Schalke 04 v Bayern München Match Report, 3/3/20

Bayern Munich are into the DFB-Pokal semi-finals for an 11th successive season thanks to a hard-fought 1-0 win at Bundesliga rivals Schalke on Tuesday.

David Wagner's Schalke certainly had their moments at the Veltins Arena, especially in the first half, but Bayern were more clinical and their superior quality told in the end to continue the defence of their crown.

Despite having far more of the ball, Bayern were fortunate to survive a few first-half scares as Guido Burgstaller proved particularly dangerous when hitting the crossbar and having a goal chalked off, but the visitors went into the break ahead thanks to Joshua Kimmich's strike.
