Bayern de Munique came from an early deficit to beat Osnabruck 1-4 in the DFB Pokal. Robin Meißner put the hosts in front, but Harry Kane scored twice, including a late penalty, as the visitors took control before half-time and finished the job after the break.

Match Summary

Osnabruck started quickly at Bremer Brücke. Robin Meißner had them ahead after five minutes, putting the hosts in front in this DFB Pokal meeting with Bayern de Munique.

The lead lasted through the opening quarter of an hour. Harry Kane leveled in the 18th minute, and Tom Bischof put the visitors in front six minutes later. Those two goals flipped the night. Osnabruck had led. By the interval they were chasing, and Bayern de Munique were dictating the tempo.

The second half did not offer a way back. Bayern de Munique stayed on the front foot after the restart, and Michael Olise stretched the lead in the 73rd minute. Kane then converted a penalty in the 86th minute as the visitors completed a 1-4 win.

Key Moments

The opening five minutes were Osnabruck's best window. Taking the lead so early forced Bayern de Munique into a chase, which is the only phase of the match the hosts controlled.

What decided the tie was how quickly that chase succeeded. Two goals in six first-half minutes turned a home lead into a visiting advantage. After that, Osnabruck were no longer protecting a lead. They were trying to stay in a contest against a side that had the ball and the chances.

The late penalty removed the last sliver of doubt. Bayern de Munique were already out of reach when it was awarded, and converting it made the closing minutes a formality rather than a test of nerve.

Match Statistics

The numbers tracked how the contest opened up. Bayern de Munique had 68 percent of possession and outshot Osnabruck 21 to 5, with nine attempts on target against two. They also won all eight corners of the match. Osnabruck did not register a corner. Neither side received a yellow or red card.
