The triple winner reached the second round of the DFB Cup without problems. Against the winner of the Middle Rhine Cup, a new addition was particularly compelling.
Bayern Munich successfully started their title defense mission on the club’s first internal ball in the DFB Cup. In the first round catch-up game, the record-breaking champion team B defeated the plucky fifth division club 1. FC Düren with a lackluster 3-0 in the first appearance of several summer additions.
Goals for the weakened triple winner were scored by new forwards Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting (24th and 75th) and Thomas Müller (36th, penalty). The brave stranger from Düren said goodbye with his head held high when he entered his first drink and can expect a bonus of 137,000 euros. The second round of the cup is scheduled for December 22 and 23.
Choupo-Moting was completely satisfied with his debut in the Munich jersey: “It was a pleasant night. I am happy to be back in Germany and for my two goals. It was a good debut.” Meanwhile, former world champion Müller also admitted into the Sky microphone that he had been surprised by Düren’s tactics: “They copied our style of play. At first we had problems with him. It didn’t seem like there were so many classes between us.” would do. “
FC Bayern with five newcomers in the starting eleven
Bayern coach Hansi Flick, whose team will be challenged again on Saturday (6.30 pm / in the live ticker on t-online) with the Bundesliga promotion Arminia Bielefeld, had to do without his national players around captain Manuel Neuer, striker Robert Lewandowski or defensive boss David Alaba. To do this, Alexander Nübel started in goal for the first time, before Bouna Sarr, Marc Roca, Douglas Costa and Choupo-Moting, who were signed shortly before the transfer deadline, made their debut.
For Düren there was only one motto: to be better “than Schalke and Barcelona”, as the club’s coach, Wolfgang Spelthahn, had said before. FC Barcelona (2: 8) and Schalke 04 (0: 8) had lost to Flick-Elf in recent weeks and months.
This goal was in no danger for Düren, who had given up his right to stay at home. The league club showed no respect, deftly closing the quarters, sometimes pressuring six men in the Bayern penalty area and even had the first good chance after just 23 seconds.
FC Bayern lacked a vote against fifth division clubs
However, with the second set of the Munich Champions League winners, the lack of coordination was clearly visible. Veterans Müller and Javi Martínez often had to reprimand their teammates with strong orders, the Voreifel underdog initially holding up well.
It was 18 minutes until Bayern’s first big chance, but Choupo-Moting missed due to strong Kevin Jackmuth on Dürener’s goal. Soon after, the spell was broken: the conspicuous Sarr ran away from everyone with one of his ultra-fast steps and ideally served Choupo-Moting in the center, who met for the first time in the Bayern jersey.
Striker Choupo-Moting participated in all three goals
It was also Choupo-Moting who took the penalty to make it 2-0. Costa’s return first appeared shortly before the break with a good dribble and an outside kick.
Even after the break, the favorite, where talents like Jamal Musiala (17), Angelo Stiller (19), Leon Dajaku (19) or Armindo Sieb (17) were able to prove their worth, continued to struggle. Occasional defensive gaps formed, on offense Choupo-Moting (57th) missed completely on his feet and Musiala (64th) on the post. A quarter of an hour before the end, Choupo-Moting awarded himself his second goal.
