Bayern Munich extended their unbeaten Bundesliga run with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over a resilient St. Pauli, thanks to a moment of brilliance from Jamal Musiala. The young German international secured the win in the 22nd minute, unleashing a powerful 28-meter strike that crashed in off the crossbar, leaving St. Pauli’s keeper, Nikola Vasilj, with no chance.

The promoted hosts, eager to score their first home goal of the season, matched Bayern’s intensity, compactly defending while waiting for counterattacking chances. Bayern controlled 70% of the possession but struggled to create clear-cut chances against the well-organized St. Pauli defense. Musiala came close to doubling the lead in the second half but fired over, while Harry Kane’s late attempt was blocked by Vasilj, preserving the narrow scoreline.

Musiala’s standout performance, which included a 91% pass accuracy and consistent dribbling threats, earned him Player of the Match honors. His decisive goal showcased his technical prowess and kept Bayern five points clear at the top of the table, heading into the international break.

Despite the narrow margin, Bayern’s defensive solidity limited St. Pauli to just one off-target shot, showing their ability to grind out results even against tough opposition. With this win, Bayern now sit atop the Bundesliga standings with 26 points, five ahead of RB Leipzig.
