16:58 | Lima, Aug. 17.

Peruvian striker Claudio Pizarro scored a late goal to help Bayern Munich grab a 4-1 win over Preussen Münster in the first round of the DFB Pokal on Sunday afternoon at the Preußenstadion.

The Bavarian side managed to erase some of the disappointment from Pep Guardiola's side's DFL Supercup defeat to Borussia Dortmund - and get their hunt for a third consecutive Pokal success under way.

Germany’s World Cup final goalscorer Mario Götze opened the scoring on the 17th minute. Shortly after that, Müller managed to kick the ball into the back of the net 29 minutes into the game.

Austrian David Alaba got on the scoresheet early in the second half with a shot from outside the area before Claudio Pizarro scored with a delightful chip.

Claudio Pizarro came on to replace Xherdan Shaqiri and added a fourth goal for last season’s DFB Pokal winners 17 minutes from time, assisted by Müller.
