Bayern win overshadowed by triple injury scare

Bayern Munich beat RB Leipzig 3–1 in a pre‑season friendly at the Allianz Arena, but the victory came with three worrying injuries. Konrad Laimer was forced off within minutes, Kim Min‑Jae exited in the second half, and Jamal Musiala appeared to hurt himself while scoring Bayern’s third goal. All three will undergo scans, leaving Vincent Kompany with an unwelcome dilemma just ten days before the Bundesliga opener. On the pitch, Luis Díaz opened the scoring after 13 minutes, though Leipzig equalised early in the second half through Brajan Gruda.

Bayern responded quickly: Nathaniel Brown restored the lead after a precise pass from Aleksandar Pavlovic. Musiala then sealed the win in stoppage time from an Ismael Saibari assist, marking his first pre‑season appearance. The result extends Bayern’s perfect summer run, but the fitness concerns surrounding three key players cast a shadow over an otherwise encouraging performance.
