FootyBiteOctober 22, 2020

MUNICH: Bayern Munich began their campaign to defend their Champions League title by beating Atletico Madrid 4-0.

Two months after scoring Bayern’s winning goal over Paris Saint-Germain in the last edition of Lisbon, Kingsley Coman put Bayern ahead of Atletico in Group A and once again found the target for Bayern’s fourth goal.

Leon Goretzka and Corentin Tolisso also scored in the empty Allianz Arena without an audience.

“The winning goal in last season’s final gave a boost, but it has passed and we have new goals this season,” Coman said.

It was Bayern’s 12th consecutive Champions League victory while Atletico matched their worst defeat record under Diego Simeone.

Bayern will travel to Russia to meet Lokomotiv Moscow, who bounced back to tie Red Bull Salzburg 2-2.
