.

12 minutes into the game was enough to take the lead, where a defensive lapse led Gnabry to find Stanisic alone in the area, with the Croatian defender having an easy time pushing the ball into the net. Olise then took over, with the French striker doubling the score in the 22nd minute with his typical left-footed shot. Three minutes later, Olise this time provided a clean assist for Gnabry with the German striker alone in front of the goalkeeper to make it 0-3.

With the start of the second half, coach Palladino benched Berat Gjimshiti, but the story of this match did not change, with Bayern scoring almost every attack. In the 52nd, Luis Diaz served Jackson with the Senegalese who completed the “poker” of goals with a precise shot. Bayern did not slow down for a moment and in the 64th, Olise scored a super goal with a fantastic shot on the edge of the penalty area. To complete the magical evening, Musiala thought, with the German talent who served on the limits of the fatal line, pushing the ball easily into the net. In a “horror” match, Atalanta at least found the goal of honor with Pasalic in the 93rd minute.

Bayern is rightly celebrating this great victory, this fantastic success that gives them the status of one of the favorite teams to triumph in this edition of the Champions League.
