The Bundesliga champions survived a late fightback against the DFB-Pokal champions, beating them 5-3.

19-year-old Jamal Musiala opened the scoring for Bayern in the 14th minute when he took advantage of some Leipzig uncertainty in the box and fired low into the bottom corner.

Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig are edging closer to bringing in new players.

The German giants reportedly could both welcome new additions to their sides before the DFL-SuperCup.

Plettenberg also suggested that Leipzig could strengthen their side by bringing in David Raum from Hoffenheim quite soon. Leipzig had already approached Hoffenheim for the player's services, but their first offer was considered too low.
