Bayern win 3-1 in Freiburg after Kompany shock

Oct 26, 2026

Berlin [Germany], October 26: Bayern Munich overcame the collapse of coach Vincent Kompany and the additional absence of key players with a 3-1 triumph at Freiburg on Sunday and returned to the top of the Bundesliga.
Dayot Upamecano opened the scoring in the 16th minute when he blocked a shot at his own penalty area and scored on the ensuing counter-attack and Serge Gnabry made it 2-0 in the 42nd for his 100th goal.
An own goal from Tom Bischof in the 82nd made them sweat it out in the final minutes and they needed a huge save from Jonas Urbig in stoppage time against Matthias Ginter before Olise clinched it at the death when he stole the ball from until then superb goalkeeper Mio Backhaus.
'Extraordinary' victory Bayern passed a big test of courage two days after Kompany collapsed at their training centre and assistant Aaron Danks took charge for the time being.
Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, defender Kim Minjae, midfielders Joshua Kimmich and Aleksandar Pavlovic and winger Luis Díaz were also missing in Freiburg. "It is a much bigger win than the three points," Bayern board member for sport Max Eberl told portal DAZN.
