Overview
- Bayern went 2-0 up through Harry Kane’s 16th-minute penalty and a Michael Olise finish soon after halftime before Wehen captain Fatih Kaya scored twice to level the tie.
- Kane had a 76th-minute penalty saved by goalkeeper Florian Stritzel, then rose to head in Josip Stanisic’s cross deep into added time for the 3-2 winner.
- The saved effort ended Kane’s run of 31 consecutive penalties converted in competitive matches since the 2022 World Cup and was his first miss for Bayern.
- With no VAR in the DFB-Pokal, an earlier Bayern handball appeal was not reviewed.
- The result secured passage to round two yet underscored Bayern’s recent tendency to stumble in this competition following multiple early exits since their 2020 triumph.
