Harry Kane contributed two assists as Bayern Munich were held to a 2-2 draw by Augsburg in a chaotic Bundesliga match. The game, which took place at Augsburg's WWK Arena, saw Augsburg score first through Robin Fellhauer just eight seconds into the match, setting a new Bundesliga record for the fastest goal. Bayern equalized shortly after the break with Ismael Saibari, but Augsburg quickly regained the lead through Rodrigo Ribeiro.
Nathaniel Brown secured a point for Bayern with a close-range finish after impressive play by Kane in the 80th minute. This was Bayern's first defeat at home en route to the Bundesliga title last season, as they previously lost 2-1 to Augsburg. Bayern's season started poorly, with Luis Diaz playing the ball back to Manuel Neuer from kick-off, leading to Fellhauer's rapid goal.
The video assistant referee controversially ruled out a Diaz scissor-kick as offside, denying Bayern an early lead. Despite Bayern having two clear chances to score beyond Augsburg's goalkeeper Finn Dahmen, both efforts were disallowed for offside.
