Outstanding performance
FC Bayern München•MidfielderBayern Munich were left to rue a catastrophic collapse in the first half that saw them trail 0-2 to Heidenheim before they had found their footing. Zivzivadze's 22nd-minute opener and Dinkçi's second just before the half-hour mark put the visitors in command, and for long stretches it looked as though Bayern's overwhelming possession — 75% and 677 passes to Heidenheim's 227 — would count for nothing against a disciplined low block. The turning point came just before the break when Leon Goretzka pulled one back, and Vincent Kompany's decision to send on four substitutes at half-time — including Harry Kane and Michael Olise — reshaped the game entirely. Goretzka completed his brace on 57 minutes to level, but just as Bayern pressed for a winner, Zivzivadze struck again on 76 minutes to stun the home crowd, only for a chaotic 90th-minute own goal from Heidenheim goalkeeper Diant Ramaj — who had already picked up a yellow card in a heated halftime argument — to earn Bayern a point they barely deserved on the balance of the first half. For Heidenheim, so close to a historic away win at the Allianz; for Bayern, a dropped point that will sting given their 23 shots and statistical dominance.

League leaders Bayern München host bottom-placed Heidenheim at the Allianz Arena in a clash of polar opposites — champions in cruise control versus a side desperately clinging to Bundesliga survival. With Bayern averaging over three goals per game at home and Heidenheim collecting just one point from their last five away trips, this looks like a high-scoring afternoon in Munich.
