Bayern beat Mainz, share Bundesliga lead with Dortmund

–

Neutral summary

Bayern Munich secured a narrow 2-1 victory over Mainz at the MEWA Arena in the ninth round of the 2026-27 Bundesliga season. Joshua Kimmich scored both goals for the visitors, while Harry Kane contributed two assists. Mainz had a goal from Lee Jae-sung ruled out, and his South Korean compatriot Kim Min-jae stayed on the Bayern bench, meaning the two players did not face each other. Lee started the match and was substituted in the 63rd minute for Paul Nebel. With nine rounds played, Bayern and Borussia Dortmund are tied on 21 points at the top of the standings after both won on Saturday. The two clubs drew 2-2 against each other last week. Several outlets noted that Bayern won without needing to produce their best performance, and there is concern over the fitness of goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.
