So, what was it again about the DFB-Pokal and its very own rules?

In these very minutes, newly promoted second-division side VfL Osnabrück are taking on mighty Bayern Munich in the first round of the cup.

And even though Vincent Kompany did not make too many experiments with his lineup at the Bremer Brücke (Díaz, Olise and Kane all started), the underdog raced into a 1-0 lead!

Backed by a loud home crowd, the Purple-Whites produced the first major and wildly celebrated moment after just a few minutes.

A long ball from the hosts was followed by a rushed challenge from Tah, who lost the duel with striker Robin Meißner. He stayed ice-cool and let fly from 30 meters — and what a strike it was! The ball flew perfectly into the top-right corner, Urbig had no chance, and the underdogs were ahead thanks to an absolute wonder goal (5').

It was quite a start, and one many had not expected — one that electrified both the crowd and the players out on the pitch.

Enough for the huge upset to still stand after 90 or even 120 minutes?

Right now, the answer is: probably not. Around ten minutes later, Harry Kane had the response ready and slotted home for 1-1 (18'), before Tim Bischof pounced on a rebound six minutes later to give Bayern their first lead of the day.

In the second half, Olise made it 3-1 with a delicate chip (73').

Then in the 86th minute, Kane added a fourth from the penalty spot to make it 4-1.
