How it unfolded

The game opened with early intensity, and just six minutes in, Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jobe Bellingham was shown a yellow card for a bad foul, signalling the physical nature of the contest. Bayern Munich took the lead in the 38th minute when Konrad Laimer struck a right-footed shot from the right side of the six-yard box, placing the ball in the bottom right corner to make it 1-0.

The second half began with Bayern’s Josip Stanisic receiving a yellow card for a bad foul in the 53rd minute, but the visitors responded quickly. In the 60th minute, Serhou Guirassy restored parity for Dortmund, firing a left-footed shot from the centre of the box into the bottom left corner; the move was set up by an assist from Carney Chukwuemeka.

Only six minutes later, Bayern reclaimed the advantage. Dayot Upamecano headed a close-range finish in the 66th minute after a corner was met with a precise headed pass from Harry Kane, putting Bayern ahead 2-1. The home side’s Konrad Laimer, who had opened the scoring, was booked again in the 74th minute for a bad foul, receiving his second yellow of the match.

The decisive moment arrived in the dying minutes. From a corner, Konstantinos Karetsas delivered a ball into the box, and Fábio Silva struck a right-footed shot from the right side of the area into the bottom left corner in the 89th minute.
