<p>Bayern Munich's impressive winning streak has officially come to a halt. The team has dominated European football in recent months, achieving 16 consecutive victories, thereby breaking and setting a record for the most wins at the start of a season. However, in their recent match against Union Berlin, the Bayern squad managed only a 2-2 draw in front of 22,012 fans at Die Alte Försterei. Union’s Danilho Doekhi scored both goals for his team (27' & 83'), preventing Bayern from continuing their winning ways.</p>

<p>It seems the relentless schedule may be taking a toll on Bayern Munich. Following matchday 10 in the Bundesliga, they sit second in the league, having covered 1219.9 km, behind only Hoffenheim (1230.9 km). Additionally, Bayern ranks third in the league with 1700 sprints and second with 7024 intensive runs, stats usually associated with teams battling relegation. Vincent Kompany's style of play is notably physical and demanding.</p>
<br>
<p>This was also apparent in the midweek clash against PSG, where Bayern outperformed their opponents even with ten players. However, in the match against Union Berlin, who outdistanced Bayern by over six kilometers, the German champions appeared fatigued. Union head coach Steffen Baumgart commented, "It feels a bit like two lost points. We battled hard and witnessed an entertaining match." Indeed, while Union Berlin delivered an excellent performance, Bayern struggled and appeared less fluid, with a pass completion rate of 88% that fell short of their usual standards.</p>

<h2>Bayern Secures a Draw - Standout Performances from Harry Kane and Luis Díaz</h2>
<br>
<p>"Our first 30 minutes weren't up to standard," Kompany acknowledged. "We were not at our best in the first half, but the last 60 minutes were stronger, albeit against a well-prepared opponent." Fortunately for Bayern, the individual brilliance of Luis Díaz and Harry Kane allowed them to salvage a point. Díaz dazzled with a remarkable goal from the byline following an exquisite one-two with Josip Stanišić (38'). "We needed that moment from him," Kompany praised. "Such talent is crucial for our objectives." Later, in stoppage time, Kane scored a brilliant header from a perfect cross by Tom Bischof, marking his 13th goal in ten Bundesliga matches and 26th in 22 games across all competitions. His current form is undoubtedly remarkable.</p>

<br>
<p>Bayern’s record streak of 16 games to start the season sets a new milestone, surpassing the previous record of 13 held by AC Milan from the 1992/93 season. How does Bayern’s accomplishment compare to other top clubs across Europe's elite leagues? Aside from AC Milan, the third-longest winning streak at the beginning of a season in the top five European leagues consists of 11 wins—achieved by Borussia Dortmund in 2015/16, and Real Madrid in both 1968/69 and 1961/62. Furthermore, four teams have begun their seasons with 10 wins: Juventus in 2018/19, Manchester City in 2016/17, AS Roma in 2013/14, and Hamburger SV in 2005/06.</p>
