Since joining the Bundesliga 17 years ago, Hoffenheim has never won an away game against Bayern Munich, and it seems that record will remain intact for a long time. Vincent Kompany spoke about his team needing to look hungry on the pitch, and against their regular “customers,” Bayern appeared determined to collect a win and settle accounts, completing the job within the first 30 minutes of the first half. They maintained their dominance until the final whistle, securing a 5–0 victory and keeping their distance from Bayer Leverkusen. Matches between Bayern and Hoffenheim are known for a flurry of goals. Last season, across two games, the net rippled nine times. Not even Andrej Kramarić could help the visitors at the Allianz Arena this time. The Croatian striker deserves a mention as he has historically been a nemesis for Bayern. No current Bundesliga player has scored more goals against the Munich side than the former Rijeka player—eight in total. Last season, he netted a hat-trick in Hoffenheim’s win against Bayern, but today—nothing.GOAL | Bayern Munich 2-0 Hoffenheim | Raphael Guerreiro pic.twitter.com/d4DPBe7ODU— JONERO♏♂️ (@JONERO10) January 15, 2025 🚨🚨| 🇩🇪 GOAL | Bayern Munich 3-0 Hoffenheim | Harry Kane📌Follow my account @moraahmed61199👈to support me pleasepic.twitter.com/JF9uKWMJZX— moraahmed (@moraahmed61199) January 15, 2025 Leroy Sané opened the scoring in the first half, followed by Raphaël Guerreiro, and Harry Kane added another from the penalty spot. Hoffenheim could do little more than sign their surrender and hope for mercy. Bayern, however, tallied five goals, though it felt like they could have scored more if they’d wanted. To make matters worse for Hoffenheim, this marks their fifth consecutive game without a win. Of course, the Allianz Arena is hardly a place to seek salvation, as Bayern ruthlessly demonstrated with this demolition. ⚽️ Goal by Leroy Sane🔴 Bayern München 4-0 Hoffenheim 🔵#Bundesliga #FCBTSG pic.twitter.com/a3zw1HpR0m— 𝐀𝐅𝐂 Loki 🍿 (@TheLokiLad) January 15, 2025 ⚽️ Goal by Serge Gnabry🔴 Bayern München 5-0 Hoffenheim 🔵#Bundesliga #FCBTSG pic.twitter.com/4gnEUyg1xa— 𝐀𝐅𝐂 Loki 🍿 (@TheLokiLad) January 15, 2025 When a player recovers from injury, it usually takes time to regain rhythm. That rule seemingly doesn’t apply to Xavi Simons. After scoring twice against Werder Bremen, the Dutchman assisted Benjamin Šeško’s opening goal for RB Leipzig against Stuttgart. Unfortunately for Leipzig, it wasn’t enough, as Stuttgart managed a comeback to secure a crucial win. To compound Leipzig’s woes, both Benjamin Šeško and Lois Openda received red cards. The road ahead looks tough for Leipzig without them. Werder Bremen has been exceeding expectations this season, but against Heidenheim, they lost three points in the fifth minute of stoppage time.BUNDESLIGA – MATCHDAY 17Tuesday Holstein Kiel – Dortmund 4-2 (3-0)/Machino 27, Harres 32, Bernhardsson 45+4, Arp 90+8 – Reyna 71, Gittens 77/Eintr.Frankfurt – Freiburg 4-1 (1-1)/Koch 43, Marmoush 65, Ekitike 71, Collins 81 – Doan 37/Leverkusen – Mainz 1-0 (0-0)/Grimaldo 48/Wolfsburg – M’ gladbach 5-1 (1-0)/Wind 3 pen, Maehle 60, Arnold 75, Nmecha 84, 87 – Fukuda 89/Wednesday Bochum – St.Pauli 1-0 (0-0)/Hofmann 66/Bayern – Hoffenheim 5-0 (3-0)/Guereirro 12, Kane 26(p), Sane 6, 48, Gnabry 66/Stuttgart – RB Leipzig 2-1 (0-1)/Larsen 50, Woltemade 60 – Šeško 10/Union Berlin – Augsburg 0-2 (0-1)/Claude Maurice 8, 30/Werder – Heidenheim 3-2 (1-1)/Grull 1, 79, Duchsch 56 – Schoppner 30, Kerber 61/
