Overview

• Bayern overturned an early deficit, with Momoko Tanikawa leveling in first-half stoppage time before four second-half goals completed the win.
• Sandra Maria Jessen put Köln ahead from a corner, but Bayern took control after the break through Magdalena Eriksson, Georgia Stanway, Stine Ballisager and a Pernille Harder penalty.
• Lena Oberdorf exited with a right-knee issue after a collision with Adriana Achcińska, leaving bandaged and supported off following her recent return from a July 2024 cruciate and medial ligament injury.
• The result preserves Bayern’s unbeaten league run and extends their lead at the top to five points on a provisional basis, taking the streak to 23 Bundesliga matches without defeat.
• The win continues Bayern’s strong spell that includes a 3-1 victory over Wolfsburg and a 2-1 Champions League success against Juventus.
