Bayern Munich defeated Borussia Moenchengladbach 3-0 on Saturday after the hosts played with 10 men for most of the match. Joshua Kimmich scored in the 64th minute before Raphael Guerreiro and teenager Lennart Karl added goals to secure Bayern’s 13th straight victory across all competitions this season.

The Bavarian club maintains a perfect record with 24 points from eight league matches and leads second-place RB Leipzig by five points. Gladbach defender Jens Castrop received a red card in the 18th minute for a dangerous tackle that changed the match dynamics.

Bayern struggled to create chances before halftime despite their numerical advantage. The visitors scored 30 goals through eight games to set a new league record for the opening stretch of a season.

Gladbach has not won in 15 consecutive league matches, establishing a new club record for futility. Kevin Stoeger hit the post with a penalty kick in the 75th minute, a shot that could have changed the momentum.
