Bayern Win Final Friendly 4-2 at Heidenheim as Kimmich Sits Out and Musiala Leaves Hurt

The match served as Bayern’s last tune-up before the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup and left fresh fitness questions over two key players

Overview

  • Bayern completed their final preseason friendly with a 4-2 victory at Heidenheim on Tuesday after heavy early rotation and a senior-heavy second half that secured the result.
  • The club confirmed Joshua Kimmich did not play because of adductor discomfort picked up in training and was withdrawn as a precaution.
  • Jamal Musiala left the match after a worrying knock six minutes after coming on and his condition is pending further scans and official medical updates.
  • Vincent Kompany used the game to evaluate youngsters and fringe players, with Nathaniel Brown scoring the late fourth and Felipe Chávez and Tim Binder drawing positive notice.
  • Bayern now turn directly to the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup against Borussia Dortmund in four days and will have to weigh match rhythm against avoiding further injuries when naming the squad.
