Luis Diaz came closest to putting Bayern in front when he spurned one-on-one chances either side of half-time. First, he shanked a shot wide with only Loris Karius to beat, before he saw a tame chip over the goalkeeper cleared well before it reached the goalline. After opening the season with a thumping 5-1 win against VfB Stuttgart and a 4-1 victory over second-tier side Osnabruck in the DFB Pokal, Bayern manager Vincent Kompany opted to rotate his side. Harry Kane and Michael Olise watched from the bench as Bayern dominated possession, but did little with it in a disjointed first-half performance. England captain Kane come on at the break, but it was not until the introductions of Olise and Jamal Musiala with 35 minutes remaining that Bayern began to ramp up the pressure. Musiala was included in the squad for first time this season after suffering seizures during two pre-season matches. Bayern's Konrad Laimer sliced into the side netting from close range, before Kane forced Karius into a stunning fingertip save with a late drive destined for the top corner. Bayern could not penetrate a compact and disciplined defence as Schalke held on to collect their first point of the season. This was Kane's 96th Bundesliga appearance, and he needs two more goals to reach 100 in the competition. The record for the fewest matches to reach a century is 129. Kane began the day having scored against all 20 teams he had faced in the Bundesliga, and has now netted against 20 out of 21. It is the first time in 67 Bundesliga matchdays - almost two years - that Bayern will not finish on top of the table. Bayern host Bodo/Glimt in their opening Champions League game on Thursday before travelling to Bundesliga newcomers Elversberg on 13 September.

Lautaro Martinez scored twice for the hosts - including a 90th minute winner - either side of a Marcus Thuram header. Inter were two behind when Napoli scored twice in three minutes at the start of the second half. Napoli's second came in strange circumstances when the Inter defence switched off, assuming a loose ball was going out of play. It was kept in and played to Rasmus Hojlund, who swept a shot into the far corner. But Inter - who have won their opening three league matches of the season - recovered and are still unbeaten at home in Serie A since November 2025. Napoli, who finished last season 11 points behind Inter, have lost back to back Serie A games following a home loss to Como last weekend. After a goalless first half, Napoli caught Inter cold with a one-two punch. On 50 minutes, Max Allegri's team took the lead when Matteo Politano scored into the bottom corner at the second time of asking after his first effort was blocked. Then three minutes later, no Inter players were paying attention when the ball appeared to be heading for a throw in. But it stopped short of the sideline and was picked up by Giovanni Di Lorenzo, who pulled it back to Hojlund on the edge of the area. Hojlund made a yard of space away from Inter midfielder Curtis Jones, and curled into the far corner for his second goal in as many league matches. England international Jones came on at half-time for his second appearance since joining from Liverpool in the summer - and was instrumental in driving Inter to come back and win. Inter got one back just three minutes later, when Federico Dimarco brilliantly kept in an overhit cross. His first-time pull-back was turned home by Martinez from close range. Thuram came close to an equaliser when he struck the post, but with eight minutes to play the Frenchman did get his goal with a header planted into the right-hand corner. And the victory was earned in remarkable circumstances as Martinez bundled in from close range before celebrating wildly with home fans at San Siro. While Jones was brought on, fellow England player John Stones was an unused sub. Another English summer signing, Djed Spence, was not in the squad for the third successive Serie A match as he recovers from a fitness issue.

Manchester City highlighted their early season credentials by maintaining their 100% winning record after three Premier League games, but had to cling on to leave newly promoted Coventry still searching for their first point of the campaign. The result was ultimately a satisfying one for City manager Enzo Maresca after giving debuts to Iliman Ndiaye and £125m signing Enzo Fernandez, with the Argentine drafted in minutes before kick-off after Nico O'Reilly sustained an injury in the warm-up. City's star striker Erling Haaland was the match-winner, powerfully heading home the only goal of the afternoon after Antoine Semenyo dug out a cross to the far post. Fernandez played a key part in the goal with a slide-rule pass to the Ghanaian. On another day, Norway striker Haaland could have had a hat-trick. He had a thumping effort pushed away by visiting goalkeeper Carl Rushworth and another close-range strike in the second half ruled out for offside. Rayan Cherki turned inside and struck against the foot of a post after being set up by Fernandez, but City were thankful to goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, who made a string of saves. The Italy captain kept out Jack Rudoni's diving header at the far post and Loum Tchaouna's low strike with a full-length save, and stood tall to deny substitute Ellis Simms late on. Frank Lampard's men should have gone ahead when Taiwo Awoniyi picked up a loose pass from Semenyo and ran through on goal, but the Nigerian struck wide to leave Coventry without a goal this season.

Liverpool have completed the signing of France forward Bradley Barcola from Paris St-Germain for a fee worth up to £123m. PSG initially valued the 23-year-old at £145m, but Liverpool will pay an initial £106m plus £17m in potential add-ons. Barcola has signed a five-year contract to become the fifth new arrival at Anfield this summer, following the signings of winger Victor Munoz and defenders Jeremy Jacquet, Ronald Araujo and Ifeanyi Ndukwe. "It took a long time but I'm really happy today to be able to play for Liverpool and all I want is to be on the pitch and be able to play," Barcola said. "I hope to achieve very big things. First of all, winning the Premier League - it's one of my biggest dreams in my life. "It is to do that and to stay in this team in the long term - that's why I signed a long contract – and I hope I can do it." Barcola, who will wear the number 29 shirt at Anfield, prefers to play on the left wing but can operate across the forward line. The France international will add depth to Andoni Iraola's squad following the departure of Mohamed Salah, the long-term injury absence of Hugo Ekitike, and the potential sale of Cody Gakpo. Last season, Barcola scored 13 goals and provided seven assists in 49 games in all competitions for PSG. He featured in all eight of France's games at the 2026 World Cup, scoring three goals as Les Bleus reached the third-place play-off. Barcola joined PSG from Lyon in 2023 for a reported £38.5m and won three Ligue 1 titles, two Champions Leagues, the French Cup twice, the Uefa Super Cup and the Fifa Intercontinental Cup. The fee Liverpool have agreed to pay includes covering a solidarity payment PSG owe Lyon as part of the deal that took Barcola to Paris three years ago.

Brazil's Raphinha is the first player to score five goals in the first three La Liga games of a season since Lionel Messi for Barcelona in 2017, while 19-year-old Lamine Yamal's double took him past 50 goals for the club. Barcelona's early games have come in the space of nine days, crammed in after starting late because of the amount of World Cup players in their squad. Rayo actually led Monday's game through Sergio Camello's tidy first-time effort, but Raphinha levelled when he showed good footwork before slotting into the bottom corner. Lamine Yamal blasted a piledriver in from just inside the box to put Barca ahead. Florian Lejeune then turned fellow former Newcastle player Anthony Gordon's cross into his own net. Camello's header gave Rayo hope again, before England forward Gordon's backheel found Raphinha to make it 4-2. Spain teenager Lamine Yamal added a fifth in injury time - his 51st goal for Barcelona - with a cushioned effort into the bottom corner from 20 yards. Barcelona and Real Madrid are the only two teams on nine points from three games, while Rayo Vallecano have just one point.
