Match Events
- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between 1. FC Union Berlin and FC Bayern München is underway.
- 4' 1. FC Union Berlin is taking the lead after the goal scored by Grischa Promel on 4.
- 9' Over 9 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 14' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 19' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Christopher Trimmel made 435 appearances and scored 7 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 24' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Maxim Choupo-Moting suffering a number of foals already.
- 29' A quiet spell here at Stadion An der Alten Forsterei. 1. FC Union Berlin seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 30' The referee shows FC Bayern Munchen player a Yellow card on 30.

- 37' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Serge Gnabry on 37 minutes.
- 42' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Bayern München that had 540 games and scored 1057 goals.
- 45' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Robin Knoche.
- 50' 1. FC Union Berlin is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.

- 63' Leroy Sane is replacing Jamal Musiala for the FC Bayern Munchen side.
- 67' A stunning finish from Robert Lewandowski — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 71' Fresh legs for 1. FC Union Berlin! Julian Ryerson comes on to replace Sebastian Griesbeck.
- 72' The referee calls foul for Grischa Promel. He receives a Yellow card.
- 76' FC Bayern Munchen ring the changes. Leon Goretzka has done his job and it is now time for Corentin Tolisso to step up.
- 78' A moment of madness from Sheraldo Becker on 78 minutes earns him a Yellow card. 1. FC Union Berlin will be frustrated.
- 79' Sheraldo Becker catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 79.

- 88' The supporters are chanting for Maxim Choupo-Moting. He replaces Serge Gnabry on 88 minute.
- 90' Christian Gentner has so much to prove this time. He replaces Taiwo Awoniyi on 90 minute.
- The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
