How Bayern Took Control In Stuttgart

For the first hour this was not a walkover.

11′ 0-1: Konrad Laimer flicked in a Michael Olise cross with a clever finish past Alexander Nübel.
Stuttgart pressed well, created chances, and had a Nikolas Nartey header ruled out for offside just before half-time.

At 1-0 the hosts were still in the match. Then Vincent Kompany went to his bench.

“Not used to it”: Kane on super-sub role

Kane rarely sits on the bench when fit, so this Kane hat trick as a substitute felt strange even for him.

After the match he admitted the role is new:

“It is something I am not used to, but I did it a couple of times this season. The boss wanted to keep me fresh and save energy.”

He also gave credit to his teammates:

“The boys did a great job in the first 60 minutes, so we could exploit the space when we came on.”

That fits what the pitch showed. Stuttgart pressed hard early, then faded. When a fresh Bayern Munich striker like Kane arrives against a back line that has already chased Laimer and Olise for an hour, there is only one likely outcome.

Kompany’s plan and Bayern’s title push

Vincent Kompany explained that resting his main scorer was part of a wider plan. Bayern had just beaten Union Berlin in the German Cup and face Sporting in the Champions League next.

He wanted:

Rotation after a busy run
A burst of quality from the bench if the match stayed close
Fresh legs from Kane, Stanišić and others against a tired Stuttgart side

It worked perfectly. Once the first Kane hat trick goal went in, Bayern looked like they had a spare gear that Stuttgart could never match.

The 5-0 win:

Extends Bayern’s unbeaten Bundesliga run to 13 games
Pushes their lead at the top of the table to around 11 points over RB Leipzig
Keeps confidence high before the Champions League tie against Sporting

What this result means for Stuttgart

From Stuttgart’s side, the scoreline hurts more than the performance.

They pressed well early, created chances, and stayed in the game at 1-0. The turning points were:

The first Kane hat trick strike from range
The Lorenz Assignon red card and penalty
The mental drop once it went to 3-0 and 4-0

Now they need a quick reset before facing Maccabi Tel Aviv in the Europa League.

Big picture: Kane hat trick keeps Bayern in full control

This Kane hat trick in Stuttgart reinforces a simple reality:

Bayern Munich have depth, rhythm and a clear idea under Kompany.
Harry Kane goals arrive in every situation: as a starter, as a sub, from range, from the spot, and from close range on crosses.
With this version of Bayern and this version of Kane, the Bundesliga title race already leans heavily toward Munich.

For neutral fans it was another clinic. For defenders across Germany, it was a reminder that even when Kane starts on the bench, the hardest part of the game might still be waiting in the second half.
