The first title of the 2022/23 season in German football was handed out tonight (Saturday), and it too went to the reigning champion Bayern Munich, who defeated the cup holder R.B. Leipzig 3:5 at the end of a great game and lifted the Super Cup for the tenth time in its history – more than any other team in Germany.
Jamal Musiale started the celebration (14), Sadio Mane added an easy goal (31) on his official debut, and Benjamin Fabre (45), Serge Gnabry (65) and Leroy Sane (90+8) also participated in the celebration. Marcel Halstenberg (59), Christopher Ankoko (77) and Danny Olmo (89) managed to shrink and pressure the champion, six days before the start of the league, but no more.

17th minute – Ankoko was left alone in front of Neuer and found the net, but the VAR intervened and the goal was disallowed due to deviation.
