>>> UPDATE <<<
8:29 p.m.:
Bayern can thank Union's exploitation of chances that the game does not end in a victory for Berlin.
Lewandowski does it for FCB - again!
But also because of the huge chance for Sané in the end, the division of points is probably okay.
90 + 4 minutes: final whistle!
90 + 3 minutes:
Pavard pulls out a free kick with an overhead kick against Teuchert, who pushes unnecessarily - instead of a corner for Union.
90 + 2 minutes:
Trimmel finds Friedrich - next to it!
90 + 1 minute:
Gentner comes for Awoniyi.
Four minutes of stoppage time - and corner for Union.
Luthe holds the draw for Union - world-class parade of the Union keeper
89th Minute: Luthe holds the draw!
Sané beheads a Coman flank off the line with a world class parade!
88th Minute:
Choupo-Moting comes to Bayern for Gnabry.
85th Minute:
Either way: You have to take your hat off to the performance of the Berliners.
Until the end they combine and don't hit the balls.
84th Minute:
Union currently has more momentum again.
The second air with the Berliners.
But which team has the final say?
83 minutes:
On the other side, Luthe easily intercepts a Gnabry free kick.
82nd Minute:
Trimmel's corner flies back into the dangerous zone!
Friedrich doesn't hit him perfectly in the head - Neuer is here.
81st minute:
Bayern are currently again leading the table, because of the better goal difference compared to Leipzig.
But Leverkusen can jump past FCB with a victory tomorrow.
Union continues with huge chances against Bayern
80th minute:
Who has more in the tank?
Is Union satisfied with the draw?
The Berliners had the better chances, and by far.
79th Minute:
Becker gets yellow for a push in midfield.
77th Minute:
Tolisso comes for the ailing Goretzka.
76th Minute: What a mega opportunity for Union! Bavaria in great luck!
Endo has all the options, can pass left or right in three-on-one - but he does it himself and far too weak!
New holds!
72nd minute:
Union changes twice - Ryerson and Endo replace Bülter and Griesbeck.
Bayern comes back against Union - of course Lewandowski does it
67th Minute: Goal for Bayern!
What do Bayern have in the quiver if nothing works?
Lewandowski of course!
Coman conjures up left on the outside line towards the goal, puts back on the penalty point - Lewandowski nails the thing humorlessly and directly into the mesh.
⚽ @lewy_official finally makes the earned compensation!

66th Minute:
Multiple shot chance of Bavaria!
First Coman, then Gnabry, then Pavard - first Luthe, then blocked.
65th minute:
Becker's diagonal low shot rushes past Neuer's box on the right.
63rd Minute:
Sané comes into play for Musiala.
62nd Minute:
Union again!
Teuchert refueled super on the left and lays back thoughtfully - Bluter's direct purchase is blocked.
60th Minute:
Trimmel chips the ball to Awoniyi as soft as butter - Neuer is a blink of an eye earlier on the ball.
Union almost 2-0 against Bayern
59 minutes:
Lewandowski comes in after a Gnabry corner - after all, the ball lands in Luthe's arms after a few headers.
58th Minute:
Lewandowski messes up the ball with the hoe, but is saved by the referee, who whistles a jersey violation by Teuchert.
56th Minute: huge double counter chance for Union!
Teuchert's simple ball into the top is too imprecise, otherwise a teammate would have run towards Neuer alone.
Then Awoniyi straddles the ball in the middle for a cross!
55th minute:
Luthe remains attentive, stands in the way of Coman, who no longer has time for a well-placed conclusion.
54th Minute:
The Bavarian flanks are still too imprecise.
Union has clear air sovereignty.
Union against Bavaria: Friedrich and Lewandowski must be treated
52nd Minute:
FCB has had more of the game in the second half.
Friedrich and Lewandowski crash on the field at about the moment that the Union fans in front of the stadium have chosen for their fireworks.
Both need to be treated outside.
51st Minute:
Coman pulls from the second row - deflected, side out.
49th Minute:
Gnabry does not bring the corner - like a free kick before - to a teammate.
49th Minute:
Pavard takes a corner for Bayern.
48th minute:
Union in forward gear after strong counter-pressing.
A one-two attempt by Bülter then fails.
46th minute: No changes, the game is back on track
.
Karius had warmed up intensely, but Luthe will continue to do so for the time being.
Half-time in Berlin: Bayern are behind at Union - strong hosts
45th + 4 minutes: halftime!
Union leads 1-0 against Bayern.
The Berliners show an outstanding performance, only the exploitation of opportunities (two "hundred percent" wasted) leaves a lot to be desired.
The FCB must improve significantly.
45 + 3 minutes:
Striking: Lewandowski is the playmaker, is rarely found at the top.
45th minute:
Lewandowski circles the free kick into the wall.
Boateng's margin leads to Bavarian protests - but the referees have recognized no handball.
Union counters, Neuer is out of the gate - but again he is not punished.
Phew!
Intense scenes before the break.
44th Minute:
That was pretty close!
Union confused the ball in the penalty area - ultimately Luthe must come out carefully against Coman.
But after a foul by Knoche there is a free kick in front of the penalty area for the Unioner and yellow for Knoche ...
43rd Minute:
Gnabry leaves!
The international striker fires a dropkick from the right corner of the box - Luthe dives and has him!
42nd minute:
Awoniyi makes the ball great, Becker's pass into the deep is a bit too long.
Injury bad luck: Union has to change early
40th minute:
Lenz does not get into the running duel against Gnabry - but shoots him with a tackle.
It works at Union!
Goal kick for the home side.
38th Minute:
Coman and Gnabry with a misunderstanding: The ball ends up on the sidelines.
Typical of the FCB's appearance so far.
36th Minute:
Teuchert comes to Union for Ingvartsen - he was injured.
Bitter for Union!
Gnabry sees yellow after holding in midfield.
32nd minute:
"Excitement" on the sideline: One of the assistants needs a new flag.
Bayern feel their way closer - Alaba pulls from a distance, next to it.
31st Minute:
Trimmel again with the free-kick flank - this time without danger, because offside.
Berlin solves a lot with playful means - Davies sees yellow
30th minute:
The Berliners solve a lot with playful means, and have success with it.
Except for the exploitation of chances, one has to say: the hosts have performed perfectly so far.
And Bavaria?
Davies, previously completely logged off, is late in midfield and sees yellow.
29th Minute:
Gnabry is looking for Lewandowski at the corner, but the Pole does not play a decisive role in the middle.
28th minute:
Griesbeck lost the ball in the forward movement.
Bayern counters - Lewandowski comes from 19 meters to the conclusion.
Deflected, corner.
27.Minute:
Bavaria is at least stuck in the Union half.
A chip ball from Goretzka then lands at Luthe.
24th minute:
Schwalbe (?) From Lewandowski against Friedrich - he wants a penalty, but that doesn't even go to the VAR.
Or did Lewandowski get stuck in the grass at the crucial moment?
Either way: kick.
And no yellow for Lewandowski.
Union almost make it 2-0 - Awoniyi forgives again!
22nd minute: And again Awoniyi appears alone in front of Manuel Neuer!
He delays great against Alaba - but puts the thing with his left just next to the post!
Great luck for Bavaria!
19th minute:
New excursion - Becker wants to punish him with praise, but too imprecise.
18th Minute:
The two teams press hard - some bad passes in midfield and inaccuracies are the result.
15th minute:
Lewandowski sends Müller with a direct ball into the room - a little too long, one for Luthe.
14th minute:
You almost only hear the Berliners communicating - the Bavarians, including speaker Thomas Müller, are noticeably quiet.
Gnabry with the first chances for Bayern at Union Berlin
13th minute:
Gnabry pulls sharply from the right - clearly to the left, half flank, half shot on goal.
12. Minute:
Ingvartsen checks Neuer with a flick from the state. The keeper grabs.
In the background you can hear loud Union fans from in front of the stadium.
11th minute:
Bayern are having a hard time, the Unioners have of course built up self-confidence and are doing well in midfield.
8th minute: Gnabry appears alone in front of Luthe!
Great ball from Lewandowski - but Gnabry skips the ball. You don't see that often with the German national team.
7th minute:
Leipzig is currently first, Bayern only second - and Union is fifth ahead of Dortmund.
Very strong, men!

Prömel jumps higher than Lewandowski and extends a Trimmel corner with the back of his head on the first post perfectly into the far corner - no chance for Neuer this time!
1st minute:
Great opportunity for Union!
Awoniyi is sent for a long time and approaches Neuer completely freely.
The national goalkeeper unpacks a huge reflex and clears the corner!
What a start!
The corner after that brings nothing.

!
The teams step onto the lawn.
6:22 pm:
Flick continues: "First of all, it's about wanting to win the games. It won't be an easy task, we want nine points by Christmas. As a coach and team, you always like to play to zero. We want that as a base See that way. At Kimmich it is planned that he will train next week. It is important that he does not take a step too early. We are happy with the way it went. He has done sensational rehab, works very meticulously, he is an insane professional, it is positive, and that is his first big injury. A lot of things go through your head. It is important that we show him that we are there for him. "
6:20 p.m .:
Flick: "Wolfsburg is already prepared. Everything is relatively short-term. After the game, we immediately focus on the next game."

But we're also going into the game today to win it.
We want to show courage and keep the points in Köpenick and that requires an extraordinary performance.

Bayern at Union Berlin: "We want to take advantage of Bayern's weaknesses"
6:07 pm:
Union trainer Urs Fischer: “Max Kruse will be missing.
As a team, it is important to compensate for that.
I trust my players to have Max forgotten across several shoulders.
It is important to know Bayern's strengths and weaknesses.
We want to get their strengths under control and exploit their weaknesses.
No matter which system you play: It is crucial that the guys are convinced that we will implement our plan.
We have to endure pressure situations, loosen up and then play forward.
Standards are a very important element today and can decide games.
We haven't done that badly so far.
5:53 p.m.:
The
banned
Unioner Robert Andrich on Sky: "The dismissal was checked off relatively quickly.
It annoyed me, but then I quickly looked ahead.
Against Bayern we have to try to allow as little as possible.
We want to get our quick outsiders behind the chain.
We have to be annoying in the duels.
We also have to trust ourselves with short passes, then we can get something against Bayern. "
5.45 p.m.:
Union can even jump past Dortmund in the table today.
And Bavaria?
The difference to BVB could be seven points in a victory over Union.
17:27:

Goretzka is nominally the only six, Davies is allowed to run again in the back, Hernandez only remains the bank.

Update from December 12th, 3:30 p.m.:
Is there an offensive spectacle today at the Alte Försterei?
The
FC Bayern
has with
34 goals
in ten games a new
Bundesliga record
set, but 16 goals are clearly too much for the claims of coach Hansi Flick.
Union Berlin
follows directly behind and,
together with Borussia Dortmund, is the
second best attack in
the league
with
22 goals
.
However, the Eiserne have to do without their injured top scorer
Max Kruse
(six goals)
today
, and
Robert Andrich
(three goals) is
also missing a
red card.
Union Berlin - FC Bayern in the live ticker: Süle stays in Munich
Update from December 12th, 11.40 a.m.:
FC Bayern has
to
do
without
Niklas Süle
in the capital
.
The former Hoffenheimer missed the final training according to
image
information and did not go to Berlin.
Apparently, the
blow to the right knee suffered
in the
Champions League game against Lokomotiv Moscow turned out
to be too big a mortgage.
The central defense of the record champions will therefore
probably be
Jerome Boateng
and
David Alaba
against
Union Berlin
.
Union Berlin - FC Bayern in the live ticker: question marks behind Sané and Tolisso
Update from December 11th, 11 p.m.:
Tomorrow evening at 6.30 p.m.,
FC Bayern will play
the top game at the Alte Försterei at
Union Berlin
.
After the final training session,
coach
Hansi Flick
sat down with his coaching team on Friday afternoon and worked on the line-up.
Coco Tolisso took part
in team training for the first time after his injury.
It is not yet clear whether the Frenchman is ready for action again.
The question of whether
Leroy Sané will
be back in the starting line-up
should also be exciting
.
In any case, Flick has expressed his trust in his problem child.
Whichever way Flick decides, he still has one night to ponder.
We will
follow
the away appearance of FC Bayern in Köpenick in the
live ticker
.
Union Berlin - FC Bayern in the live ticker: Record champions visit the cult club in the east
Berlin
- An old football rule says that the second year after promotion is harder than the premiere season.
The next opponent of
FC Bayern
-
Union Berlin
- does not seem to care about this wisdom.
The cult club from the southeast of the capital played an outstanding first season and finished it in eleventh place.
In the 2020/2021 season, it looks as if the underdog could again stay out of the relegation battle.
On the contrary: after ten Bundesliga * match days, coach Urs Fischer's team even came in
sixth
.
But now you expect a very special guest: FC Bayern Munich, triple winners * and the best team in Europe.
Union Berlin - FC Bayern in the live ticker: A good omen for the record champions?
A look at the successful past season bodes well for the German record champions:
Hansi Flick's team won 2-0
in the away game at the
Alte Försterei
.
After a dynamic draw against RB Leipzig FCB completed once again the top match on Saturday night - the whistle blows at
18:30
.
In addition, the club from Säbener Strasse is again facing a team from the east of the republic.
FC Bayern in the live ticker: Against Union Berlin with Leroy Sané?
In the past three games, Leroy Sané was allowed to start from the start.
Will this also be the case against Union Berlin?
On this - and on other topics - Hansi Flick commented on the Spieltags-PK *: “Trust has to come back.
I experience him as a very self-critical player and person who has made a good development.
I see an enormous increase, that's why he will also get the games. ”On Sunday, FC Schalke 04 will fight the next setback in the Bundesliga - it will go to FC Augsburg. *
