29 minutes: Now the TSG suddenly wants a penalty. Bruun Larsen had beheaded Pavard on the back.

27 minutes: Bayern do what they want with Hoffenheim and Zirkzee looks as if it were the most normal thing in the world for him. Got two big chances in the last two minutes, which he wanted to exploit at the royal level: first a technically demanding lop, which Baumann just fished out, then a heel shot behind the pillar, which he did not hit well.

25.Minute : Hoffenheim gets a throw-in in their own half and throw the ball more or less directly to Thiago. So the pressure doesn't let up ...

24.Minute : usual picture: Bayern in motion on the Hoffenheimer Kasten and Gnabry has almost the whole page to itself. Coutinho sees him and makes something unusual: his long ball goes completely in the back and then out.

22.Minute : Again Zirkzee at the penalty area and again it becomes dangerous. Nice double pass with Gnabry, which is then free behind the rejection and can cover. One last Hoffenheim leg stops the pass on Müller.

20.Minute: Against Cologne, Bayern almost made it after three quick goals, but today it doesn't look like it. Defense runs also tackle the red in the full sprint.

14.Minute : Joshua Zirkzee ennobles his debut completely after a quarter of an hour and ensures that the Hoffenheimers are already tired of the game.

Rudy gives the youngster an incredible amount of time in the penalty area, he simply turns and pushes the ball into the goal. If this continues, the people of Baden will catch a proper pack. By the way, Zirkzee with credits on all three hits.

12 minutes: Now the guests again. Couinho has to decide in the penalty area: Do it yourself or take it off? He does it himself and misses it.

10.Minute: FC Bayern does not let up a bit and the foot on the gas. With four men, the Munich press against the Hoffenheim structure. This naturally creates gaps in your own half. Bruun Larsen uses one of them for a counter run and in the end the first corner is for the hosts.

Nordtveit appears completely free in the five and only has to push the ball in. Heads over it.

7th minute: It is already bitter for the TSG. Kimmich puts it 2-0. The first Joshua (Zirkzee) can still grapple with Nordveit, but namesake Kimmich is waiting behind him and hits from about 16 meters with a low shot

2: 0! Kimmich raised for FC Bayern

2nd minute: It works right the next time! Bayern conquer the ball in the Hoffenheim half and Zirkzee switches very quickly. Put the ball straight through to Coutinho , who flanks much better this time and finds Gnabry. Gnabry fires the leather with an artistic fall back towards the gate. There he jumps from Oliver Baumann's knees into the net. Could also be considered an own goal.

Tooooor! FC Bayern meets Hoffenheim directly in the Mark - Gnabry meets artistically

1st minute: Blitzstart Bayern! The first long ball reaches Coutinho, who can cross it freely in the penalty area. The Brazilian makes two mistakes in this campaign: his flank goes nowhere and he was already offside before. The direction is already clear.
