The story, neutrally told

Mixed · 2Bayern Munich beat second-tier Magdeburg 6-1 in the German Cup second round on Wednesday 28 October, with Harry Kane left on the bench. Mixed · 2Kane had won the Ballon d'Or on Monday, becoming the first English player to do so since Michael Owen in 2001. He was rested two days later as the club managed his workload before a demanding run of domestic and European fixtures. Left · 1Al Jazeera added that Kane was the first Bayern player to win the award in 45 years and the first at a German club since 1996. It said he received a guard of honour before kick-off at the Allianz Arena.

Mixed · 2Michael Olise scored twice, either side of a goal from Ismael Saibari. Alphonso Davies and Nathaniel Brown then struck within three minutes of each other late in the second half, and teenager David Santos-Daiber scored the sixth in stoppage time. Mixed · 2Bayern were troubled in the first half, when Magdeburg briefly equalised and hit the post on the stroke of half-time. The visitors could not keep up with Bayern's tempo after the break. Centre · 1Assistant coach Aaron Danks was on the bench for the second successive match after head coach Vincent Kompany collapsed during a training session last week.

Left · 1Board member for sport Max Eberl said on Wednesday that Kompany had been discharged from hospital. He told broadcaster ARD that a meningeal irritation caused the collapse on Friday and that Kompany would rest and take medication. Eberl said he was certain Kompany would soon be back on the touchline. Left · 1No return date has been set, and Kompany will resume duties only after medical clearance. Al Jazeera said he had been nursing a virus and had missed some training sessions before the collapse. Danks has been in charge since then, including in Sunday's 3-1 win at Freiburg. Mixed · 2Bayern lead the Bundesliga title race and face Borussia Dortmund in the Klassiker on Saturday. They then travel to Spain to play Atletico Madrid in the Champions League next week. Al Jazeera said the two Bundesliga sides are level on points and that Kane is set to be celebrated again by home fans.

Every sentence links to the reporting it rests on. The pill in front of each says where its sources sit: Left, Centre or Right when one side supplies at least half of them, Mixed when they are evenly split. The number is how many outlets it cites.
