Summer football friendlies are intended to prepare for the cut and thrust of a new competitive campaign, but it is questionable how much Bayern Munich learned from their first assignment of pre-season, a distinctly one-sided 27-0 victory against Rottach-Egern.
At the Bundesliga champions’ camp in picturesque Tegernsee, Jamal Musiala opened the scoring for Thomas Tuchel’s side after three minutes, with Serge Gnabry doubling the lead a minute later. By the 13th minute it was 5-0, Musiala and Gnabry both having scored twice, with the Canada international Alphonso Davies adding the third on eight minutes.
