Another assist came in the 92nd minute when he found Leon Goretzka, who curled the ball into the top-left corner to seal the victory for Bayern Munich.
The victory not only lifted Bayern Munich's spirits but also boosted confidence in their preparation for upcoming matches in the league and the knockout stages of the Champions League.
