In a thrilling encounter between FC Bayern Munich and Chelsea, the German giants emerged victorious with a 3-1 scoreline. The match, played at the Allianz Arena, witnessed a series of exciting moments that kept spectators on the edge of their seats.
Bayern Munich's coach, Vincent Kompany, had made it clear that the team's goal for the Champions League is to win the title. This ambition was evident in their performance, as they dominated large portions of the game.
The opening goal for Bayern came in the 21st minute, but it was an own goal by Trevoh Chalobah that put them ahead. Just four minutes later, Harry Kane converted a penalty, marking his first goal for the club this season. Kane's second goal came in the 27th minute, once again from the spot, making it his 8th successful penalty in the Champions League for Bayern Munich.

Robert Sanchez made a fantastic save to prevent Bayern from extending their lead to 3-1, denying Konrad Laimer's shot. Unfortunately for Chelsea, Olise missed a golden opportunity to equalize after a wonderful assist from Kane.
Despite Josip Stanisic's early exit due to an injury, Bayern's fluid offense was not significantly affected. Jonathan Tah was substituted at halftime after a shaky performance and receiving a yellow card.
