Bayern Munich Survive Late Scare to Beat Freiburg 3-1

Aaron Danks guided Bayern to a 3-1 win as the champions stretched their lead at the top after Vincent Kompany missed the match.

  • Bayern Munich captain Joshua Kimmich withdrew from Wednesday's Champions League squad against Arsenal following the death of his father, Berthold, the club announced on Tuesday.
  • German newspaper BILD identified the deceased as Berthold, aged 57, a pivotal figure in Kimmich's early career; Kimmich, 31, is now with his wife, Lina, and their four children during the mourning period.
  • Bayern faces a depleted squad for the European fixture, missing suspended Michael Olise and injured Jamal Musiala alongside Kimmich, compounding tactical challenges against Arsenal.
  • Head coach Vincent Kompany missed Tuesday's media conference battling a viral infection; assistant Aaron Danks confirmed the illness 'affected his legs,' leaving Kompany's status for Wednesday uncertain.
  • Aleksandar Pavlovic and Tom Bischof are expected to form the central midfield pairing in Kimmich's absence, testing Bayern's squad depth against Arsenal's high-pressing demands.
