Bayern Munich secured a 2-1 victory over VfB Stuttgart on Saturday, capturing the German Supercup with goals from star striker Harry Kane and new addition Luis Diaz. The team exhibited finesse and tactical superiority, setting a positive tone for the Bundesliga season.
Nick Woltemade, Stuttgart's standout forward, was on Bayern's radar, yet it was Kane who capitalized on a blunder by Luca Jaquez to open the scoring in the 18th minute. Stuttgart pressed for an equalizer, with Woltemade coming close, only to be thwarted by Bayern's veteran goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.
Neuer, at 39 years old, delivered a masterful performance, including a crucial save in the 75th minute. Diaz sealed the victory with a headed goal in the 77th minute. Stuttgart managed a consolation goal via Jamie Leweling, but it was too late to change the outcome.
