80'
J. Musiala enters the game and replaces K. Coman.
Bayern turn to the bench and introduce Jamal Musiala in place of Coman.
79'
The hosts will be left wondering how they are not level in this game. The woodwork came to Bayern's rescue to deny Finnbogason, who almost made the perfect impact from the bench.
76'
OFF THE POST!!! Normally so deadly from 12 yards, Finnbogason steps up and sends Neuer the wrong way, only to see his penalty come back off the upright.

F. Niederlechner enters the game and replaces A. Hahn.

Minute
Description
68'
Not far away. Caligiuri cuts inside before letting fly with a powerful left-footed strike from distance. His effort is always rising, but not too far over the bar in all fairness.
67'
L. Sané enters the game and replaces S. Gnabry.
C. Tolisso enters the game and replaces R. Lewandowski.
A double-change for Bayern. The first sees Corentin Tolisso replace Gnabry.
Substitution Serge Gnabry Leroy Sané
66'
Bayern have the chance to get in behind as Gnabry threads a neat ball through for Lewandowski, whose first touch lets him down and Uduokhai pokes it away to safety.
62'
F. Uduokhai gets yellow.
Uduokhai just catches Gnabry a fraction late and goes into the book.
58'
Coman looks to latch onto a lofted ball over the top of the Augsburg defence. But the French international began his run a fraction too early, and is rightly flagged offside.
52'
The hosts can be pleased with the way they have started the second half. They have established control of proceedings but must capitalise when in the ascendancy, or you feel they eventually be punished.
48'
Good pressure from the hosts as they go straight onto the attack. They force a succession of set-pieces, but Bayern deal with each of them.
46'
T. Strobl enters the game and replaces R. Khedira.
A change for Augsburg at the break with Tobias Strobl replacing Khedira.
Bayern get the ball rolling once more in the second half.
45' +1
HALF-TIME: AUGSBURG 0-1 BAYERN MUNICH
41'
Alaba tries his luck from distance for Bayern, but his ambitious attempt is way high and wide of the target.
40'
Augsburg must maintain their concentration levels. Bayern are finishing this first half in a strong manner and really testing the hosts' resolve, but they continue to stand firm for now.
36'
Augsburg only manage to half-clear and the ball is sweetly struck on the volley by Kimmich. However, it goes wide of the near post.
32'
Bayern look to double their advantage as they work the ball into the Augsburg area. But the hosts continue to stand firm and keep their opponents at bay.
24'
Lewandowski with a chance this time as he drifts in unmarked at the far post. However, he is unable to keep his shot down.
22'
The visitors continue to apply pressure and the ball almost breaks for Muller to hit on the volley. But Augsburg do well to snuff out his threat on this occasion.
20'
A nervy moment for Gikiewicz, who fumbles the ball as he tries to collect a corner. However, he just about recovers in time to smother it with Lewandowski ready to pounce.
19'
The early goal has certainly taken the wind out of Augsburg's sails. Bayern are looking to press home their advantage as they effortlessly spray the ball around and neatly maintain possession.
15'
R. Khedira gets yellow.
Khedira catches Hernandez late and is the first player into the book. That one looked painful!
13'
Penalty goal scored by R. Lewandowski for Bayern Munich!
LEWANDOWSKI STEPS UP... AND YOU KNOW THE REST!!! 1-0 BAYERN! The number nine calmly sends the goalkeeper the wrong way as he clinically tucks away the spot-kick.
11'
Lewandowski is completely unmarked as he heads over from Kimmich's free-kick. However, his blushes are spared as the offside flag had already been raised.
10'
Augsburg look to launch a counter with a lofted ball over the top of the Bayern defence. But in trademark fashion, Neuer races out of goal to clear the danger for the visitors.
4'
At the other end, Kimmich's whipped corner is met by Lewandowski, but he heads straight at the goalkeeper from 10 yards out.
2'
A nervy moment for Bayern early on! An untimely slip from Boateng allows Khedira to attempt to thread the ball into the box. However, Alaba digs his central defensive partner out of a hole by shielding it behind for a goal kick.

The referee blows his whistle and Augsburg get the match underway!
