Midfield

Leon Goretzka  - 7

Didn't always look convincing in possession, but his pressing and energy going forward were a positive as Bayern were trying to overwhelm Gladbach's defensive block.

Joshua Kimmich  - 8.5

Worked hard all game and dictated Bayern’s build-up. Held the midfield together largely on his own as Goretzka played much higher up.

Attack

Thomas Müller -  6

Thomas Muller was very lively in the first half and got involved in several attacks but ultimately couldn’t make a difference. Missed a big chance to give Bayern an early lead.

Leroy Sané  - 5

A performance to forget for the 29-year-old. Looked rusty, indecisive, and missed a clear cut chance to bury the game. Showings like this won't help his case for the contract extension.

Harry Kane  - 6

Struggled to get at the end of chances and had a pretty anonymous game overall. Converted the penalty brilliantly to give Bayern the lead.

Michael Olise  - 9

Bayern's most dangerous attacking threat of the night, by far. He created 4 big chances, all of which went unconverted. Won the penalty that ultimately secured the three points for Bayern.

Substitutes

Kingsley Coman  - 7.5

Subbed on for Thomas Müller in the 60th minute. Bayern’s left wing look much more threatening with his inclusion. 1v1 brilliance led to the penalty for Bayern.

Serge Gnabry  - 6

Came on for Leroy Sané in the 73rd minute. Got in some good positions to double Bayern’s lead but failed in doing so.
