Augsburg has been a relatively dull team in the past decade, but apparently do enough to stay in the elite each year. Everything changed this year, because Augbsurg has finally shown great signs of improvement. Despite an excellent form of form, they did not do enough to beat their Bavarian rivals. Bayern Munich will be happy to leave with three points, but now with an injured Musiala Jamal.
Bayern Munich has a lot of individual talents
Jamal Musiala, Michael Olise and Leroy Sané all had impressive performances to show the offensive flair of Bayern. Overall, the attack has been great given the quality of the defensive on Augsburg this season, especially lately.
Injuries continue to harm the team
Jamal Musiala fell into this match with a contactless injury. So far, small details are known, but Musiala will surely miss a little time, the season defining matches on the horizon. Whether it is the heavy schedule, international breaks, lack of rotation or team staff who lead to these injuries, the consequences are excellent. Bayern Munich will have to succeed something special with all the players available.
Var troubles
Even if Bayern was on the beneficiary side of the call, there was a clear error with the Var in this match. Augsburg suffered a red card due to a second yellow which should not have been a fault. During the replay, the player first obtained the ball before removing Harry Kane, but Var could not overthrow a decision on a yellow card. Seems an idiotic rule when this yellow leads directly to a red card. Bayern was lucky with it, but the situation could return against Bayern in the future. What is the point of Var if they do not recall these pieces?
