Second-string Bayern held by Heidenheim before PSG clash

Bayern made seven changes to the side who lost 5-4 in a wild first leg in the French capital on Tuesday and were down 2-0 in the first half to goals from Budu Zivzivadze and Eren Dinkci.

Bayern roared back from a 3-0 deficit to win 4-3 last week at Mainz and this time around Leon Goretzka scored twice to level things up with half an hour remaining.

Zivzivadze scored again to put Heidenheim back in front but substitute Michael Olise scored in the 10th minute of stoppage time to snatch a point for the hosts.

Goalscorer Goretzka admitted Bayern's thoughts were already on Wednesday's clash with defending champions PSG, telling DAZN: "You can see how fired up everyone is. We're looking forward to the game and we want to reach the final."

Coach Vincent Kompany once again named a heavily changed line-up, leaving seven starters from Tuesday's match including Harry Kane, Olise, Joshua Kimmich and Luis Diaz on the bench.

With Heidenheim needing a win to have any chance of beating the drop, the visitors started frantically, pinning Bayern back with a series of corners.

Heidenheim broke through after 22 minutes when Zivzivadze turned the ball off the post and in from a corner.

Dinkci added another nine minutes later, storming into the box and taking a touch on a Marnon Busch pass to round Bayern goalkeeper Jonas Urbig and tap home.

Bayern were below their best but pulled a goal back before half-time from a set-piece. With dead-ball specialists Kimmich and Olise cooling their heels on the bench, Goretzka unleashed a dipping shot into the top right corner.

The goal was Goretzka's first from a free-kick since 2017 when he played for Schalke. Goretzka scored from a corner to have Bayern level but Zivzivadze's goal with 14 minutes remaining put the visitors back in front.

Olise had the last word, however, his shot bouncing off the post and in off goalkeeper Diant Ramaj's back to make sure Bayern avoided a second league defeat of the season.
