'Monster' Kim Min-jae fired a scoring shot over the Lunar New Year holiday.

Bayern Munich won 2-1 in the 19th round of the German Bundesliga in the 2024-2025 season at Europa Park Stadium in Freiburg, Germany on the 26th (Korea time). Bayern, which won five consecutive games with the victory, scored 15 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss, 48 points, widening the gap between Leipzig and second-place Leverkusen (42 points). Freiburg remained at 27 points and fell to 10th place.

Kim Min-jae was by far at the center of Bayern's victory. In fact, it was unclear whether Kim Min-jae would start or not. He made a fatal mistake in Game 7 of the European Champions League phase against Feyenoord on the 23rd. In the 21st minute of the first half, he made a mistake in the process of trying to break a long pass and provided an excuse for the first goal. Kim Min-jae was replaced in the 17th minute of the second half.

After the game, a bitter sound came out toward Kim Min-jae. Bild criticized 'Kim Min-jae made a mistake and missed the ball in the first goal scene. TZ gave the lowest rating of five points at all. The German media, which was critical of Kim Min-jae, raised their voices as if they had been waiting for him, saying, `We should use Eric Dier without Kim Min-jae.'

Coach Bang Sang Kompany said "I've been in Germany for six months, and I've been asked a lot about certain players. It's that one person should take responsibility. Whenever that happens, I say everyone should protect each other, not one responsibility. It's the responsibility of the whole team. Everyone from the front-line striker to the last defense is equally responsible," he said, covering Kim Min-jae. And Kompany once again gave trust to Kim Min-jae.

Kim Min-jae, who started, showed a sharp break. According to soccer statistics company Footmob, Kim Min-jae defended the backside by recording eight recoveries (pass blocking or acquiring loose balls), two interceptions, and two tackles. He also shone in the attack. He recorded 117 pass successes, 96% pass success rate, and one key pass. He even scored a goal. In the 9th minute of the second half, Jojua Kimmich's corner kick was connected with a powerful header to score. Bayern gave up a comeback goal and this goal became the winning goal.

It was his third goal of the season. Kim Min-jae scored his first league goal against Frankfurt on October 7 last year. Unfortunately, Frankfurt was the opponent for the second goal of the league. Kim Min-jae, who also scored in the European Champions League, scored his third goal this season.

Of course, I got the highest rating. Footmob was named the Most Valuable Player (MOM), giving him 8.6 points, the highest in Bayern. HuscoreDcom also gave Kim Min-jae the highest rating of 7.70. Sopa Score gave him 7.9, the second-highest score after Kimihi.

German local media also praised it. Germany's Spox scored with Kim Min-jae's header. Bayern has erased some of the pain of the last European Champions League. He is running for the Bundesliga championship. The German version of 90MIN, which specializes in soccer, also explained that Bayern widened the gap with Kim Min-jae's goal.

However, the billionaire continued on this day. Germany's TZ gave him a rating of 3 points, saying, "'The header winning goal was good in the corner kick situation, but the opponent's positioning of the comeback goal was disappointing'. It was the same rating as Leon Goretzka, who did not show much performance due to injury.

Bayern played 4-2-3-1 on the day. Harry Kane was on the one-top, and Serge Gnabry, Jamal Musiala and Leroy You were on the second line. Goretzka-Alexandar Pavlovic worked in the midfield. The four-bag was built by Rafael Geheiro-Kim Min-jae-Eric Dyer-Kim Mi-hi. Manuel Neuer defended the goal.

The home team Freiburg also faced off 4-2-3-1. Lucas Wheeler was at the forefront, and Doan Ritz, Merlin Roell and Ehrendingch were below. The third line was built by Maximilian Egestein and Nicholas Höffler. Fourbacks consisted of Lucas Quibler-Philippe Linhardt-Max Rosenfelder-Jordi Makengo. The goalkeeper's gloves were worn by Noah Atubolu.

Kim Min-jae's toes flashed from the beginning of the first half. In the 8th minute of the first half, Kim Min-jae's long pass opened the way for offense. Gnabry, who received Kim Min-jae's pass, caught it, and Geheiro finished the ball he gave away with a cross. Unfortunately, it did not touch the bodies of Bayern players who rushed to the center.

13 min Bayern missed a disappointing chance. Musiala, who received Kim Min-jae's forward pass in front of the penalty box arc, attempted a strong shot. The ball headed to the corner hit the post.

Bayern, riding the flow, scored the first goal. Kane was the main character. Kane caught the ball that Dyer pushed from the right to the center in the 15th minute. Kane fired a powerful right footed shot after beating a defender with a brilliant turn. It was scored as it was. It was Kane's first goal in eight games after being silent after failing to score a field goal for nearly two months. Kane was delighted with a big smile.

Kane scored his 17th goal in the Bundesliga. He continued to lead the scoring. As Omar Marmusi (15 goals), the second-ranked scorer, recently confirmed his transfer to Manchester City from Frankfurt, he occupied an advantageous position to become the top scorer for the second consecutive time. The gap with third-ranked Patrik Shik (13 goals, Leverkusen) is four goals.

Kim Min-jae kept the lead with a strong defense. There is a variable in Bayern. 40 min Goretzka is down with an injury. Instead, Josip Stanisic was put in. The first half ended with Bayern's 1-0 lead.

It was Kim Min-jae who gave a smile to Bayern, which had an unstable lead. Kim Min-jae finished Kim Mi-hi's corner kick with a header in the 9th minute of the second half. It was a great scene from the near post, followed by a great move and a great header.

Kim Min-jae, who showed his best performance in attack, blocked Freiburg's attack development with a sharp tackle in the 11th minute, and overwhelmed Doan in the air in the 17th minute, showing his best performance in defense.

Freiburg scored one goal back. Ginter finished the ball from the corner in the 24th minute. The goalkeeper Neuer flew to such a good course that he couldn't even react.

Since then, there has been a tense trend. Bayern sealed the victory by blocking the last attack. In the extra time of the second half, he lowered the ball to the center of the Bayern box with a header, and Gregorich's shot continued. Fortunately, he headed to the side of the net. It was the result of Kim Min-jae defending the opponent's striker until the end without losing his concentration. In the end, Bayern won 2-1.

Bayern will play Slovan Bratislava in the eighth European Champions League phase at its home stadium, Allianz Arena, at 5 a.m. on the 30th. Bayern currently ranks 15th out of 36 teams with 12 points. In order to win a direct ticket to the round of 16, which will be given to the top eight teams, they need to win a big victory and watch the situation of other stadiums. For now, it is a likely situation to go to the playoffs.
