Before facing Benfica again, Enzo Fernández struggles at Bayern - Chelsea | OneFootball

Bayern Munich defeated Chelsea 3-1 in the first round of the Champions League. Enzo Fernández, former Benfica player, had a very tough night at the Allianz Arena, in what was the last European match before meeting the reds again.

The match started somewhat divided, despite the Bavarian onslaught. The score was opened at the 20-minute mark, due to an unfortunate move by Trevoh Chalobah, who put the ball into his own net. At 27', Harry Kane increased the German advantage from a penalty, and Cole Palmer managed to reduce the lead for the blues (29').

In the second half, Chelsea tried to threaten Manuel Neuer's goal, but Bayern managed to take control of the game and establish a period of dominance. At 63 minutes, Kane took advantage of a pass from Serge Gnabry to score his second goal and make the final score 3-1.

With this victory, Bayern is now third in the league phase of UEFA's millionaire competition. PSG - due to goal difference - and Union St. Gilloise and Bayern close the podium. Chelsea now occupies the 32nd of the 26 positions in the table. Benfica is 29th, after being defeated by Qarabag.
