"Monster" Kim Min-jae (Bayern Munich) showed off his strong physical strength by starting in the first half of this season. He also played for 83 minutes in the last match of the first half, contributing to his team's victory.
Bayern Munich won 5-1 at home in the 15th round of the 2024-2025 German Bundesliga at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, on the 21st (Korea time).
Bayern Munich finished the first half with 11 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss (36 points).
Kim Min-jae's 83rd minute performance... Munich wins by scoring a lot
On this day, Bayern Munich operated a 4-2-3-1 formation. Daniel Peretz defended the goal, and Konrad Leimer, Dayo Upamecano, Kim Min-jae and Alfonso Davis formed the four-back. Jojua Kimihi-Leon Goretzka was in the midfield, Michael Olise-Jamal Musiala-Leroy Sane was in the second line, and Harry Kane was in the front line.
Less than 30 seconds into the game, the first goal came out. Olise, who received the Kane pass after breaking the opponent's attack, laid the pass low from the right, and Musiala, who was rushing, finished it.
Bayern Munich's lead did not last long. In the second minute of the first half, Kim Min-jae was completely penetrated while rushing to block Oppenda during a counterattack in Leipzig. Seschuko cut into the net with a right footed shot from Oppenda's low cross that was running fast.
However, Bayern Munich indiscriminately attacked the striker. Musiala's header in the ninth minute of the first half and Upamecano's header in the 12th minute of the first half did not lead to a goal. However, Rhymer poked a through pass to Olise in the 25th minute of the first half, adding to the creativity of his attack. Rhymer scored a goal by scoring a left-footed volley from a low cross that Olise returned.
Kimihi started the scoring race in the 36th minute of the first half. Kimihi, who was advancing by catching the ball directly from the midfield, succeeded in a bold mid-range shot. Leipzig lost a lot of points throughout the first half, helplessly ending the first half.
The game situation was not much different in the second half. Kim Min-jae, who participated in the attack in the third minute of the second half, connected Olise's corner kick with a header, but slightly missed the post.
Sane in the 7th minute of the second half and Olise's consecutive shots in the 12th minute headed out of the goal. Sane's shot following Kane's pass in the 21st minute of the second half went out of the goal, and even Kane's decisive shot in the 22nd minute was blocked by the goalkeeper.
Bayern Munich placed Aleksandar Pavlovic in the midfield in the 23rd minute of the second half. As Kimihi moved to the right fullback, the third line was composed of a Pavlovic-Goretska combination.
Bayern Munich resumed scoring from the 30th minute of the second half. Sané's left-footed shot, which was passed through by Davis, hit the Leipzig goal. In the 33rd minute of the second half, Davis finished Kimihi's early cross from the right with a header.
Kim was substituted for Erik Dyer in the 38th minute of the second half. Along with Dyer, Rafael Gehairou and Matissez-faire came in. Bayern Munich tried to improve their physical stamina by dispatching Thomas Muller in the 42nd minute of the second half without Kane. Leipzig lost the momentum to catch up, helplessly giving up the lead to Munich. Eventually, Bayern Munich ended up winning by 5-1.
Kim Min-jae's Successful First Half of the Season Ends... Recovering His Powerful Skills
Bayern Munich, which entered the 2024-25 season under new coach Bangsang Kompany, led the league with 13 consecutive unbeaten games. 메이저놀이터
However, in the 14th round of the league against Mainz on the 14th, Lee Jae-sung scored multiple goals and lost 1-2, breaking his unbeaten streak. Recently, he has been closely chased by Leverkusen, the winner of last season.
Therefore, it is positive that the team tried to change the mood by winning the final match of the first half against Leipzig, which are ranked fourth in the league. Bayern Munich scored five goals and secured a cool victory.
On this day, Kim Min-jae provided an excuse for a loss due to a mistake in judgment at the beginning of the game, but he later firmly defended the back and helped the team win. In 83 minutes, he recorded 80 touches, 93% pass success rate, one shot, four long passes successful, one clean-up, one interception, five recovery, and five successful aerial ball competitions (83% success rate), and never committed a foul.
As soon as he moved to Bayern Munich last season, Kim Min-jae was a starting player for the first half of the season, but was pushed back due to his poor performance in the second half. It was the first season that even coach Thomas Tuchel was criticized for through media interviews.
Kim Min-jae, who has been given a steady opportunity since the appointment of Bang Sang Kompany this summer and recovered his past prime skills, eventually left the result of starting all games in the first half of this season.
During this period, he had three A-matches with the Korean national team. It must have been a successful first half of the season, considering that he not only had difficulties in managing his condition due to long-distance flights and jet lag, but also played each game with minor injuries.
