2022 Supercup: Leipzig 3-5 Bayern
Goals: 0-1 Musiala 14', 0-2 Mané 31', 0-3 Pavard 45', 1-3 Halstenberg 59', 1-4 Gnabry 66', 2-4 Nkunku, 3-4 Olmo 89', 3-5 Sané 90'+8

After the first half of the Supercup curtain raiser in July 2022, few would have predicted the game would turn into a classic. Sauntering along with a certain new signing making his competitive bow for the club, Bayern were flying high on the Sadio Mané feel-good factor. Indeed, the new arrival from Liverpool was in his element in this fixture, enjoying himself by scoring his team's second of the evening. Jamal Musiala and Benjamin Pavard also hit the target in a first-half cruise for the record champions.

André Silva and Dani Olmo were introduced in the second half for Leipzig, who saw Marcel Halstenberg briefly reduce the arrears. Serge Gnabry then pounced after Péter Gulácsi parried a shot and Bayern's three-goal cushion was restored. That's when things took a mighty turn. Christopher Nkunku's penalty changed the atmosphere inside the Red Bull Arena, and the crowd were on their feet and filled with belief when Olmo scored in the 89th minute.

During a lengthy period of added time, the feeling was that at 4-3, this game could now go either way. In the end, however, it was Bayern who registered a fifth and took the Cup after Leroy Sané rounded off a swift counter-attack.
