It was soon 2-0, with Mané opening his Bayern account when he finished off a lovely team move. And Benjamin Pavard increased the visitors’ advantage on the stroke of half-time after being tee’d up by Musiala.

And Olmo himself then got on the scoresheet in the dying minutes to set up a nail-biting finish, only for Leroy Sané to put it back beyond doubt when he scored Bayern’s fifth goal in the eighth minute of injury time.
It is the 10th time in their history Bayern have won the Supercup and they begin their quest to claim an 11th consecutive Bundesliga title when they travel to Eintracht Frankfurt on Friday night.
