Bayern Munich extended their extraordinary unbeaten start to the 2025-26 Bundesliga season to eight consecutive victories on 25 October 2025, defeating 10-man Borussia Monchengladbach 3-0 at the Borussia-Park in a match where Vincent Kompany’s side were made to work hard before breaking down a resilient Gladbach side with three goals in the space of 17 second-half minutes. The result maintained Bayern’s perfect record in what was one of the most dominant early-season starts in Bundesliga history, and further enhanced Harry Kane’s extraordinary personal contribution to the campaign following his Der Klassiker winner the previous week.
Castrop’s Red Card Opens the Floodgates
Borussia Monchengladbach had defended stubbornly and showed considerable collective resilience for the opening hour of the match, limiting Bayern’s quality to a level that had not been seen in the German champions’ previous seven fixtures. The pivotal moment arrived in the 18th minute when Gladbach’s Jens Castrop was given his marching orders, receiving a red card that forced the home side to defend with ten men for the remaining 72 minutes of the encounter. Despite the numerical disadvantage, Gladbach were still looking to nick an unlikely result from the match until Joshua Kimmich broke the deadlock with his first goal of the campaign in the 64th minute, a strike that released the tension that had built throughout a competitive and hard-fought first period.
Raphael Guerreiro doubled the advantage five minutes later, converting with the composure and technical quality that makes the Portuguese left back such a dangerous attacking contributor in Kompany’s system. Lennart Karl, who had scored his first senior goal for the club just days earlier in the Champions League against Frankfurt, followed up that milestone by grabbing his first Bundesliga goal three minutes before the end to seal the comfortable 3-0 winning margin. It was a victory that sent another powerful message to the rest of the Bundesliga about Bayern’s dominance in the 2025-26 campaign.
