Barcelona vs Bayern Munich LIVE score, BAR 1-1 BAY, UEFA Champions League: Kane goal stands this time as Bavarians get equaliser

Bayern has been excellent with its response after going down to that early goal from Raphinha. This time, Olise darts down the right and tries to square the ball to a teammate in the middle. However, his cross is blocked. 

Gnabry receives a pass from Kimmich and controls the ball well before going for the shot. However, Pau Cubarsi makes an excellent recovery tackle to prevent the ball from reaching Pena. 

Barcelona gets a reprieve as Kane’s goal is correctly ruled out for offside. The English forward was in an offside position when Muller delivered his cross from the left flank. 

Olise spreads the ball to the right flank to Muller, who delivers an inch-perfect cross to Kane at the far-post. Kane makes an excellent leap to reach the ball and head the ball past Pena into the net. 

Bayern Munich is trying to keep the ball and find its rhythm in the match after a torrid start. Barcelona, meanwhile, looks the more confident team after the early goal. In the most recent move, Guerrero gets the ball inside the box and shoots at goal, but his effort is blocked and Bayern gets a corner. 

Barcelona has a brilliant start against its bogey-team. The Bayern defence are caught out with an early counter. Lewandowski holds up the ball well and sends it to Fermin, who in turn, slips a pass to Raphinha as he makes a clear run at goal. One-on-one with Neuer, the Brazilian has the composure to take the ball around the German keeper and slot the ball inside the empty net. A brilliant start for Flick against his former team. 

The first-half of the UEFA Champions League 2024-25 clash between Barcelona and Bayern Munich is underway at the Lluis Companys Olympic Stadium. 

Matches: 15 

FC Barcelona: 2

Draws: 2

Bayern Munich: 11 

Barcelona coach Hansi Flick said on Tuesday he is not worried by the club’s recent struggles against Champions League opponent Bayern Munich.

The German giants have beaten Barcelona in each of their last six meetings and the Catalans have failed to score in the last four of those.

When Flick was coach of Bayern, it thrashed Barcelona 8-2 in the 2020 Champions League quarterfinals.

“The past doesn’t matter, the present is what’s important,” Flick told reporters before Wednesday’s group stage clash against Vincent Kompany’s visiting side.

“Whatever happened in the past we can’t change, we can only influence what happens tomorrow. Of course we want to try and beat Bayern Munich.”
