Bayern lost another DFL Supercup after penalties, after the Bavarians were struck by bad luck and equalized in the 89′.

First half: close calls on both sides

Bayern had the better start, with newcomer Douglas Costa looking to prove his worth. Costa hit the crossbar (8′) from close range, after Thiago Alcantara headed a cross from a corner.
Wolfsburg retaliated through a powerful shot from Vieirinha (12′) that just sailed off target. A great buildup from the Wolves, with Kevin De Bruyne at the center of the attack.
The Bavarians had a aggressive high-pressing positioning, forcing Wolfsburg to defend and wait for the counter. They came close to opening the score (24′) with a deflected shot from De Bruyne and Ricardo Rodriguez nearly missing from the ensuing corner.
Bayern hit back on the break (26′) with Robert Lewandowski and Costa invited each other to go for goal, giving Naldo the chance to intervene and clear the ball.
Bayern München kept possession for most of the remaining time, but was cut off-guard and was lucky not to concede a goal after De Bruyne’s shot went wide of an empty net (42′).
The half ended at 0:0 and not much separating the two, with both sides unable to hit their stride after the summer break.

Second half: last minute loss

The Bavarians started the second half hard and opened the score (49′) with a short range shot from Arjen Robben, after Lewandowski fumbled the ball in front of goal from a great cross from Costa.
After opening the score, Die Roten got a foothold and slowly took control of the game. Robben was close to doubling his tally (56′), but the ball bounced awkwardly and the Dutchman was unable to control it.
The Wolves tried to hit back, but Bas Dost shot (58′) straight at Neuer from a good position.
The game slowed down and the only remarkable moment was Vidal’s debut (74′) for the Rekordmeister.
Wolfsburg came back from nowhere and Niklas Bendtner scored from close range (89′) after a great run and pass from De Bruyne.
The match ended at 1:1 and penalties were needed to decide the DFL Supercup.
The Bavarians lost when Alonso was the only player to miss, as Guardiola loses his third consecutive Supercup.
