The Champions League matches on the morning of October 24 witnessed many surprises, including Barcelona’s “destruction” against Bayern Munich.

Bayern Munich suffered a crushing defeat.

Bayern Munich are highly rated and confident when entering the match against Barcelona, ​​an opponent they have won all 6 recent matches.

However, the Gray Tigers’ goal of extending their record to 7 was soon “drenched” by Barcelona with the opening goal in the 58th second by Raphinha after a mistake by Raphael Guerreiro.

Bayern then quickly equalized 1-1 after Harry Kane’s flying shot scored in the 18th minute. However, that was all the Gray Tigers could do in this encounter.

Individual mistakes then cost Bayern two more goals in the first half after perfect opportunities from Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha.

Bayern Munich’s sad day ended in the 56th minute when Raphinha had a classy sprint and finish, completing a hat-trick to bring a resounding 4-1 victory to Barcelona.

Remarkably, in 90 minutes at Olimpico Lluis Companys, the home team only had 4 shots on target and all of them turned into goals.

This result helped Barcelona have their first victory over Bayern Munich after 9 long years of “bitter fruit”, including a 2-8 defeat – a match in which the Gray Tigers were led by Hansi Flick – the current “captain” of the Catalan team.

The resounding victory over Bayern helped Barcelona rise to 10th place in the rankings with 6 points and a goal difference of +7.

On the other side of the front line, Bayern Munich dropped to 23rd place with 3 points after three matches, and losing two consecutive matches in the Champions League has made coach Vincent Kompany’s seat shaky.

Previously, Bayern Munich suffered a shocking 0-1 defeat away at Aston Villa.

Along with Bayern, other German football representatives also experienced disappointing matches when only VfB Stuttgart was the winning team.

VfB Stuttgart created a surprise when they defeated Juventus 1-0 thanks to a goal by El Bilal Toure, thereby gaining their first victory in the Champions League this season.

Meanwhile, Dortmund, despite having a two-goal lead at the Santiago Bernabei, still suffered a 2-5 defeat against Real Madrid.

RB Leipzig lost 0-1 to Liverpool at home, while Bayer Leverkusen drew 1-1 away at the Brest phenomenon.
