Rotated bayern

UEFA Champions League: Bayern Munich continued its impeccable start to the Bundesliga season with a commanding 3-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen, ending the visitors' 37-match unbeaten away run.

With a crucial UEFA Champions League trip to Paris Saint-Germain ahead, Bayern coach Vincent Kompany made seven changes from midweek's Cup win. Captain Manuel Neuer returned in goal, while youngsters Tom Bischof and Lennart Karl earned starts. Star trio Harry Kane, Michael Olise and Luis Diaz began on the bench.

Despite the rotation, Bayern immediately took charge and pressed Leverkusen deep into its half. The breakthrough came in the 25th minute when Bischof threaded a through ball to Serge Gnabry, who finished past goalkeeper Mark Flekken. Six minutes later, Nicolas Jackson rose highest to meet Konrad Laimer's cross and doubled the lead. Just before halftime, Raphael Guerreiro's low delivery was turned by Loic Bade into his own net, sealing the result before the break.
