Bayern Munich returned to winning ways with a 3-1 victory over Sporting in the Champions League on Tuesday. The Bundesliga champions overcame an early deficit at the Allianz Arena to move up to second in the 36-team table.
Bayern Munich bounced back from their only loss of the season, a 3-1 defeat to Arsenal, by securing a 3-1 win against Sporting. The match started poorly for the hosts when Joshua Kimmich scored an own goal, giving the visitors the lead. Serge Gnabry quickly restored parity by drawing Bayern level.
The turning point came in the 69th minute when 17-year-old prodigy Lennart Karl found the net, completing the comeback. Karl made history as the youngest-ever player to score in three consecutive Champions League matches. Defender Jonathan Tah sealed the points with a goal just under 15 minutes from time, putting Bayern on the brink of a top-eight finish and automatic qualification to the next stage.
This result highlights Bayern's resilience despite the early setback, positioning them one step closer to their goals in Europe's elite competition.
