Nicolas Jackson Celebrates First Bayern Munich Goal in 5-1 Champions League Victory over Pafos

Bayern Munich produced a commanding display in the Champions League, sweeping aside Cypriot outfit FC Pafos with a 5-1 win. Harry Kane struck twice, while Raphaël Guerreiro, Michael Olise and Nicolas Jackson were also on the scoresheet as the Bavarians cruised to victory.

For Jackson, the night was particularly memorable as he netted his first goal for the German champions. The Senegalese forward, who joined Bayern earlier this year, expressed his delight after finally opening his account.

“It wasn’t easy, but we played a very good game and worked hard,” Jackson told reporters, with quotes shared by @iMiaSanMia. “I’m very happy to score my first goal for the club. I’m still getting back to full fitness because I hadn’t played and trained alone for two months. I’m working hard every day.”

The 24-year-old kept his comments about his long-term future cautious, but he made it clear how much he is enjoying life in Munich.

“I’m very happy here, everyone welcomed me very well. I feel at home. We’ll see what the future brings,” he added.

The trip to Cyprus had been viewed as a potential challenge, with Pafos earning a reputation for being difficult opponents on home soil. Yet Bayern quickly imposed themselves, dominating possession and attacking with intent throughout. Kane’s brace underlined his clinical form, while the contributions of Guerreiro, Olise and Jackson highlighted the depth of Bayern’s attacking options.

The result ensures Bayern return to Munich in buoyant mood, reaffirming their status as one of the competition’s strongest contenders.
