Wolfsburg vs. Bayern Munich, 2015 DFL-Supercup: Wolfsburg upset Bayern on penalties

Bayern Munich got the new season started off by suffering an upset, losing the DFL-Supercup on penalties to Wolfsburg. A shocking last-minute equalizer from Nicklas Bendtner wiped out Bayern’s early second-half goal from Arjen Robben.

It seemed fated from there that Bayern would win, with the German giants controlling the match thoroughly -- until Bendtner made his presence felt. With only moments left before the final whistle, the Danish substitute striker got right in front of goal to receive a cross from De Bruyne, and somehow found the crack between Neuer and the near post to stun Bayern and level the score at one apiece.

Also, full credit to Costa, because that was quite a burst of speed to create space and a nice cross to set up the goal. This was his first competitive match for Bayern, and the early results are looking pretty good for the young Brazilian.

If this first-half moment, there’s still some rust to shake off:

Fortunately, there’s still some time for these guys to get things right before the matches count in the standings. In the meantime, though, they should maybe spend some more time working on things in training, because that was a bad look.
