Bundesliga: Mane Scores Debut Goal To Help Bayern Thrash Frankfurt 6-1 At Home

Bundesliga: Mane Scores Debut Goal To Help Bayern Thrash Fra

Bayern Munich laid Eintracht Frankfurt's defence bare in an opening 6-1 win at the Deutsche Bank Park on Bundesliga match day 1.

New signing Sadio Mane scored his official debut goal with teenage forward Musiala scoring two of the six goals helping the Bavarians to allay the fears of Robert Lewandowski's exit.

French defender Pavard scored just five minutes later, volleying in a loose ball across his body in a manner reminiscent of his goal of the tournament against Argentina in the 2018 World Cup.

Despite the opening onslaught, Frankfurt striker Randal Kolo Muani, another one of those subbed on at halftime, managed to pull one back in the 64th minute, scoring on his debut for the Eagles.

Musiala tapped in a dribbled cross from Thomas Mueller from close range to score his first goal while his second was in the 83rd minute with a cool finish after beating several tired Frankfurt defenders.

Asked after the match if Munich winning the Bundesliga was beginning to feel like "normality", Nagelsmann unsurprisingly said he was happy with the status quo.

"When you win ten in a row, yes it starts to feel normal," he told the press.

"But I don't really care if it feels normal or not - but yes, it can stay 'normal'.

"The first half was outstanding. I don't think it'll always be like this, but we should be satisfied."

"The whole time, the boys tried everything, but Bayern were just two good for us. Today we didn't have a chance," said Frankfurt coach Oliver Glasner.

Rode summed up his side's performance.

"The first half was an absolute debacle".

Frankfurt will now take the 6-1 loss as a lesson ahead of UEFA Super Cup against Real Madrid.
