    Kim Min-jae goes in the book for hauling down Niclas Fullkrug. The Bayern defender was caught slightly wrong side there and didn't look the quickest as he chased the German international forward.

    Will those early second-half scares jolt Bayern back into life?

    Three chances in four minutes for the hosts. Bayern's defence look like they are still having a natter in the dressing room.

    This time Niclas Fullkrug gets in but hooks a left foot volley miles over. He should be hitting the target there.

    Another Bremen chance as Niclas Fullkrug's low cross finds Leonardo Bittencourt. The midfielder is stretching and sliding and prods his effort wide of the near stick.

    Better from the hosts, who go straight on the attack.

    They get in down the left and when Bayern only half clear Mitchell Weiser, has a crack at goal but just can't keep his left-foot effort down from the edge of the box.

    Jamal Musiala looks so dangerous when he gets the ball for Bayern. The Germany international weaves past a couple of Bremen players and gets a shot off that is partially blocked. Corner for the visitors.

    Joshua Kimmich beats the Bremen wall but his effort balloons up into the Bremen fans behind the goal.

    That was pretty awful.

    Harry Kane, who had a shot blocked a minute or so back, gets chopped down on the edge of the Bremen box. He doesn't fancy free-kick duties this time.

    Bayern threaten to slice through the home defence again as Jamal Musiala sets off on a dangerous run but Mitchell Weiser gets back to make two telling challenges to stop his former club in their tracks.

    He gets a huge cheer from the locals but the visitors get the ball back immediately.
