Bayern Munich 5-0 Bodø/Glimt sets the early Champions League pace
Bayern Munich opened their Champions League campaign with a 5-0 win over Bodø/Glimt, and Jamal Musiala scored in that match on his first start since collapsing twice last month.
That result came in the Champions League roundup carried by BBC Sport, which also listed Como 4-1 Leipzig and Lens 3-2 Slavia Prague on the same opening night. Bayern’s start was the biggest margin of the three verified scorelines.
Vincent Kompany’s Bayern are expected to be in the title mix
Vincent Kompany was the Bayern name attached to the broader title expectation in the same coverage. The framing was simple: Bayern are a club always expected to challenge for the Champions League title.
That makes the 5-0 opening win useful early momentum rather than just a routine result. Musiala’s goal added another notable line to the night after his return to the starting XI.
Opening-night scores across Europe
The verified opening-night context from BBC Sport’s Champions League roundup also included Como 4-1 Leipzig and Lens 3-2 Slavia Prague. Those results sat alongside Bayern’s emphatic win over Bodø/Glimt.
The score-thread picture is straightforward: Bayern’s 5-0 was the standout result in a night that also produced goals at Como and Lens. That gives the opening round an early shape before the league phase settles down.
| Match | Score | Key note |
|---|---|---|
| Bayern Munich vs Bodø/Glimt | 5-0 | Bayern opened their Champions League campaign with a win |
| Como vs Leipzig | 4-1 | Opening-night score from the same Champions League roundup |

PSG’s verified draw picture as defending champions
Paris Saint-Germain are the defending Champions League trophy holders, and the league-phase draw coverage gave them a home clash against Barcelona plus away trips to 2023 winners Manchester City and Europa League winners Tottenham. That detail came in the draw report carried by BBC Sport.
A separate BBC Sport draw report also said PSG will face Manchester City and Aston Villa in the league phase. Those are two verified draw snippets from the same overall coverage, even though they do not present the opponents in exactly the same way.
In the wider European football roundup, Marquinhos scored deep into stoppage time to rescue a draw for PSG. That is the latest verified PSG match note to sit beside the draw details.
