Bayern Munich achieved a 3-2 victory over VfL Wolfsburg in their opening Bundesliga match under new coach Vincent Kompany. Jamal Musiala opened the scoring, but Bayern's defense faltered early in the second half, allowing Wolfsburg to equalize through Lovro Majer, who then scored again shortly after. A fortunate own goal by Jakub Kaminski and a late goal by Serge Gnabry secured the win for Bayern, despite their inconsistent performance reminiscent of last season. Kompany, who succeeded Thomas Tuchel after a disappointing campaign, emphasized the importance of communication and honesty with his players, which has been positively received. He aims to foster competition within the squad, particularly in midfield where Leon Goretzka is under pressure to maintain his position. The match showcased both the potential and the challenges facing Kompany's revamped Bayern side this season.
