Overview

  • Bayern led through a Harry Kane penalty and a Michael Olise strike before Fatih Kaya scored twice for Wehen; Kane then missed a second penalty but headed the 90+4 winner.
  • Vincent Kompany rotated six starters as suspended Manuel Neuer was replaced by Jonas Urbig and 17-year-old Lennart Karl made his first competitive start.
  • Wiesbaden goalkeeper Florian Stritzel delivered a standout performance, including saving Kane’s 76th-minute spot kick, and an early handball shout went unreviewed because VAR is not used in round one.
  • Joshua Kimmich and sporting director Christoph Freund lamented surrendering a 2-0 lead, while Kompany labeled the lapse a “blackout” and praised the team’s composure to finish the job.
  • Club executives are working on an attacking loan signing according to reports, with talks said to center on Chelsea’s Nicolas Jackson, as Bayern turn quickly to Saturday’s league trip to Augsburg.
