Bayern Munich showed their grit at the Allianz Arena on Tuesday night, coming from behind to beat Sporting CP 3-1 and stretching an astonishing unbeaten home run at this stage of the UEFA Champions League to 35 matches. It wasn't always smooth, but Bayern rarely do drama the easy way anyway.
Coming into the game, their shocking 3-1 loss to Arsenal in the Champions League on Matchday 5 stood as their only defeat in all competitions this season. You could tell early on they were out to make a statement.
Harry Kane wasted no time testing the waters, firing over inside three minutes, and it just kept coming from there. The England striker hit the post after dancing past two defenders, while 17-year-old Lennart Karl, already making headlines in Europe, kept Rui Silva busy with sharp efforts from close range.
