It is a spectacular match which opposed today the relentless Munich leader to Holstein Kiel, modest penultimate of the German elite.

At home, Bayern took it well, leading a time 4-0 thanks to Musiala (19e), Kane, twice (45e+3, 46e), and Gnabry (54e), with two assists ensured by Olise and Coman. But the Bavarians then relaxed.

It was finally on the 4-3 score that they made the difference, surprised in the last third of the game by Porath (64e) and skrzybski (90e+1, 90e+3).

There is indeed a victory at the key. And a Bayern temporarily flanked nine lengths in advance on Leverkusen at the top of the championship.
