Fireworks at De Kuip: Feyenoord Stun Bayern Munich with a 3-0 Masterclass

Feyenoord lit up De Kuip with a sensational 3-0 win over Bayern Munich, earning three crucial points in the Champions League. Despite a delayed kick-off and a cagey opening, the home side struck first through Santiago Giménez. A long pass from Smal caught Bayern’s Kim off guard, and the Mexican striker smashed past Manuel Neuer to give Feyenoord the lead.

Bayern dominated the remainder of the half, piling on the pressure as Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala squandered chances to equalize. Just before halftime, a turning point arrived when Calvin Stengs was fouled by Guerreiro in the box. Giménez coolly converted the resulting penalty, doubling Feyenoord’s advantage and leaving Bayern shell-shocked at the break.

The second half saw relentless Bayern pressure, but Feyenoord’s defense, anchored by Bijlow’s heroic goalkeeping, stood firm. Kane missed another gilt-edged opportunity, Musiala came close, and Leroy Sané struck the post, epitomizing Bayern’s frustration.

In the 89th minute, Ayase Ueda sealed the victory, calmly finishing from a Milambo pass to make it 3-0. While Bayern’s 2.80 xG dwarfed Feyenoord’s 1.75, the scoreline reflected Feyenoord’s clinical finishing and a perfectly executed game plan.

This emphatic win puts Feyenoord in a strong position, while Bayern will rue their missed chances as they look to regroup in the next round.
