Lightnight start from Bayern

Of their 16 appearances in the official Bundesliga opening match, Bayern remain undefeated and celebrated their 13th victory. “A super start,” as head coach Thomas Tuchel put it after the final whistle. The foundation for this was laid by Leroy Sané with the opening goal in the fourth minute: this was the 18th time that the first goal of a new Bundesliga season was scored by one of the German record champions’  players (including in ten of the past eleven seasons) – that is also a record. In addition, the Munich team scored in each of their most recent twelve matches on Matchday 1, setting a club record.
