Bayern Munich wasted absolutely no time announcing their intent in Saturday’s Bundesliga clash against Eintracht Frankfurt — quite literally. In a breathtaking start, Luis Díaz struck just 15 seconds after kickoff to give the reigning champions the lead, recording the fastest goal of the Bundesliga season so far.
The move was classic Bayern — direct, explosive, and ruthless. It began deep in their own half when Manuel Neuer, showing his trademark confidence on the ball, launched a pinpoint long pass upfield. Serge Gnabry raced down the right flank, cut inside with pace, and fired a low cross into the box. Waiting with perfect timing was Díaz, who slotted home coolly past the helpless Frankfurt goalkeeper. The Allianz Arena erupted — fans could barely believe what they’d seen before the clock even ticked past 00:16.
That goal not only showcased Bayern’s attacking sharpness but also set the tone for what was to follow. The visitors, stunned and struggling to find rhythm, barely had time to regroup before Harry Kane doubled the advantage with a thunderous long-range strike midway through the first half.
The Englishman’s effort, driven low and true into the bottom corner, made history of its own. Kane became the first player in Bundesliga history to score at least 11 goals in the opening six matches of a season — a staggering record that underlines his seamless adaptation to life in Germany. His strike left Frankfurt’s defence rooted and further cemented his reputation as one of Europe’s deadliest finishers.
Bayern’s dominance was total. Their relentless pressing, quick transitions, and fluid movement left Frankfurt chasing shadows. Every touch from Jamal Musiala, every darting run from Leroy Sané, added to the sense that this Bayern side — brimming with confidence and cohesion — is operating at a frightening level.
By halftime, the game already felt beyond reach for Frankfurt. For Bayern, though, it was another emphatic statement of intent — a reminder that they remain the team to beat in Germany.
From Díaz’s lightning strike to Kane’s record-breaking brilliance, it was a performance that encapsulated the Bavarian giants’ season so far: fast, fearless, and utterly unstoppable.
