In the next match, Inter Milan won 2:0 at the Viktorie Plzeň stadium with Slovak defender Milan Škriniar in the starting line-up. At the top of the table after two rounds, Bayern is one hundred percent. The Catalans created the first clear opportunity in Munich, Pedri got rid of the defenders and goalkeeper Manuel Neuer reflexively kicked his shot from inside the penalty area. Lewandowski’s return attracted attention and the Polish gunner could spice it up with a goal, but first he went over the goal from close range after a pass from the left side, and soon after another cross from the left wing Neuer neutralized his header. Raphinha fired just wide from outside the penalty area, at the other end Marcel Sabitzer’s shot from the edge of the big box was not far behind. Before the half-time break, Lewandowski’s looming chance was blocked by Noussair Mazraoui, and the Catalans demanded in vain for the eleven after Alphonse Davies’ fight with Ousmane Dembele, the referee also consulted the VAR system. Immediately after the break, Raphinh threatened with another finish, which narrowly missed the three posts. The guests were crying for missed opportunities, goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen blocked Leon Goretzka’s hard shot in the 50th minute, but soon capitulated, twice in short succession. Joshua Kimmich took a corner, the ball fell over two Barcelona players on the jump and Hernandez headed in at the near post. Three minutes later, Jamal Musiala found the onrushing Sane, who slipped between two defenders and slotted the ball past Ter Stegen into the net.
