Socceroos star Irankunda spares Bayern's blushes
Australia international Nestory Iranukunda continues to make a strong impression at Bayern Munich, scoring for the second match in a row to salvage a 1-1 draw for Vincent Kompany's men against fourht-tier Duren Merzenich.
The Bundesliga giant, which thumped FC Rottach-Egern 14-1 in Kompany's first game in charge, was unable to make it two wins from two against its German fourth-tier opponent.
Kompany fielded a starting XI featuring the likes of Leon Goretzka, Kim Min-Jae, Raphael Guerreiro and Eric Dier, but they fell behind to Rafael Garcia's strike five minutes before half-time.
Bayern made eight changes in the 66th minute and, three minutes later, one of them equalised as 18 year-old Irankunda brought it back on level terms.
Next up for Kompany's side is a trip to the Far East, where it will play Premier League side Tottenham in Seoul.
