Bayern dominated from the start, scoring seven goals in each half to kick off their preparations for the 2024/25 season on a high note, per Bavarian Football Works.

Despite Rottach-Egern's valiant defence and exceptional goalkeeping from Mario Weiss in the early stages, the floodgates opened when 17-year-old Adin Licina netted the first goal for Bayern.

Licina quickly doubled the lead within a minute, followed by a quickfire brace from Mathys Tel, putting the game out of reach for the lower-tier side.

Rottach-Egern's Tobias Schlichtner managed a consolation goal, but Bayern soon resumed their dominance with goals from Noussair Mazraoui and Raphael Guerreiro sandwiched in between Tel's hattrick.

Kompany rotated his entire lineup in the second half, yet Bayern's relentless attack continued.

Arijon Ibrahimovic, another academy talent, started the second half's onslaught in the 56th minute.

Australian wonderkid Nestroy Irankunda then added two quick goals.
