Bayern Escapes Salzburg Trap with Late Equalizer

Kingsley Coman scored in the 90th minute to secure a 1-1 draw for Bayern Munich against hosts Salzburg in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 on Wednesday. The Austrian team, making its first appearance in the knockout stages of the tournament, took the lead in the middle of the first half with a goal from a counterattack finished by Chukwubuike Adamou. Adamou, 20 years old, came on as a substitute in the 12th minute after striker Noah Okafor was injured. However, Frenchman Coman, who scored the winning goal for Bayern in the Champions League in 2020, ensured that the six-time champions left with a draw when he capitalized on a header from Thomas Müller at the far post to find the net.
