They could hardly hope for a better start.

Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting and Bouna Sarr, surprise recruits from Bayern Munich in the final hours of the transfer window, largely contributed to the Bavarians' 3-0 victory in the first round of the German Cup against the team from the 5th division of the FC Düren.

The first signed a brace on two assists from the second.

The two players took advantage of the turn-over operated by coach Hansi Flick, who had left his international engaged in recent days in the Nations League to rest.

Neuer, Kimmich, Goretzka, Gnabry, Sané, Pavard, Hernandez, Tolisso and Coman were able to breathe.

Flick had youngsters from the reserve team and all the new recruits play.
