Bayern München delivered a clinical performance at Deutsche Bank Park on Saturday, routing Eintracht Frankfurt 3-0 to maintain their immaculate start to the Bundesliga season. Luis Díaz was the architect, scoring twice and assisting another, as Vincent Kompany’s side showcased their championship credentials in style.

It took only 15 seconds for Bayern to stamp their authority on the contest. Serge Gnabry, lively from the outset, surged down the flank before picking out Díaz at the far post; the Colombian winger arrived perfectly to fire home for the fastest goal of the Bundesliga season. The early strike immediately set the tone, rattling Frankfurt and settling Bayern’s nerves.

Frankfurt did rally, briefly threatening through Jean-Mattéo Bahoya, who thought he had equalized in the 14th minute, only for the goal to be ruled out for handball. That reprieve emboldened Bayern further. With 60% possession, their precision in midfield—driven by Leon Goretzka and Joshua Kimmich—slowly suffocated the hosts.

By the 27th minute, Bayern had doubled their lead. Again, Díaz was central, this time turning creator. Latching onto a clever ball in the inside-left channel, he whipped a precise cross for Harry Kane. The Englishman didn’t hesitate, slotting the ball into the far corner for his sixth league goal of the campaign.

Frankfurt struggled to find any rhythm, limited to just one shot on target the entire match. Bayern’s defense marshaled by Dayot Upamecano and Jonathan Tah, rarely allowed Jonathan Burkardt a sniff at goal. The home side’s frustration was evident, culminating in a rash yellow card for Burkardt late on.

Kompany’s men circulated the ball with trademark composure, racking up 706 passes at a remarkable 90% accuracy. Although Bayern were content to manage the game through much of the second half, they added gloss to the scoreline in the 84th minute. Substitute Raphaël Guerreiro found Díaz in space, and the Colombian completed his brace with a powerful finish to seal the 3-0 scoreline.

Luis Díaz deservedly claimed man of the match honors for his relentless threat and clinical edge. Kane’s goal extended his blistering form, while Neuer was rarely troubled, posting a lone save. For Frankfurt and coach Dino Toppmöller, it was an afternoon of frustration, their attack stifled and their momentum checked.

Bayern remain perfect after six rounds, setting an ominous pace atop the Bundesliga and sending an emphatic message to their closest challengers.
