With Bayern Munich up 2-1, Vincent Kompany started the second half by substituting in Kim Min-jae for Jonathan Tah, who had picked up a first half yellow card.
That sub probably ended up stinging a few minutes later as Josip Stanišić had to leave the match due to injury. It appeared as if Stanišić injured his knee, but he was able to walk off the pitch on his own power:
Sacha Boey checked in for Stanišić
and played right-back, while Konrad Laimer slid over to play left-back.
