FC Bayern clearly won the top game in the Bundesliga at RB Leipzig.
The Munich team won 4: 1 (1: 0) on Saturday and gave their new coach Julian Nagelsmann a successful return to his previous place of work.
Robert Lewandowski gave the guests the lead in the 12th minute with a hand penalty in front of 34,000 spectators, Jamal Musiala (47th) and Leroy Sané (54th) ensured an early preliminary decision. Konrad Laimer's great long shot hit (58th) no longer helped the Leipzigers. The final score went to Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (90th + 2). With now ten points Bayern are second in the table, RB is stuck with three points in the midfield.
Nagelsmann's working day in the old homestead had started uncomfortably as expected. When the former RB trainer went to the TV interview in the immediate vicinity of the Leipzig fan block at 6 p.m., he was greeted with a whistling concert. “That didn't come as a surprise, it's a bit normal in football, emotions are part of it,” said the 34-year-old, who moved to Bayern after two years in Saxony in the summer. The RB fans are angry because Nagelsmann, contrary to his announcement, took captain Marcel Sabitzer and various assistants to Munich.
