Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich secured a dramatic 3-1 victory over St Pauli, with Luis Diaz and Nicolas Jackson scoring in injury time after Raphael Guerreiro’s earlier equaliser.
According to a report on the dramatic Bundesliga fixture, league leaders Bayern Munich needed two late goals in injury time to secure a victory over lowly St Pauli at home.
The visitors, who remain in the relegation zone, claimed a surprise early lead when Andreas Hountondji, on loan from Burnley, capitalized after Bayern gave the ball away several times.
Bayern struggled to equalize immediately, with both Lennart Karl and Tom Bischof hitting the woodwork as the home side probed.
The leveller finally arrived late in the first half when ex-Liverpool man Luis Diaz, while on the ground, managed to flick the ball on with his heel for Raphael Guerreiro to lash the ball home.
The second half saw Bayern intensify their pressure, though their struggles continued as striker Harry Kane smashed an effort off the post.
The breakthrough only came three minutes into injury time when Diaz rose to head home from Joshua Kimmich’s cross, sealing the dramatic comeback.
Substitute Nicolas Jackson, on loan from Chelsea, added a late third goal as St Pauli, suffering “late heartbreak,” threw players forward in desperation.
Bayern have been dominant in the league this season, boasting a record of won 11 and drawn one of their league games, with their only defeat so far being Wednesday’s 3-1 Champions League loss at Arsenal.
