Group A
Bayern Munich 0-2 Bordeaux -- A frustrating home loss for the Germans will add some more heat to
coach Louis Van Gaal's seat. Bayern will likely miss out of the round of 16 thanks to goals from
Yoann Gourcuff and Marouane Chamakh. The French team advanced.
Maccabi Haifa 0-1 Juventus -- The Italian side was riddled with injuries, but only needed a 45th
minute goal from Camoranesi for the road win.

Media criticism, internal criticism, huge injury concerns, a long winless streak, and the list
goes on. All the aforementioned obstacles severely marred the opening of the current season for
German Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich. In September, such was the state of affairs at Allianz
Arena that new manager Louis van Gaal appeared to be on his way out of the Bavarian club sooner
rather than later.

Matchday 3 sees some crucial matchups but none may be more important at this stage than the
Standard Liege Olympiacos fixture. Arsenal look to be a lock for top spot in Group H but second
place is wide open. A win today for Olympiacos would put them in the driver's seat.
If they lose at home today against Arsenal, last season's Eredivise champions AZ Alkmaar could
be done for.

In the past Bayern's traditional visit of Munich's Oktoberfest was a way of celebrating
humorless league dominance with one Maß after the other. In recent years it has been more about
putting a good face on matters and drowning your sorrow in alcohol. At least the players now know,
what it feels like signing for 1860 Munich.
