RB Leipzig didn't win a competitive game for the first time this season, but they defended first place in the league. Coach Julian Nagelsmann's team will go into the first Champions League game on Tuesday at Benfica Lisbon (21.00 p.m./Sky) stronger. Bayern will meet Red Star Belgrade at home on Wednesday (21.00 p.m./Sky). Alaba was injured while warming up The guests from Munich had to do without David Alaba for a short time, who suffered a muscle injury to his adductors during the warm-up. Jerome Boateng made his first appearance of the season for the Austrian. Bayern's new world star Philippe Coutinho was only on the bench until the 88th minute because he was not XNUMX percent fit after playing for the Brazilian national team. Thomas Müller started for him in the central, attacking midfield.

The 42.146 spectators experienced a turbulent start. Müller initially cleverly pulled the strings at headquarters and sent Lewandowski on his way after a mistake by Lukas Klostermann. The Pole didn't miss the chance and made it 1-0. A minute later, Klostermann missed when he shot past the goal completely unmarked. Lewandowski had further chances to make it 2-0 (12th/15th).

Bayern presented themselves with a lot of running width and extremely confident passes, Leipzig perhaps also seemed nervous because of the early goal, allowed themselves bad passes and lost important running duels. As a result, Bayern cleverly kept the ball in their own ranks, Leipzig refrained from power pressing, but only rarely got the ball.

Shortly before the break, two penalty decisions caused excitement. After Stegemann initially took back the penalty for Bayern based on video evidence as a result of an attack by Marcel Sabitzer on Lucas Hernandez, he somewhat fortunately decided on the penalty in Leipzig's favor after a duel between Yussuf Poulsen and Hernandez. Forsberg didn't miss the chance. After halftime, Leipzig got stronger In the second half, Nagelsmann left the unlucky Klostermann out, and Leipzig finally found an offense. The hosts got stronger and stronger, Neuer was able to fend off a flutter ball from Sabitzer with a great reaction (60th). A real top game developed with chances on both sides. Munich's star player Kingsley Coman (78th) was unlucky with a deflected shot that hit the post. RB striker Timo Werner (89th) failed to score against Manuel Neuer.
