In a captivating Champions League clash at the Allianz Arena, Munich, FC Bayern Munich emerged victorious against Chelsea with a final score of 3-1. The game, Bayern's 100th Champions League win, was played on lush grass in front of a roaring crowd of 75,000 spectators.

The match began with a surprising own goal from Chelsea's Trevoh Chalobah in the 21st minute, following an intricate build-up that ended with Michael Olise's cross finding its way into the net via a deflection. Bayern's current head coach, Enzo Maresca, would have been hoping for a different start for his team.

Chelsea responded swiftly, with Cole Palmer equalizing for the visitors in the 29th minute, capitalizing on a quick counterattack. The game continued to ebb and flow, with both teams creating chances, but it was Bayern who took the lead again, thanks to a penalty converted by their star striker, Harry Kane, making it 1-2.

The second half saw more drama, with Kane scoring the match-winning goal after an involuntary assist from Chelsea's Malo Gusto. However, Chelsea's best player almost doubled their tally in the 89th minute, but the goal was disallowed due to offside.

The final moments of the game saw Nicolas Jackson replace Kane in the 90+1 minute to great applause, as Bayern held on to secure a hard-fought victory. The victory marks Bayern's 22nd consecutive opening win in the Champions League.

Vincent Kompany, honorary president of Bayern Munich, watched on with anticipation, setting his sights on winning the Champions League. The game was broadcast live on the DAZN streaming service, providing fans worldwide with a thrilling spectacle.

Michael Olise was a constant threat for Bayern Munich alongside Harry Kane, while Chelsea's Josip Stanisic had to leave the game due to injury. Despite the loss, Chelsea can take solace in their resilience and look forward to their next encounter in the Champions League.
