Can you believe the scale of Bayern’s onslaught? Díaz struck three times as the hosts demolished Leipzig 6-1 at the Allianz Arena.

Bayern were dominant from the outset. In the 12th minute, Joshua Kimmich threaded a pass through for Díaz, who controlled and fired into the left corner to make it 1-0.
The hosts continued to press, and in the 26th minute, Harry Kane sprayed a pass to Díaz, who played in Aleksandar Pavlović for a fine finish at the near post.
Eight minutes later, a swift move involving Konrad Laimer and Kane ended with Michael Olise curling home from the edge of the box.

Díaz completes his hat‑trick
Soon after the break Bayern piled on the pressure. Kane slipped the ball to Díaz, who burst past Klostermann and curled a shot into the corner. Minutes later Kane celebrated his 100th Bundesliga appearance, tapping in from close range after Nathaniel Brown’s assist.
With just 21 minutes left, Díaz completed his hat‑trick, firing from the edge of the box after a quick corner routine involving Olise.
In stoppage time substitute Andrija Maksimović grabbed a late consolation, barely denting an otherwise spectacular display by the champions.

Man of the Match: Luis Díaz
Beyond his three goals, Díaz set up Pavlović and earned Man of the Match with 84 % of the vote, soaring to 126 fantasy points – for my money, he was the clear standout.
