Munich, September 1

A Harry Kane penalty and a second-half goal by Thomas Muller were enough to give Bayern Munich all three points in the Bundesliga as they beat Freiburg 2-0 and new head coach Vincent Kompany continued his winning start.

The victory marked Kompany’s first win at home, with Bayern having won 3-2 at VfL Wolfsburg in their Bundesliga opener last weekend.

German champions Bayer Leverkusen lost a Bundesliga game for the first time in 15 months when Lois Openda scored twice in a 3-2 comeback win for Leipzig. Leverkusen lost to a German opponent for the first time since May 2023 after 35 Bundesliga games unbeaten.

“It’s hard, it’s bitter,” coach Xabi Alonso said. “I don’t think we deserved to lose.” — Agencies

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
