Bayern fire 23 shots with 75% possession but can only draw with bottom-side Heidenheim

  • Bayern München dominated 1. FC Heidenheim at home — 75% possession, 23 shots, 7 on target — yet the match ended 3-3, with Heidenheim's Budu Zivzivadze scoring twice from just 2 attempts.
  • Leon Goretzka also scored twice for Bayern, but the Bundesliga's bottom side (23 points, 32 played) held the already-confirmed champions to a share of the spoils.
  • Bayern (83 points, 32 played) are 60 points clear of Heidenheim — the result is a stark illustration of how total statistical dominance does not guarantee results.
