Guilavogui sees yellow-red
After the next double from goal machine Robert Lewandowski storms the FC Bayern Munich in the Champions League single-mindedly towards the second round. The world footballer set on Wednesday at 5: 0 (2: 0) against Dynamo Kiev with a converted hand penalty (12th minute) and after a perfect pass from Thomas Müller (27.) continued his series of hits in the “premier class”. The Pole had already scored twice in the 3-0 opener against FC Barcelona. 25,000 spectators were allowed to score more goals in the Munich arena by Serge Gnabry (68th), Leroy Sané (74th) and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (87th) cheer. In their first European home game in front of an audience in almost two years, the vastly superior team of coach Julian Nagelsmann consolidated the leading position in Group E. In three weeks, Bayern can move closer to group victory at Benfica Lisbon.
In the 10th minute Lewandowski failed with his head. But then Serhij Sydortschuk took a clumsy hand to help after a Joshua Kimmich corner in the penalty area. Lewandowski took the penalty as safe as usual, it was his twelfth penalty goal for Bayern in the twelfth attempt in the Champions League. Even after that, the home side kept the pressure high, Kiev lacked the means. Dynamo had not won away in the premier class since 2015, but Bayern were unbeaten in 23 group games in a row before the game. Almost consequently, Lewandowski increased to 2-0 when Thomas Müller served him perfectly and the Pole completed a cool shot with a low shot. The 33-year-old screwed his account in the Champions League to 77 hits.

Sané was unlucky a little later when his shot bounced back into the field from the inside post (35th). Nevertheless, the national player, who was scolded at the beginning of the season, was honored by the audience with “Leroy, Leroy” chants. National coach Hansi Flick also watched the game of his ex-team in the stands. Shortly before the break, Bayern neglected coach Nagelsmann’s instructions and were defensively unsorted in a rare counterattack by Dynamo. Carlos de Pena, however, found his master in Manuel Neuer, who steered the ball over the bar (41st).
Even shortly after the break, the national goalkeeper had to intervene again, cleared against Viktor Zyhankow in front of the penalty area. On the other side, Artem Schabanow saved Kimmich’s shot just before the goal line (52nd).
Bayern were still clearly superior. After a few negligently missed opportunities, Gnabry said goodbye with a 3-0 win. The winger hit the crossbar after a counterattack and then made way for young star Jamal Musiala. In the ninth competitive game in a row, the Munich team scored at least three goals. But that’s not all: Sané surprised guest goalkeeper Heorhij Buschtschan, who had expected a cross and could no longer prevent the fourth goal. The final point was the substitute Lewandowski representative Choupo-Moting with a header after a cross from Benjamin Pavard.
Champions League: VfL Wolfsburg loses three points and Guilavogui with yellow-red
A controversial foul penalty shortly before the end has the VfL Wolfsburg lost their first victory in the new Champions League season. The former Schalke Ivan Rakitic scored on Wednesday evening in the 87th minute for the 1: 1 (0: 0) final score for the Sevilla FC . The insecure referee Georgi Kabakov (Bulgaria) and his video assistant had previously had an action by the VfL professional for several minutes Josuha Guilavogui checked, who first hit the ball and then the shin of the Argentinian Erik Lamela in the penalty area. In the end, Kabakov not only gave a penalty, but also a yellow-red for Guilavogui (85th). Renato Steffen (48th) had brought Wolfsburg into the lead shortly after the break from close range.
The first Champions League home game in five and a half years triggered something in Wolfsburg. In contrast to the 2-0 win against Real Madrid in April 2016, only 11,733 spectators were in the Volkswagen Arena due to the corona. But this often smiled at audience was very loud this time, it threw confetti – and in the end cursed the referee. In the next few games, the Bundesliga team will face Austrian champions Red Bull Salzburg (October 20th and November 2nd). These two games could be decisive for reaching the round of 16.
