Bayern Munich 0 Borussia Dortmund 0 (AET, 4-3 pens): Guardiola's reign ends in victory

Pep Guardiola's last match as Bayern Munich boss ended in a dramatic penalty shoot-out victory over Borussia Dortmund in the DFB-Pokal final on Saturday.

A 0-0 draw after extra-time ensured the contest was decided by spot-kicks, Bayern winning 4-3 as Manuel Neuer's save from Sven Bender and Sokratis' strike against the post proved decisive, meaning Joshua Kimmich's miss went unpunished.

Both sides missed good chances early in the second half, with Robert Lewandowski stretching to divert Ribery's cross just wide and Aubameyang shooting over from a presentable opening after being found by Marco Reus.

Another effort from Lewandowski was too high when he collected possession following Muller's purposeful run, while Burki impressively saved a deflected Ribery strike.

Mats Hummels' last appearance for Dortmund before joining Bayern ended through injury and he was replaced by Matthias Ginter after 78 minutes, before Tuchel's men missed a golden opportunity to snatch a late winner.

It was again Aubameyang who had the chance, but he failed to adjust quickly enough to convert Lukasz Piszczek's cross and struck wide.

Penalties saw Bender thwarted by Neuer and Sokratis strike the foot of the post as Dortmund missed two of their first three efforts, but Burki's save from Kimmich gave them hope.
