First Impressions and Notable Points
- At the start, the match seemed promising, but Bayern Munich’s performance in their final home game of the season left something to be desired. Despite winning, they only managed to score two goals, and Kim Min-jae left the field due to an injury. It has been a lackluster season for fans.
- Lovro Zvonarek’s debut goal was a highlight. Young players like him should have been given more opportunities earlier in the season, especially after it became clear that Bayern couldn’t catch up with Leverkusen in the league standings.
- Bayern Munich tends to struggle in the last 20 minutes of games, leading to chaotic play with turnovers and ineffective attacks. The team’s game management has been subpar this season, which also played a role in their loss to Real Madrid.

Kickoff: Game is underway!
One hour until kickoff: Lineups are out! The formation appears to be 4-2-3-1, with several new faces in the Bayern Munich lineup. Notably, Bryan Zaragoza starts along with Lovro Zvonarek. Mathys Tel and Thomas Müller are likely leading the attack, supported by Leon Goretzka and Aleksandar Pavlović in midfield. Dayot Upamecano is back in the starting XI alongside Kim Min-jae. Joshua Kimmich, Alphonso Davies, and Manuel Neuer complete the lineup.
Bayern Munich fans are feeling down. Even a remarkable performance like scoring five goals in nine minutes by Harry Kane (hypothetical due to injury) wouldn’t lift spirits after the disappointing end to the season.
However, the fans continue to support the team, hoping for exciting moments.
It’s time for Bayern.
