Bayern Munich won the German Super Cup by defeating Borussia Dortmund 2 to 1 on Saturday. The match took place at the Signal Iduna Park in front of 81,365 spectators. Bayern established a lead in the first half when new signing Nathaniel Brown scored in the 28th minute following an assist from Michael Olise. Olise then scored a second goal for the visitors during first half stoppage time. Borussia Dortmund reduced the deficit in the 30th minute of the second half with a goal from Fabio Silva. The closing stages of the match were marked by a direct red card given to Dortmund defender Ramy Bensebaini for a foul on Ismael Saibari. In the final minutes, Dortmund attacker Maximilian Beier missed a significant opportunity to equalize by shooting over the goal. Bayern entered the match as the current Bundesliga and German Cup champions. They were without midfielder Jamal Musiala, who has reportedly suffered a neurological dysfunction. The match was attended by several notable figures, including German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and the new German national team coach Jürgen Klopp. The competition, now named the Franz Beckenbauer Super Cup, has been won by Bayern 12 times. The Bundesliga season is scheduled to begin on Friday, August 28, with Bayern facing Stuttgart.
