FC Bayern München 4-0 Club Brugge: Post-match review, Stats, Key moments

Dive into Ladbrokes' post-match review of FC Bayern München 4-0 Club Brugge in the Champions League on Wednesday, 22 October 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.

Well, Bayern Munich didn't just win; they absolutely dominated Club Brugge with a resounding 4-0 victory at home. From the get-go, Bayern showed their class, bagging goals in the 5th, 14th, 34th, and 79th minutes. This result wasn't surprising at all, considering Bayern's recent form, including a 5-1 thrashing of Pafos FC away. Club Brugge, on the other hand, are struggling, having lost their last two matches, including a 1-2 defeat to Atalanta. Bayern's performance was a statement of intent, and it's clear they're in top gear for the Champions League.

Luis Díaz was the standout player for Bayern, contributing significantly to their victory. His performance was a key factor in extending Bayern's winning run and showcasing their dominance in the competition. Club Brugge couldn't find a way to break through Bayern's solid defence, and their recent form suggests they'll need to regroup quickly if they're to salvage anything from their European campaign.

The statistics from the match paint a clear picture of Bayern's dominance. With 64% possession and 9 corners compared to Club Brugge's 36% and 1 corner, Bayern controlled the game from start to finish. Their successful dribbles percentage of 60% also highlights their ability to move the ball effectively. The only yellow card of the match went to Bayern, but it didn't detract from their overall performance. These stats align perfectly with the result, showing Bayern's superiority in every aspect of the game.

The key moments of the match were dominated by Bayern's relentless attack. Goals came early and often, with the first in the 5th minute setting the tone for the rest of the game. The second goal in the 14th minute further solidified Bayern's lead, and by the 34th minute, they were cruising with a 3-0 lead. The final goal in the 79th minute was the icing on the cake, ensuring a comprehensive victory. These moments were crucial in determining the outcome, as Club Brugge had no answer to Bayern's firepower.

Bayern lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Manuel Neuer in goal and a solid backline of Raphaël Guerreiro, Dayot Upamecano, Jonathan Tah, and Konrad Laimer. The midfield was controlled by Joshua Kimmich and Aleksandar Pavlovic, with Michael Olise, Lennart Karl, and Luis Díaz supporting Harry Kane up front. There were no surprises in the lineup, and the impact of the substitutions was minimal, as Bayern's starting XI did the job. Luis Díaz's performance was particularly noteworthy, as he played a pivotal role in the victory.

Club Brugge opted for a 4-1-4-1 formation, with Nordin Jackers in goal and a defence consisting of Kyriani Sabbe, Joel Ordóñez, Brandon Mechele, and Bjorn Meijer. Aleksandar Stanković anchored the midfield, with Carlos Forbs, Lynnt Audoor, Hans Vanaken, and Christos Tzolis supporting Nicolò Tresoldi up top. There were no standout performances from Club Brugge, and their substitutions didn't change the course of the game. The lineup was as expected, but they struggled to make an impact against Bayern's formidable side.

Luis Díaz is Ladbrokes' Man of the Match, and it's easy to see why. With 1 goal, 1 big chance created, and 3 key passes, he was instrumental in Bayern's victory. His performance was a masterclass in attacking play, and he thoroughly deserved the accolade.
