Events
Match Events
- 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Allianz Arena!
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Modou NDiaye, as he is very good at scoring at Allianz Arena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 7' Leroy Sane has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 7 minutes.
- 12' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Marian Tvrdon made 150 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 13' The Germany forward Serge Gnabry breaks the deadlock on 13 minutes. 2-0!
- 18' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both FC Bayern Munchen and FC Viktoria Plzeň are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 21' The Senegal Sadio Mane breaks the deadlock on 21 minutes. 3-0!
- 26' Alphonso Davies has been relatively quiet despite scoring 31 goals in his last 281 appearances.
- 29' Tomas Chory has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 29.
- 34' FC Bayern Munchen started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 34.
- 36' The Germany Jamal Musiala breaks the deadlock on 36 minutes. 4-0!
- 41' The home supporters are growing impatient. FC Bayern Munchen must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 46' FC Viktoria Plzen make a change. Adam Vlkanova trudges off to be replaced by Vaclav Jemelka on 46 minutes.
- 50' What a moment for Leroy Sane! That strike on 50 puts his side firmly in control.
- 51' GOAL! Leroy Sane scores on 51. Assisted by Sadio Mane
- 56' The energy levels are beginning to show. Julian Nagelsmann might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 58' The supporters are chanting for Erik Jirka. He replaces Jan Kopic on 58 minute.
- 59' Maxim Choupo-Moting does the damage! The net is bulging and FC Bayern Munchen surge ahead!
- 63' It is a substitution in FC Viktoria Plzen team. Lukas Hejda is replaced by Mohamed Tijani on 63 minute.
- 68' 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 Adam Vlkanova suffering a number of foals already.
- 72' Benjamin Pavard is ready to make an impact after coming on for Dayot Upamecano at the 72 minute mark.
- 73' It is a substitution in FC Bayern Munchen team. Leon Goretzka is replaced by Marcel Sabitzer on 73 minute.
- 78' With 3 assists to his name this season, Dayot Upamecano is clearly more than just a goal scorer for FC Bayern Munchen.
- 83' Libor Holik has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 85' Another change for FC Viktoria Plzen made on 85 minute. Jhon Mosquera leaves to be changed by Vaclav Pilar.
- 90' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 5-0.
