Bayern Munich pounded Sand in the second round of the DFB-Pokal Frauen on Sunday to continue a bright start to the 2024/25 season.
Last season the Bavarians ended runners-up after a 0-2 defeat to VfL Wolfsburg on May 9th. This year, the defending Bundesliga champions will be hoping for a shot at cup redemption.
Jovana Damnjanović, starting in place of Lea Schüller at striker, got the scoring going early in just the 7th minute, and Georgia Stanway added a second midway through the first half (26’).
It was not until the second half that the floodgates opened, however, with successive goals by Linda Dallmann (58’), Giulia Gwinn (69’), Julia Zigiotti Olme (72’), before Schüller capped off the rout in the 89th minute.
Highlights for the match and all its goals are available via FC Bayern TV.
The match marked debuts for forward Weronika Zawistowska (24) and defender Luzie Zähringer (16).
The draw for the next round of the DFB-Pokal will occur on September 16th. Bayern play next in a season home debut in Frauen-Bundesliga action against RB Leipzig on Friday, September 13th.
