Bayern Munich survived a huge scare in the DFB-Pokal as Fatih Kaya almost sent them packing with a stunning two-goal show — www.isagoal.com reports.
The Wehen Wiesbaden captain scored twice in just six minutes, rocking the Bavarians and giving the third-tier side real hope of pulling off a giant-killing.
According to reports from FC Bayern, Kaya admitted the emotions were mixed, saying, “It’s bitter. Obviously I’m happy about the two goals, that’s something special. Nevertheless, I’d prefer to be in the second round.”
Wehen started the night with a clear game plan, throwing everything into their defensive shape and then hitting Bayern with direct, long passes into dangerous areas.
The strategy worked brilliantly when Kaya pounced, first reducing the deficit and then leveling the score in front of a raucous home crowd.
For a while, the shock seemed possible, with Bayern struggling to contain the energy and determination of the lower-league side.
But Harry Kane had the final say, heading home late to secure a narrow 3-2 victory and break Wehen’s resistance.
Kaya reflected with pride, insisting the team showed courage and proved they could compete against one of Europe’s strongest squads.
