How the match went

Despite Bayern's dominance, the first half ended goalless in Munich—a partial result that surprised the fans given the Germans’ strong favoritism in the match.

However, the story changed at the start of the second half. Six minutes in, Harry Kane opened the scoring for Bayern, capitalizing on a corner kick from the right side of the attack. The number 9 appeared at the near post, unmarked, to deflect the ball into the net. Three minutes later, from the penalty spot, he scored again to extend the lead.

Soon after, the home team was left with one less player on the field. Defender Kim Min-jae grabbed his opponent, who was breaking away on a counterattack towards goal, received his second yellow card, and was sent off. In the 80th minute, Kane had the chance to score his third goal of the match, again from the penalty spot, but hit the post and missed the shot.
