Late drama denies Heidenheim famous win at Allianz Arena

Trailing at the break for the first time in a home league match under Kompany, Bayern responded decisively. The introduction of Harry Kane, Joshua Kimmich, Michael Olise and Luis Díaz changed the tempo completely.

In the 57th minute, Olise’s corner found Goretzka, who headed home his second goal to level the score at 2-2. Bayern were now in full control, but Heidenheim continued to threaten on the counter.

And then came another stunning twist. In the 76th minute, Zivzivadze once again showed his class, cutting in from the left and curling a sensational effort into the far corner in trademark Arjen Robben fashion to restore Heidenheim’s lead at 3-2.

What followed was a frantic finale. Bayern threw everything forward in search of an equalizer, while Heidenheim defended with incredible determination. Goalkeeper Diant Ramaj produced a series of outstanding saves to keep the visitors ahead, as wave after wave of Bayern attacks crashed against their resistance.

Nine minutes of stoppage time only heightened the tension. Heidenheim were seconds away from a famous victory - but football can be brutally cruel.

With what proved to be the final action of the match, Olise tried his luck from distance. Ramaj managed to push the ball onto the post, but from there it ricocheted back onto the goalkeeper and agonizingly over the line. The equalizer made it 3-3 and left Heidenheim players stunned in disbelief.

The final whistle confirmed a dramatic draw that felt like a win for Bayern - and a devastating loss for Heidenheim.

For the visitors, the consequences are significant. Instead of climbing closer to safety, they remain on 23 points, now two behind VfL Wolfsburg and three behind FC St. Pauli, both of whom still have to play.

Heidenheim had come within seconds of rewriting Bundesliga history as well, with a win by the last placed team over Bayern Munich (the last one came by Hannover in 2006) - but in the end, they were left with nothing but heartbreak in Munich.
