Hanadawa sounds as if in a final competition, when both teams cannot make a difference in the scoreline, it's not penalty that's used to determine the winner. There are some players that cannot even score penalties so if you see a player like Harry Kane scoring with a penalty kick, you should give him all the respect because he is good at it, and that's why he remains the best penalty taker in Bayern. Is it easy to score hat-trick when you are not the only player on the field.
I am still impressed with Harry Kane's performance in that match even though the hat-trick he created was thanks to a penalty kick because it is not easy to execute a penalty because if he fails he will be blamed by many parties including Bayern Munich fans, Harry Kane has done his best for Bayern Munich so far and we should appreciate it I am sure his hard work now will soon pay off if his club wins the Bundesliga title this season.

Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund's rivalry mostly goes in favor of Bayern Munich and for the fact that Bayern Munich is very much in good form now, they will certainly win Dortmund and claim the three points because Dortmund is in an unstable form now and meeting Bayern munich at this early stage of the league even reduce their chances of coming out victorious against Munich. However, even if Dortmund succeeds to give Bayern Munich a surprise winning, i don't think it will now make them become stronger in their upcoming games. The only thing that will make me to consider Dortmund in standing a chance to win Munich is just due to their long time rivalry such that when they meet, their match is always tough as any team that wins amongst the both clubs always works extra hard to win the other.
I partly agree that Bayern Munich has better chance of winning because of their current form. Bayern consistency and strength make them more likely to win. However I strongly think that Borussia Dortmund unpredictable behavior and intense competition between two teams could lead to surprising result. History of their matches shows that either team can win on any day no matter how well they are playing. So while Bayern form gives them an edge it does not mean they will definitely win. Borussia Dortmund determination to win driven by their long standing rivalry could push them to pull off surprise victory.

If we talk about the last match of Munich where Harry Kane scored a hat trick, sorry but I don't think it's "amazing" for a goal scored from a penalty kick. I know it's not easy to be a penalty taker because there will be a lot of pressure and it takes a strong mentality. However, a goal from a penalty kick is not something that can be called "amazing". But I admit Munich's performance in that match was great. And Kane showed a brilliant performance in his last goal. Kane showed brilliant ball control and sharp goal-scoring instincts that show his level as a pure world-class striker. I think if it was another striker maybe they would think to score on the first touch that would make the chance become a goal or fail to become a goal.In Bayern Munich, even a hat trick is not something hard for Kane because there he is the only one and there are no other target forwards than Kane that's why usually the playmakers in Bayern Munich will supply opportunities for Harry Kane and since he has the enough experience and skill he can score goals easily while the other players in Bayern Munich and other wards can never fill the place of Kane in this team and that's why Kane is happy in to have these many goal opportunities. Even in Tottenham, he could have many chances like this.
The match will not be as simple for Bayern Munich as we might think especially as they will be playing away from home; but the statistics and their last encounters is what made people to think otherwise especially as Bayern has now become another team entirely under Vincent Kompany.
If Dortmund can win the game, it will be a very good move for them because they really need the three points to progress in the League table standings, likewise if they lose, they might lose their chance of competing for the Bundesliga title race. However, a draw will be a fair result for Dortmund because despite their performance this season, they know how to play big teams.

Nobody really says it is going to be simple for Bayern Munich because the data tells otherwise as Borussia Dortmund has not lost any game at home and they didn't tie any of their games. They won them all and are weak when they don't play at home, which makes them look weaker as they are because their record at home speaks for itself. I doubt that Bayern Munich thinks this is going to be simple.
But Borussia Dortmund hasn't had a promising record against Bayern Munich for quite a while now. I can't tell from the top of my head, but if I remember correctly they have lost most of their games in the last 5 years or so.
I don't know who Augsburgs goalkeeper is, never heard of him before this game because I do not watch their games closely, but that dude saved 10+ shots in this game, which is insane and some of them were like 99% goal chances and Bayern could have scored a lot more goals in this game if it wasn't for that goalkeeper.
His name is Labrovic, like I said I never heard of him, but he did amazingly on this game and I believe that we are going to hear about him a bit more, this game could have been easily a 8-0 type of game, and we know Bayern doesn't stop when they start scoring so not like they would have stopped after scoring three goals, they would have put more pressure in and thankfully the goalkeeper did alright and saved them a huge humiliation, they are doing much better this way. I think it's clear that we are seeing something much better here, and Bayern did fine too so it was a good game for them without a doubt, they got the win and Kane got his hattrick.

Bayern Munich could be better, but Dortmund has a lot more to lose. If Bayern Munich ends up losing this game, nothing changes for them and they are still the leader and they will probably end up being the champions at the end of the season as well, this game doesn't impact their entire season and they are still good enough.
However, if Dortmund wins this game, that would be hardest game they will have, and if it's three points from there, it will be easier afterwards and Dortmund could end up with a better position. If they end up losing to Bayern Munich, then the gap with higher standings going to grow and it will become much harder to fix that which is why we are expecting them to do better, and that should not be impossible.

Bayern could have a very easy game and they could get the win without a doubt, it looks like it is not that much of a big trouble at all. I believe we are going to see a bigger win for them and shouldn't be an issue at all. I believe we are going to see this growing to a great level without a doubt. I know that this will take a while but we could make this work and shouldn't really be an issue.
Bayern Munich is just far greater team, and of course they may lose, it's football and anything could happen, but we do not bet on that, if we were to act like that then we wouldn't be able to bet on any game at all. We bet on based on who we think will be the best to bet on, likely winner, and Bayern will be the likely winner here.
Today Bayern Munich full strength team will play match against Paris Saint-Germain full strength team. No doubt Bayern Munich is favorite for that match because Bayern Munich stat is Osum abd it gives confident timo that team. That match will be held in Allianz Arena stadium and I think in this ground Bayern Munich will play well . Bayern Munich team won back to back 5 matches which is green sign about that team and Paris Saint-Germain team won 4 matches out of last 5 matches but that team performance is not bad and we will see good competition but Bayern Munich has more chances and beters are feeling good about Bayern Munich .

Dortmund really always managed to get back into the top four or to finish in the Champions League zone, because as far as I remember if I'm not mistaken before it seemed like Dortmund was in seventh place. And also, at that time I thought it was difficult for Dortmund to get back into the top four but yes, in reality it still looks easy for Dortmund to get back into the top four. The big win against Freiburg at least is proof that Dortmund still has good quality and has never been a team that is really down, because Dortmund always managed to rise or recover in the same season. Thus, I think it is not surprising about Dortmund who always managed to have the best quality players in their squad. Currently, Dortmund only has a four-point gap with Eintracht Frankfurt who is in second place.

Every goal scored is very important in football especially for the side that scored the goal, wether it is from the penalty spot or open play, or be it from any spot within the pitch it is very important because it gives any of the teams the advantage during the game or reduces their chances of the other team winning the game.
There are lots of players whom have stepped out to take penalties for their teams but ended up wasting the opportunity which could have either given their team the chance of getting back into the game or winning the match, so I think Harry kane should be commended for keeping the standards high by adding to his tally, because at the end of the season every goal is going to count for him.
Also, his last goal was a phenomenal goal, the way he controlled the ball and headed it in was something otherwordly, dude scored one of the most charismatic goals ever and I believe it will be shown for a long time, it will be in youtube goal videos for decades and that was definitely something to watch.There are lots of players whom have stepped out to take penalties for their teams but ended up wasting the opportunity which could have either given their team the chance of getting back into the game or winning the match, so I think Harry kane should be commended for keeping the standards high by adding to his tally, because at the end of the season every goal is going to count for him.
Sure the first two goals were from penalty, but I agree that taking the penalty isn't that easy, most do not do that well anymore, too much pressure nowadays, Kane is cold blooded and he did alright. With his hattrick coming from that amazing goal, I believe he played a great game, also it is not just goals that makes someone play amazing, while he did score three, he also played amazingly aside from the goals as well.

Bayern Munich has won more games in this fixture and it’s almost like Dortmund are really not much of a threat to them, i don’t think there will be much difference this time around because Bayern Munich is currently on a 6 game winning streak and they are 6 points ahead of 2nd place and 10 points ahead of Dortmund so i don’t see Bayern losing this game. Dortmund need to win or draw else they will lose their current position to either Freiburg or Monchengladbach and Bayern Munich also needs to win to maintain their winning streak and keep extending their points. However, if Dortmund wins this game, that would be hardest game they will have, and if it's three points from there, it will be easier afterwards and Dortmund could end up with a better position. If they end up losing to Bayern Munich, then the gap with higher standings going to grow and it will become much harder to fix that which is why we are expecting them to do better, and that should not be impossible.
Dortmund inconsistency this season has made them to become a struggling team they have already lost to Mainz and Ausburg already this season which is really bad for them so they need all the points they can now to cover up for the points they’ve lost. There is still hope for them to at least challenge for a top four spot.
Gladbach managed to get the win at home.Gladbach is slowly starting to recover after scoring 3 points with a 2-0 win over St. Pauli.Gladbach scored the goals in the first half and had chances in the second half but couldn't capitalize.
Holstein Kiel, on the other hand, hosted Mainz at home.The home team, who did not play well against Mainz, lost 3-0 at home and it seems that they will not be able to hold on to the league this season.Kiel, who has collected 5 points in 11 matches in the league so far, I don't think Kiel can hold on to the league.

The game is indeed very important and crucial for Dortmund, to increase their position in standing after so far dropping a lot of points after poor form , a win against Munich could be a big boost for them, both morally and in terms of position in the standings, so it could probably be a turning point that helps them catch up with their lag in the Bundesliga later, but beating Munich is not an easy thing and they can do considering Munich performance which is currently on fire, although Munich has a considerable advantage with the existing point difference and the defeat will not affect their status in the standings, but I think maintaining a winning streak is very important for them, because after all defeat will probably have an impact on the morale and psychology of the players, So it is indeed very important to keep winning that the der Klassiker match. However, if Dortmund wins this game, that would be hardest game they will have, and if it's three points from there, it will be easier afterwards and Dortmund could end up with a better position. If they end up losing to Bayern Munich, then the gap with higher standings going to grow and it will become much harder to fix that which is why we are expecting them to do better, and that should not be impossible.
I think this match was great for Bayern Munich. I understand that two of the goals that they have scored out of three have been from penalties. But those were definitely penalties. And of course, the team is going to take at full times of those penalties. By the way, the last goal that was covered by Harry Kane was absolutely incredible. Yes, it was definitely a great outing for Bayern Munich and I think they also deserved the win as well. I also believe that they are playing really well under the new coach. Of course, the main team that was supposed to compete with them for the title is not playing well right now. And that is also helping them. But as a team, they are definitely doing well. Their hardest match is coming next week, hope Die Roten will show their potential once again to beat Dortmund next Saturday.
Dortmund are historically tough opponents for Bayern but the next game against them is definitely not important. Bayern dominates the Bundesliga and has a 6 point advantage over 2nd place (and that's Eintracht lol) so any result won't be a problem. The much more important game is against PSG in the Champions League as Bayern are in a precarious position in the Champions League.
Bayern could have a very easy game and they could get the win without a doubt, it looks like it is not that much of a big trouble at all. I believe we are going to see a bigger win for them and shouldn't be an issue at all. I believe we are going to see this growing to a great level without a doubt.

A goal is a goal regardless of how it was scored. Just as you recognized scoring penalties is not as cheap as we think. I have played football and can authoritatively state that taking penalties requires skill and confidence to score. The goalkeeper will try to put tension on the player and the fans will also increase the anxiety. Harry Kane got a clear hat trick and he should be celebrated for that. His performance was amazing because a striker's input is mainly determined by the goals he scored. The entire three goals didn't also come through penalties, the third goal was beautiful.
That's right, if we talk about the third goal, it was one of the most unique goals I've ever seen, even the goal is the same as the logo in the Bundesliga. To score a goal like this of course requires a high balance to achieve it. Very cool.
Yes, it's quite satisfying, at least Xabi will be free from various criticisms again for this time. But so far, Leverkusen has been able to excel more often than the club. This time, Leverkusen must compete more to be able to enter the top 2, they must surpass Leipzig and Frankfurt whose points gap is actually not too much. It's just that for the next week, their opponent will be quite strong, Union Berlin, although this season their performance is not that good, but this club is also often troublesome.
While on the other side, there will be a big match between Bayern Munich vs Dortmund. If you look at the current situation, Bayern Munich is very advantaged and tends to be stronger. It's just that Dortmund is also often that strong when facing top teams, especially their main rival, Bayern Munich. That means, they will definitely be that optimal this time
A victory that must be celebrated because the series of draws can be broken with a big win. Xabi Alonso has found a strategy to bring the team back to 3 points. But for now they are 9 points behind Bayern Munich, of course that is quite a distance because Bayern Munich's pace this season is quite good in the Bundesliga.

It's just that Dortmund is also often that strong when facing top teams, especially their main rival, Bayern Munich. That means, they will definitely be that optimal this time
However, I think Leverkusen's target this season is the top 4, because Leverkusen has difficulty competing for the championship title. Even so, their chances are still open because there are still many matches left this season. Leverkusen must also focus as best as possible on their performance in the Champions League, of course Xabi Alonso must be able to turn a good strategy to bring the team on the path to victory in the Bundesliga or in the Champions League.
The thing is, Die Werkself was playing under a new coach who had implemented a tactics that a lot of coaches did not expect from them. But now everyone knows what to expect and how to counter Xabi Alonso's tactics. That's why I think the same tactics which the coach is trying to implement is just not working. I had a feeling that this season is going to be tough for Alonso. Actually, I still thought they are going to be in competition for the league title. But right now it seems like that is going to be very hard for Alonso's side to actually do.
Being nine points behind the top team is definitely not something of a situation that they should have allowed themselves to be in. And especially when the top team is Bayern Munich. It is definitely going to be very tough. Let's see how Alonso's men can overcome, if they are even able to.

It depends what competition you are looking at. Playing well in the Bundesliga when everybody plays bad in the Bundesliga is not a big thing I guess. But playing well in the Champions League against opponents is what really counts for them and so far they have lost big time against Barcelona and against Aston Villa. If you take the average of their performances from all competitions, reality is that so far they didn't leave the best impression about their chances in the Champions League. I can't imagine how they would be able to beat Barcelona next time if they met again in the next rounds. They are missing this last piece against good teams when they are in front of their box. Harry Kane isn't doing well either in the Champions League, he is way too slow.
