Can Bayern get something from this match?Halftime ObservationsBayern is downright awful today. There’s no other way to put it.A bunch of Bayern’s players were subpar today.The only thing that makes this scoreline less painful is that this is a nothingburger match. If anything, it’ll trigger “revenge Bayern” who will go all out against PSG next week.45+2’ — Goal.

Bayern is 3-0 down. THREE goals to NONE. What the hell.45’ — Three minutes of stoppage time.40’ — Alphonso Davies receives the ball but he couldn’t control it properly to get a good shot off.

Side netting is the result.38’ — Bayern win a free kick after a foul on Jackson.37’ — Mainz go on the counter but Bayern manage to stop it. Breath of relief.33’ — Mainz free kick nearly goes in. And another.

And another. Bayern is getting peppered.29’ — Goal. Mainz score again. Urbig had no help there.24’ — Aleksandar Pavlović takes the corner and much like Joshua Kimmich’s corners it goes too high for anyone to reach22’ — Urbig saves another shot destined for the top corner.

Bayern go down the other end but still no goal.20’ — Mainz go forward again but this time Urbig produces two massive saves to deny Mainz. Dominik Kohr also booked.17’ — Bayern go on the attack almost immediately but the cut back from Laimer doesn’t find anyone.15’ — Goal. Mainz score from a corner kick after Bayern fail to clear the lines.13’ — Jonas Urbig sprints out of his box to head a Mainz through lob.

Manuel Neuer would be proud of that.11’ — Mainz go on the attack but the final ball was lacking and it goes out for a Bayern goal kick.5’ — Konrad Laimer crosses for Nicolas Jackson but the ball is too high for the latter.4’ — Raphaël Guerreiro tries a backheel but it’s a bit too high to go on target.Kickoff! — The match has commenced!Bayern Munich released its lineup for the Mainz 05 showdown and it features a heavy rotation (as expected) with the first start for Bara Sapoko Ndiaye: 🚨 𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗥𝗧𝗘𝗟𝗙 🚨So starten wir gegen Mainz! 📋 pic.twitter.com/aH1dj8uEYW— FC Bayern München (@FCBayern) April 25, 2026Bayern Munich has reached the final of the DFB-Pokal for the first time in six years after seeing off Bayer Leverkusen 2-0 in the semifinals.
