Bayern Munich have entered a period of unprecedented dominance in the Bundesliga, leaving their opponents struggling to keep up. The team's second-half power play was on full display as they came from behind to thrash RB Leipzig 5-2 at the Allianz Arena.
Vincent Kompany had warned after Bayern's impressive start to the season that his team would need to "start completely from scratch" in the second half, but it seems that warning fell on deaf ears. The Red Bulls, who were clearly the better side in the first 45 minutes, found themselves facing a team that was seemingly invincible.
Bayern's equaliser, courtesy of Serge Gnabry's 100th goal for the club, sparked a thrilling finish to the game. With three goals in the last 10 minutes, Bayern put the game out of reach and left Leipzig reeling.
Kompany praised his team's "old-school mentality" and physical efforts, saying they gave their opponents no room to breathe. Manuel Neuer, the team's goalkeeper, was also instrumental in Bayern's victory, pulling off a sensational one-handed save to deny Linton Maina and put Köln ahead on Wednesday.
The Bavarians' dominance has left fans and pundits alike marveling at their quality. With 71 goals in the league already this season, Bayern are on course to break records if they continue scoring at their current rate.
Meanwhile, RB Leipzig's struggles have raised questions about the club's long-term prospects under coach Ole Werner. The team is currently languishing in fifth place and has conceded a staggering 39 goals already.
Other Bundesliga teams are struggling as well. Eintracht Frankfurt have been sacked after a dismal run of form, while Borussia Dortmund have benefited from Bayern's dominance to move up the table.
In other news, Cologne came from behind to beat Mainz and keep Urs Fischer's team at bay. Hoffenheim lost to Bayer Leverkusen, while Union Berlin suffered defeat to Werder Bremen.

Bayern Munich is absolutely killing it 
Their second-half power play is insane 
I mean, they came from behind and thrashed RB Leipzig 5-2 at the Allianz Arena - that's just dominance 
Manuel Neuer's save was incredible 
Cologne's comeback win over Mainz was also super exciting 
Not sure what's going on with Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Dortmund though... getting sacked and struggling to move up the table 
I'm just amazed by Bayern Munich right now! They're on fire 
! It's like they're unstoppable 
. Their second-half power play is something else 
! Vincent Kompany must be thrilled with his team's performance 
. The question is, can they keep this momentum going? 
️
. I mean, 5-2 against RB Leipzig? That's insane! 
Their second-half power play was straight fire 
️.
. But seriously, what's going on with RB Leipzig? They're getting thrashed by Bayern every time 
. Maybe coach Ole Werner needs to shake things up?
. But at least Borussia Dortmund is benefiting from Bayern's dominance, right? It's like the league is finally starting to make sense 
. Cologne's win over Mainz was a nice surprise too 
. Bring on the rest of the season! 
and rb leipzig arent just unlucky, theyve been outplayed by the opposition in 3 of their last 4 games...thats not just luck, that's a serious issue 
! Can't wait to see how the rest of the season unfolds... or if anyone can stop Bayern's juggernaut 
. Vincent Kompany's "old-school mentality" is pure gold 
. I'm talking records, awards, the whole shebang 
. Meanwhile, RB Leipzig is struggling to keep up with their rivals 
. Ole Werner needs to step up his game ASAP 
.
and Cologne had a crazy comeback win against Mainz 
.
RB Leipzig can't even get out of the way 
and Leipzig fans are gonna be so worried about Werner now 
. And Eintracht Frankfurt got sacked lol what's next? 
Cologne managed to scrape a win, yay for them I guess 
️. Union Berlin got taken down by Werder Bremen which is super weird since they're like the underdogs in this whole thing 
it's like they have a superpower or something 
if they keep scoring like that, they're gonna break records for sure 
Dortmund's rise up the table is cool though, but we'll see how long that lasts 
and coleman just got sacked after eintracht frankfurt had a total meltdown 
. Ole Werner needs to figure out what's going wrong ASAP - their season is slipping away from them fast 
. I hope some of these teams can get back on track soon, or else Bayern might be unstoppable 
their coach seems really under pressure & they're just getting smashed in all these games 
i'm just worried about berlin union's future 
hoping they can get their act together soon 
. But seriously, RB Leipzig has some serious questions to answer if they want to stay competitive in the league. Their long-term prospects are looking a bit dodgy atm 
. RB Leipzig got outplayed in the first half but still managed to make it 2-0, so I'm not sure how much credit they deserve for that 
.
.
.
. Do you think coach Ole Werner is making some mistakes that are affecting their performance? 
but you can't help but feel for RB Leipzig, they were clearly on top in the first half but Bayern came out strong in the second. it's crazy to see how dominant they're being this season. 71 goals already? 
. Cologne's come-from-behind win against Mainz was a nice surprise too - they're definitely a team to watch 
.
. And if they can't, who knows what'll happen?
