The poster did not disappoint. Bayern Munich won the matchday 1 match 4-3 against Manchester United. The visitors lost goalkeeper André Onana after a huge mistake with the opening goal.
Bayern Munich – Manchester United in a nutshell:
Key moment (1): Manchester United is dominant and causes Bayern Munich problems, until André Onana makes a mistake on the half hour and puts his team behind. Immediately after the 1-0, the second goal follows, a double blow that they would not get from Man United.
Key moment (2): In the second half United can score the connecting goal up to 3 times, but just as many times it is immediately canceled out. It did result in a crazy final phase.
Man of the Match: He didn’t get on the scoreboard today, but Jamal Musiala was a scourge for the United defense in the second half. His dribbling and passing often deserved a better fate.
Striking: Bayern Munich is now undefeated in the Champions League for 35 group matches. Of those 35 matches, it also won another 32.
With FC Bayern Munich-Manchester United we already had a major poster on matchday 1. Not only on paper, but also on the field, it would ultimately be a clash to die for.
Surprisingly enough, it was the British – who were seriously on their way in the Premier League – who started the game sharpest. A dangerous cross from Christian Eriksen was just tapped away at the far post, the Dane blasted the giant chance at goalkeeper Ulreich in the restart.
Even after that, the biggest danger would come from Manchester United. Until minute 28 anyway. A non-existent Bayern then hits Onana’s cage for the first time. Leroy Sané’s attempt seems harmless, but Onana blunders and lets the ball slip under her: 1-0.

5 minutes of excitement
Less than 5 minutes later the 2-0 is already on the board. After a nice dribble, Jamal Musiala puts the ball back to Serge Gnabry, the latter slams it home in no time.
Two tries, two goals. So speaking of efficiency. But we would soon get tension again in the second half. After a triangle around Bayern’s 16, Hojlund does not hesitate. He hits the 2-1 against the ropes.
Just as quickly, however, the tension would disappear again. Upamecano wants to head on a corner kick, but his attempt is blocked by Eriksen’s arm. After a visit to the VAR screen, the ball hits the spot. A piece of cake for Harry Kane.

Crazy lock
The final blow for United, because after the 3-1 the heads go down. Although they don’t know yet that a spectacular ending awaits them. After some wrangling, the ball falls at Casemiro’s foot in minute 88. The Brazilian is already against the turf, but is still able to make it 3-2.
Real tension again this time? No. A few minutes later Tel signs for the 4-2. Once again, United’s tying goal is wiped away within a few minutes.
Still, Casemiro can’t get enough of it. In the very last seconds he heads in a hard free kick from Bruno Fernandes. 4-3, so. But it would no longer earn Manchester United any points.
