Bayern continue to pursue the 6 of 6 schedule.
The German grandmaster won the European Super Cup after a difficult 2-1 victory over Sevilla at the Pushkash Arena in Budapest.
The Champions League winner beat the Europa League winner in extra time.
Argentine Lucas Ocampos opened the scoring for Sevilla from a penalty in the 13th minute.
Leon Goretska tied 21 minutes and regulation time ended 1: 1.
In the 99th minute on the field in the composition of “Bayern” Xavi Martínez appeared as a substitute. 5 minutes later he scored with a header for the final 2: 1
Until Wednesday morning, the Spanish footballer was considered safe to leave the Bavarians.
His return to Athletic (Bilbao) was expected to be a matter of procedure.
And suddenly, to everyone’s surprise, the midfielder was in the “Bayern” group for the match for the European Super Cup.
It turned out that Munich wants 10 million euros for Martinez, whose contract expires next summer.
The situation astonished Athletic, who thought they would regain the midfielder as a free agent after his resignation.
The European Super Cup is a №4 trophy for Bayern this year after the German title and cup and the Champions League.
On September 30, the Bavarians will compete with Borussia (Dortmund) for the fifth medal: the German Super Cup. The last they can win is from the World Club in December.
