Bayern Begin Title Defense in Dominant Fashion
League champions Bayern Munich wasted no time sending a message to the rest of the Bundesliga, cruising to a 5-1 victory over VfB Stuttgart in the opening match of the 2026/27 season. Dayot Upamecano opened the scoring before Stuttgart briefly leveled early in the second half through Josha Vagnoman. Bayern responded immediately, however, with goals from Michael Olise, Aleksandar Pavlović, and Luis Díaz, while a Vagnoman own goal further added to Stuttgart's misery. The result extends Bayern's remarkable run of unbeaten season openers and immediately places them atop the Bundesliga table.
