Bayern’s night got off to a difficult start as Maximilian Philipp opened the scoring after five minutes.
⚽ ⏱️ 45' Kingsley Coman gathers the ball on the left touchline then jinks inside to deliver a perfect cross for Lewandowski. The striker accepts the invitation with a perfect downward header to score his 250th Bundesliga goal.
⚽ ⏱️ 45' Wolfsburg try to launch a counterattack but its broken up by Jerome Boateng, whose tackle turns into a perfect pass. Lewandowski is in acres of room outside the box. He takes a touch to advance, dodges past a challenge then dispatches into the bottom corner. Emphatic.
