Bayern Munich Avoids United Drama with a 4-3 Victory in the Champions League (Video)

Bayern Munich scored two goals within four minutes in the first half to win 4-3 against their guests Manchester United in Group A of the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday. A grave error from goalkeeper Andre Onana allowed Bayern to take the lead when he failed to save a weak shot from Leroy Sane in the 28th minute. Jamal Musiala surged down the left and passed to Serge Gnabry, who found the net to extend the home side's advantage.

Rasmus Hojlund revived United's hopes at the start of the second half, but that only lasted four minutes. The referee awarded Bayern a penalty due to handball by Christian Eriksen after reviewing the VAR, and Harry Kane converted the penalty in the 54th minute.

Casemiro reduced the deficit just one minute before the end to set the stage for a thrilling finish. However, substitute Mathys Tel eased Bayern fans' nerves with a fourth goal in the second minute of stoppage time. Casemiro added United's third with a header from a free-kick taken by Bruno Fernandes.
