The hit between Bayern and Barcelona offered a great return for striker Robert Lewandowski, who left the Bavarian team after eight years before the season. The star gunner had two great chances in the first half and Barcelona were the better team, but after the break the roles turned.
Bayern decided with two goals in the 50th and 54th minute. He first hit a Hernández corner and added the second strike after an individual action by Sané. After an hour of play, Pedri hit the post, but the Catalans did not dramatize the game anymore. Bayern beat Barcelona for the fifth time in a row.

Schick and Hložek started together in the starting line-up for the second time in a row, and shortly after the break both could open the scoring. First, Schick hit the crossbar and Hložek headed the ball into the post from the subsequent stop. However, Leverkusen finally got their first home win of the season at the fourth attempt. In the 84th minute, Andrich made the decision, and immediately Diaba added a safety. Hložek was replaced in the 69th minute, Schick a minute before the end of regular time.
