Luis Diaz secures his mark for Bayern Munich, capturing the title at the German Supercup during his debut | Football News

In a thrilling start to the German Supercup, Colombian winger Luis Diaz made his competitive debut for Bayern Munich, scoring in a hard-fought 2-1 away victory against Stuttgart. This match, the first of its kind since the Supercup was renamed in honor of football legend Franz Beckenbauer, saw Bayern’s Michael Olise and Harry Kane continue their dynamic attacking partnership, with Kane netting the opener in the 18th minute. Despite a spirited effort from Stuttgart, particularly in the latter stages of the second half, Bayern sealed the win through Diaz’s close-range header in the 77th minute, a goal celebrated in the style of his late Liverpool teammate Diogo Jota. The match concluded with a consolation goal for Stuttgart by Jamie Lewing in stoppage time. The triumph marked Kane’s second team trophy of his career, following his goal-scoring breakthrough in the Bundesliga last season. Bayern captain Joshua Kimmich hailed the team’s “deserved win” as a crucial message for the upcoming season, emphasizing the need to appreciate such victories. Bayern will open their Bundesliga campaign at home against Leipzig this Friday, with Stuttgart set to face Union Berlin in Berlin the following day.
