Summary[edit]

Dani Olmo put RB Leipzig into the lead after three minutes, with a low finish into the bottom right-hand corner of the net. Bayern Munich had a chance at the other end in the 10th minute after Serge Gnabry was put through on goal by Joshua Kimmich, but his effort was saved comfortably by Janis Blaswich. In the 15th minute, Gnabry came forward again for Bayern and played a ball across to Mathys Tel who forced a strong save from Blaswich. Eight minutes later, Gnabry and Tel combined again with Gnabry playing another ball across to Tel only for him to strike the ball too high over the goal. In the 44th minute, Leipzig doubled their lead through another goal from Olmo after he managed to evade defender Matthijs de Ligt before being left one-on-one with Sven Ulreich and slot the ball under the goalkeeper and into the net to make it 2–0 at halftime.^[4] As the second half progressed, Bayern continued to press for a goal with a wide effort from Leroy Sané, a save from Blaswich against Tel, and a missed opportunity from Jamal Musiala. Leipzig were awarded a penalty by referee Bastian Dankert in the 66th minute after defender Noussair Mazraoui appeared to have struck the ball with his hand inside the penalty area. Olmo scored the penalty down the bottom left-hand corner of the net to complete his hat-trick and make it 3–0. Benjamin Šeško nearly made it four in the 88th minute after being put through on goal by Fábio Carvalho, but his resulting effort was tipped over by Ulreich. The match concluded as Leipzig won the Supercup with a 3–0 victory.^[6]
