END OF THE MATCH AT THE BAYARENA!
The required time is up and Vincic decides to add three more minutes.
Bayern are trying to do more damage through their recoveries: Stanisic is very active in midfield and Gnabry is on the right flank.
PUNISHED
The Argentine player is sent off for angrily protesting a foul called against him.
ANOTHER STICK FROM MUSIALA!
He received the ball in the three-quarters with an advantage, he outlined himself as soon as he stepped into the area to shoot with his right foot and smashed the ball into the right's vine.
KOMPANY REPLICA
Kane and Goretzka leave the pitch, giving way to Müller and Palhinha.
CHANGE AT LEVERKUSEN
Grimaldo leaves the field and Buendía enters.
AND YELLOW FOR KANE
The Englishman is given an absurd card for making a late tackle near the bench area.
TO THE CROSS MUSIALA!
He received a pass between the lines, entering the area on the right side, and with the same passes he charged his right foot to smash the ball into the near corner of the goal.
Davies took a chance! He arrived too late and nailed Xhaka 's ankle. The full-back didn't even get a booking.
SPECTACULAR EMPHASIZATION! Stanisic's counterattack with Davies on the left after an own corner was incredible. The Canadian looked to pass Gnabry at the far post, but the Ecuadorian dived to cut off the goal-scoring opportunity.
Musiala receives a ball inside the box but cuts back to the right, missing the target. Andrich has a good foot to cut off his shooting opportunities.
BAYERN GOAL!
Alphonso Davies scores! He seals the tie!
In a quick move, Bayern took complete control: Gnabry was able to save a ball near the goal line and drag down three markers. He came out of the cage well with a back pass and the ball reached Kane, who shifted it high from his post for Davies to finish first-time. Bayern scored the second!
SCHICK, WARNING
The striker takes it after a nasty tackle on Upamecano .
BAYERN'S DEFENSIVE CHANGE
Ito comes in to reinforce the defense and the one who leaves is Olise.
Grimaldo sends a corner to the far post, but Schick heads it in instead of finishing. The Czech is holding onto the ball.
LEVERKUSEN DOUBLE CHANGE
Adli and Boniface come on suddenly, replacing Arthur and Aleix García.
NOW FRIMPONG! He breaks Gnabry with a diagonal drive down the right and his shot from the edge of the box is found at the near post by Urbig's hand.
Schick passes to Aleix on the edge of the box, but his first-time shot goes wide.
Hincapié made a great self-pass down the left to deliver a tight cross down the middle. He was looking for Aleix García, but Upamecano flicked it back, clearing it for a corner.
Davies gives a scare! The ball reaches Frimpong on the right and his first-time cross hits the Canadian's cheekbone. The Slovenian referee calls for the assistants to come in for a check.
BAYERN'S FORCED CHANGE
Gnabry comes on at full speed for the injured Coman.
GET ON THE GROUND EAT!
He appears to have hurt himself on a previous play and is heading down the baseline with the assists.
COMAN WANTS HIS GOAL! A corner kick falls to the feet of the number 11. He controls it perfectly and shoots with his left foot, forcing Hradecky to kneel to clear.
Xhaka now rushes with Coman driving again. They've already got a yellow card and now he's fouled for another grab.
BAYERN GOAL!
Score as usual! Harry Kane scores!
The Londoner's tenth goal of the current Champions League season came from a set piece: a free kick expertly taken by Kimmich, a poor clearance by Schick, and the ball fell to the number 9, whose precise control allowed him to beat Hradecky and head for the far post. He tapped the ball in and celebrated with Bayern. The first goal of the match!
NOW YOU SEE HER
Coman makes a run down the midfield and Xhaka is fouled. He doesn't escape a booking.
Xhaka takes a chance! He arrives a little late in midfield and leaves the message down low to Musiala. The Swiss player escapes a booking.
OLISE BRUSHES THE GOAL! A tremendous mistake from Palacios, who was overconfident on the wing. The ball didn't go out over the byline and the Frenchman took it in. Hincapié managed to deflect his shot, which was on target.
The referee calls a foul on Hincapié near the touchline and Xabi Alonso, who protests, gets a yellow card.
Now it's time... THE SECOND HALF BEGINS! Ball to Leverkusen.
KOMPANY MOVES THE BENCH
Stanisic enters the field and Laimer is left out, cautioned.
There's no time for more. BREAK AT THE BAYARENA!
The required time is up and Vincic decides to add two more minutes.
SCHICK HEADER! Aleix García takes the corner from the left, with the number 14 anticipating the shot at the near post to head it in. The ball sails just wide of the woodwork.
Upamecano was very quick , as Frimpong came out on the right to generate the counterattack and the French centre-back managed to block his attempt at a change of play.
Grimaldo's tight corner was saved by Urbig with his glove. Schick fouled him, and the referee called a foul.
Grimaldo crosses from the left flank, but Olise stretches his foot well to block. Xabi Alonso's block is unable to damage Bayern.
BEAUTIFUL CAN'T CONTINUE
He's been tested but has serious shoulder discomfort, so Andrich is coming in. We'll see if Xhaka moves into the center back position or is the newcomer.
SCHICK CLOSES THE 1-0! Xhaka 's wicked cross from the right. The ball arrived at the far post with a thump and the Czech headed it in, but was slightly hampered by Upamecano. The ball went just wide.
Meanwhile, Hermoso is being treated on the touchline. He's still suffering from shoulder discomfort, and Xhaka, seeing that his team has been playing for minutes with one less player, gestures to the bench to replace the Spaniard.
Goretzka was magnificent, putting his foot in just as Schick was already loading his right foot to shoot. The Czech's cut to Upamecano on the edge of the box was superb.
And watch out for Hermoso! He puts his hand on his shoulder and looks at the bench with a serious expression. He hurt himself when he fell while committing the foul, but it looks like he's going to continue.
YELLOW FOR BEAUTIFUL
A ball from the left is protected and passed by Kane while the Spaniard hugs him from behind. The Slovenian referee shows it to him.
COMAN HAD IT! Upamecano put the ball back in the net after a corner, and the French winger took the half-turn shot. The ball went just wide of the near post.
Davies rockets from the three-quarter line to the edge of the box, but Tah makes a fantastic save, saving his shot. A corner for Bayern.
Laimer extends the ball to Olise on the right, and Tah has to clear his cross at the far post. Coman was licking his chops in the area.
Frimpong stretches down the right, but Coman excels at putting his foot in and blocking the ball. It's a corner, despite the Dutchman's appeal for a penalty.
Musiala wasn't successful in his diagonal run down the left. He had Tah in front of him, blocking him, and he wasn't able to thread a pass into space for Kane or Olise .
Olise tries to get away with a free kick at first, but Hincapié is a wall. The Frenchman falls and calls for a foul, but Vincic tells him to get up.
OLISE'S MISSILE! The Frenchman makes his trademark move, bursting inside the box to find the far post with his silky left foot. The ball just goes wide.
KANE'S FIRST WARNING! He was the one who stole the ball in the opponent's half, and he was the one who unleashed the right-footed shot from the edge of the box. Hradecky stretches to prevent the first of the match.
Leverkusen continued to push down the left flank, and now it's Hincapié who puts the ball in low. Min-Jae quickly appears to clear.
AND NOW EAT
Grimaldo's cross missed Schick, but Arthur tried to get at it. It arrived near the right corner of the box, and the Bayern winger pushed it in, seeing the yellow card.
YELLOW FOR LAIMER
The Bayern full-back scored the first chance of the match after a foul on Frimpong . He launched himself into a counterattack and was unable to stop him.
The VAR was reviewing the play for a possible penalty on Kane for holding, but in the end, there was nothing.
HRADECKY'S MITT! Musiala's incredible run down the right, with a double cutback, breaks past Hincapié near the byline. The killer pass was looking for Kane at the far post, but he dives, wrestling with Tah. The goalkeeper finally clears the ball right on the goal line.
Palacios and Coman have it in for them! The Bayern winger held onto the ball after a foul and the Argentine shook him afterward. Vincic warned the Leverkusen player.
Kimmich was very alert in his attempt to steal Aleix García's thunder from behind. A foul by the Leverkusen midfielder in a somewhat stumbling start.
Everything is ready, everything is prepared at the Rhineland... THE GAME BEGINS! First possession for Bayern.
