So im rewatching the game, i'll write my analysis here as the game goes for people who are interested.

#FCBRBL
First 18 min Bayern's midfield completely dominated by Leipzig who as expected press high but this time they even sacrificed a striker for a false 9 to hurt Bayern on the flanks and on the counter especially the Nkunku / Pavard duel.

This hurts our CBs ofc.
Martinez too slow and limited and Goretzka a bit lost = Bayern suffering.

18Min GulĂĄcsi tries to build up from behind, Bayern press high with Martinez and win the ball, one of the first times we pressed the Flick way.

We are in a perfect position to score, but where's Pavard ?
Muller obliged to play a risky pass because Pavard is sleeping, loses the ball in a dangerous position, Leipzig on a fast counter Leon alone can't do much, Boateng goes for the challenge but Sule for some reason decided to keep running when the ONLY OPTION was to play the OFFSIDE
Pavard killed the attack by chatting with Nkunku who he clearly wasn't able to stop anyway. Sule defended like an amateur.

Martinez gets injured pressing wrongly here and leaving a Haidara alone in a good position

Sule again unable to play the offside trap, luckily its Kluivert
It should've been 0-2 and simply because Sule can't play the offside trap.

24min Jamal in | Javi did well, did what he could but it was a bit too fast and too tight for him to help offensively, we were very unorganized but he is not responsible for the defensive errors.
Musiala in and the team already looks way more dynamic, He still has some positioning problems as you can see here Boateng is repositioning him but overall he is learning and learning fast. We are way more dangerous and faster when we press.

28 min Beautiful volley from Pavard!
I noticed that Boateng leads the back 4 since Martinez left the pitch, Sule been probably asked to always stay a bit higher than Jerome as Niklas is unable to play the offside trap.
Bayern better between the lines and more organized overall in the build-up/press and Musiala one of the reasons we improved so quickly and the scorer of a magnificent equalizer!
Musiala with a great opportunity here but he goes for the more complicated pass, such a shame as Muller could've set it beautifully for him.
Musiala again 😍 perfectly between the lines, Lewandowski took time to scan the pitch and knows he has time on the ball, Muller with a perfectly timed run, great pass by Coman and of course 2-1 for Bayern!
Oh what a pass by Sabitzer... Not sure you can defend such perfect pass, Sule maybe could've timed his run here but honestly its a perfect team goal.

2-2
The offside trap when Sule isn't the last CB works perfectly fine, he should really work on his tactical awarness and leadership skills... Boateng isn't eternal.
End of the first half.

Musiala best player on the pitch.
Sane still not 100%.
Sule should wake up.
Boateng Alaba very good.
Muller Coman there where it hurts.
Lewandowski Goretzka can do better.
2nd half starts and we already give Leipzig a golden chance to score.

Musiala is way too deep for no reason, leaving the midfield wide open, he also sees Forsberg making the run between the CBs but walk instead of tracking him.

Could've done much much better.
Nagelsmann's plan working perfectly so far, his team playing without any pressure and simply exploiting Bayern's weaknesses.
60min, Leipzig doing well controlling Bayern who relies a lot on Musiala's creativity to create danger in this 2nd half.

I would take Sane off, not yet ready for this type of games.
Forsberg out, probably to keep him fresh for Man utd but what a game he had, absolutely everywhere!

And as expected Sane also out, but happy to have seen him fight hard for 60min, he is still not ready to be a starter but its a step forward
Musiala perfectly reading that one, intercept the ball in a dangerous area, he already knows where to play it and Coman with a "Kimmichesk" cross and Muller to equalize.
Should count for Flick, moving Coman to the right side where he would have more space with Angelino!
Richards rewarded once again, im so happy for him and Costa was a good choice to add pace and danger.
3-3 END!

Musiala Muller did amazing and Coman MOTM.
4-1-4-1 still not convincing me but makes us more flexible and today we played a bit better with it.
___
Leipzig done well overall, Nagelsmann won the battle without much effort and it should never be so easy to outplay Bayern.
Sule/Sane honestly disappointing today, Niklas better in the 2nd half.
Pavard meh.
Alaba did great, Boateng too.
Neuer Goretzka efficient but weren't helped.
Lewandowski can do better but was well marked.
