Bayern beat Dortmund to retain Supercup | OneFootball

FC Bayern beat Borussia Dortmund 2-1 to clinch the 2026 Franz Beckenbauer Supercup. Nathaniel Brown and Michael Olise scored for Bayern before half-time. Fábio Silva pulled one back with a quarter-hour to go, but Ramy Bensebaini saw a red card in the closing stages and Munich went on to retain the trophy and seal the first title of the season.

Munich started with Manuel Neuer in goal and Josip Stanišić, Jonathan Tah, Minjae Kim and Konrad Laimer in defence. Joshua Kimmich and Aleksandar Pavlović anchored a midfield featuring Olise, Brown and Luis Díaz, with Harry Kane up front. Alphonso Davies, Ismael Saibari and Tom Bischof took over from Stanišić, Brown and Díaz in the second half.

First-half dominance

The two sides spent the first ten minutes feeling each other out before Bayern asserted their authority. Dortmund keeper Gregor Kobel denied Díaz and Kane, but Munich took the lead when Kimmich’s long ball found Olise, who laid off for Brown to slot home on his competitive debut.

Olise saw a shot deflected behind and Stanišić aimed too high. Kobel made a fine save against Díaz before Julian Ryerson’s cross found the back of the net, but the goal was chalked off for offside. Brown and Olise miscued, but the latter doubled the lead shortly before half-time, beating Kobel on the angle.

Close finish

It was a more balanced affair after the restart. Giannis Konstantelias saw a volley deflected behind and Konstantinos Karetsas’ deflected shot forced a strong save from Neuer as BVB recorded their first attempts of the game. Kane fired over before clear-cut chances were at a premium for a spell.

Silva crowned fine BVB interplay to pull one back with 15 minutes remaining. Bayern went looking for a reply and Kane fired inches wide before Laimer miscued. Kobel proved equal to a Pavlović effort and saved from Olise. Neuer soon lost the ball to Jobe Bellingham but clawed it away. Bensebaini was given his marching orders for a challenge on Saibari in the closing minutes. Dortmund had a huge chance to level when Maximilian Beier had only Neuer to beat but blasted over, as Bayern won their 12th Supercup.

Vincent Kompany’s team will be back in action next Friday when they entertain VfB Stuttgart in the Bundesliga opening fixture.
