Match Report

Bayern win at Mainz to stay top but lose Neuer injured

Bayern Munich kept their unbeaten start going with a 2-1 win at Mainz, though the afternoon was soured when Manuel Neuer had to come off hurt. Joshua Kimmich opened the scoring in the 14th minute, left unmarked after Harry Kane found him. Kane was involved again for the second, when his shot rebounded to Lennart Karl, who scored in the 57th minute. Mainz thought they were level just before the break, when Jae-Sung Lee headed in a Nadiem Amiri free kick, but VAR ruled it out for offside by a tiny margin. Neuer, playing his 550th Bundesliga game at 40, was hurt around that moment and Jonas Urbig replaced him before half-time. Substitute Phillip Tietz pulled one back for Mainz in stoppage time, at 90+2. For Bayern, the win keeps them top of the table, ahead of Borussia Dortmund. Mainz have now lost four competitive games in a row and travel to Augsburg next.
