Maximiliane Rall (67th minute) and England’s European champion Georgia Stanway (83rd and 90th + 8) scored for the Bayern soccer team. The Brazilian Nycole Raysla (42nd) and the Canadian Cloé Lacasse (59th) had previously worked out what was actually a safe lead for the hosts. The Brazilian Ana Vitória failed in the 89th minute with a penalty kick on FCB goalkeeper Maria Luisa Grohs.
A week earlier, coach Alexander Straus’ team had already won 2-1 in Group D against FC Rosengard from Sweden. Benfica had lost their first group game against this year’s finalists and favorites FC Barcelona 0-9. FC Bayern will not meet the Spaniards in the premier class until the end of November.
