What do you do when you have a man advantage for over 80 minutes in a game? The best bet would be to stretch the opposition and find spaces in between them, which is exactly what Frankfurt did to perfection for most of the game.

Instrumental in that tactic was Filip Kostic whose fortunate strike kicked off the night's scoring. He exposed Muller's lack of defensive nous and isolated Joshua Kimmich while combining with his team-mates and dictating play. The Serbian's ability to take players on as well as play some lovely passing football at times completely baffled a makeshift Bayern Munich defence.

Djibril Sow and Danny Da Costa were also instrumental at the other end putting in dangerous balls for the Bayern back four to deal with. Towards the end as the visitors tired, Frankfurt didn't let up and made sure of the points.
