However, these great achievements for Bayern Munich seemed to have come at a price that was paid by Bayern forward Kingsley Coman who scored the opening goal of the night that gave Bayern an early lead in the game.
Coman was substituted due to an injury sustained in the first half by Thomas Muller who went on to also score for Bayern that game. It is reported that he sustained a capsule tear in his left knee and will be unable to assist his team as they continue their Champions League campaign for “some time” according to Bayern.
