Match Events

14' GOAL! Bayern 1-0 Frankfurt (Perisic)

Finally, the hosts have the breakthrough, as Can slots in from just inside the area after brilliant combination play from Brandt and Sancho.

27' Coman misses chance

Coman joins Lewandowski in missing an easy chance. Davies uses his speed to break clear down the left and plays in a near-perfect cross for Coman at the back post. However, the forward is unable to help the ball into the net from a few yards out.

69' GOAL! Bayern 1-1 Frankfurt (Da Costa)

Substitute Costa levels things up at the Allianz Arena!! Kamada turns in the box and his scuffed pass falls nicely for Da Costa - on the field for all of three minutes - to curl away from Neuer and into the back of the net.

74' GOAL!Bayern 2-1 Frankfurt (Lewandowski)

The home side restore their lead through Lewandowski's close-range finish. The ball is slipped through for Davies and he in turn squares it to Kimmich. The midfielder is unable to shoot and instead flicks it into the path of Lewandowski to finish. The referee initially rules it out for offside, but VAR overrules the decision as Davies was clearly onside.
