After the DFB Pokal semi-final clash in Leverkusen, Bayern Munich secured a strong 2-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen to book their place in the final for the first time since 2020. Goals from Harry Kane and Luis Diaz ensured a comfortable victory and kept Bayern’s hopes of a treble alive after recently clinching back-to-back Bundesliga titles.
Bayern dominated early, with both Kane and Diaz testing goalkeeper Mark Flekken before Kane opened the scoring in the first half, capitalizing on a pass from Jamal Musiala. Leverkusen showed more intent after the break, with Nathan Tella forcing a superb save from Manuel Neuer.
Despite the hosts pushing, Bayern created better chances late on. Diaz eventually sealed the win in stoppage time after a pass from Leon Goretzka, with the goal confirmed after a VAR check. Bayern, record 20-time winners, will now face either Stuttgart or Freiburg in the final in Berlin.
