Jamal Musiala: Runner-up Bayern Munich started 2024 with a victory after Jamal Musiala's brace helped the team move 3-0 past 10-men Hoffenheim at the curtain raiser of Bundesliga's 17th round matches.

The Bavarians controlled possession from the starting whistle but lacked in accuracy in the final third against defensively minded Hoffenheim in the opening stages, reports Xinhua.

Bayern had to wait until the 18th minute to break the deadlock with their first clearcut opportunity as Leroy Sane found Musiala, who drilled the ball from tight angle into the far post corner.
