- Union Berlin 2-2 Bayern Munich : Doekhi 27’ 83’ – Diaz 38’, Kane 90+3
What an afternoon from Union Berlin. The capital club pulled off the near-impossible, stopping Bayern Munich from claiming a tenth straight Bundesliga win. Union led twice, only to be pegged back by a late equalizer from the champions.
To challenge this Bayern side, there’s only one recipe — play your game. And Union stuck to their principles flawlessly. Dominant early on, they opened the scoring in the 27th minute through a Doekhi header from a corner. It was the first time all season Bayern had trailed in a league match. Eleven minutes later, Luis Díaz produced another moment of magic. On the left wing, the Colombian kept the ball alive with a sliding tackle, pulled off a brilliant bit of skill to create space, and somehow found the net from an impossible angle — a stroke of genius that made up for his earlier missed one-on-one. Harry Kane, meanwhile, had a frustrating afternoon, squandering several chances.
With the score level at halftime, Bayern tried to impose their dominance after the break, but Union’s defensive organization was nearly flawless, denying the Bavarians any clear-cut chances. Every Union counterattack looked dangerous, and one of them led to a free kick that proved costly for Bayern. The delivery caused chaos in the box, and Kane’s attempted clearance fell perfectly for Doekhi, who bagged an incredible brace to make it 2–1.
Just when it looked like Bayern’s unbeaten run was over, their resilience kicked in once again. Harry Kane, unlucky for most of the game, redeemed himself with a late equalizer to rescue a point.
Bayern remain unbeaten — but this time, they were truly tested.
