This DFB Pokal encounter promised high drama between the German giants. Both teams aimed for cup progress, adding to their intense modern rivalry. The Allianz Arena buzzed with anticipation.
The match started with immediate controversy. In the 4th minute, RB Leipzig thought Christoph Baumgartner had scored. The VAR intervened, ruling out the goal for offside, denying a crucial first goal.
After the disallowed goal, both sides settled into a tactical battle. Chances remained few and far between for much of the first half. Leipzig’s O. Werner received the first yellow card of the game in the 29th minute.
The teams entered the break at 0-0. Bayern needed to unlock Leipzig’s defence. The second half demanded intensity and precision from the locals.
The second half came alive after the hour mark. Bayern’s pressure led to a foul inside the box. Leipzig goalkeeper Maarten Vandevoordt received a yellow card for fouling.
This decision resulted in a penalty for Bayern. Harry Kane confidently took the spot kick in the 64th minute. He made no mistake, sending the ball into the net and breaking the deadlock.
Bayern quickly doubled their lead and struck again just three minutes later. Luis Díaz caught a precise pass from Michael Olise. He scored a clinical finish in the 67th minute.
Leipzig responded with several substitutions, attempting a comeback. However, the latter stages saw a flurry of yellow cards. Four players from Leipzig and two from Bayern have received warnings.
Bayern München controlled 57% of the possession and had seven shots on goal in 12 attempts. RB Leipzig have registered just one shot on target in seven attempts. Goalkeeper Maarten Vandevoordt made four important saves.
This win propels Bayern München into the next stage of the DFB Pokal. Their hopes of domestic cup glory remain alive. For RB Leipzig, their DFB Pokal journey for 2025-2026 ends here.
