The Bavarians rallied from a goal down to snare the victory and improve to nine points after failing to defeat the Foals in their previous five games in all competitions.
Prior to this past Saturday, no other team had won more league games versus Bayern than Gladbach, who had a record of 10 wins, nine losses, and five ties.
The end of a tumultuous week for Bayern was marked by the failure of a deal to sign Joao Palhinha, a defensive midfielder from Portugal who played for Fulham and was at the top of coach Thomas Tuchel’s wish list, shortly before the transfer deadline.
“Today was enjoyable. After falling behind 1-0, we were a little tight for ten minutes, but we were able to recover and take control of the game, according to Thomas Mueller of Bayern. “After 1-0, I believed I was watching the incorrect movie. Win was well-deserved.
For the opening 30 minutes, Bayern had perfect control and had more than 70% of the possession before the home team unexpectedly scored when Ko Itakura’s looping header from a corner went over goalkeeper Sven Ulreich.
Gladbach’s Marvin Friedrich previously hit the woodwork, but Bayern nearly equalized when Leroy Sane’s strong drive was deflected onto the crossbar by Gladbach goalkeeper Moritz Nicolas in the 39th minute.
After the break, the visitors picked up the pace and missed early chances from Leon Goretzka and Robert Mueller before Joshua Kimmich floated a brilliant ball for Leroy Sane, who stabbed home to tie the score in the 58th and increase his league tally to three goals.
Substitute The Bavarians should have added another goal in the 70th, but Serge Gnabry’s clear-cut header was stopped by Nicolas.
With three minutes remaining, Tel performed significantly better, rising above his defender to score with a head kick.
Friday’s 2-2 home draw between Borussia Dortmund and newly-promoted Heidenheim was a slip-up, while Saturday’s 5-1 thrashing of Darmstadt 98 by Bayer Leverkusen made it three straight victories for the Bavarian club.
