Soon after the break, Michael Olise made the score 2-0 with a fine first-time strike from inside the box Midway through the second half, the game turned on its head as the home team levelled the score in the space of just six minutes."

In terms of possession, Bayern almost quadrupled that of the opposition. Die Roten also outshot Wiesbaden 22-9 in terms of total shots and 9-2 in terms of big chances. Although Harry Kane missed his second spot kick of the match soon after the scores were levelled, the chief culprit on the night in terms of missed opportunities was Luiz Diaz."
