Frankfurt shocked Bayern with an early goal in the final
Ante Rebic caused an upset in the DFB Pokal final, scoring past Bayern Munich in the 11th minute to make it 0-1 to Frankfurt.
The favourites to win the final in Berlin were evidently Bayern, due to their dominance in Germany, and the fact that they recently won the Bundesliga, but Frankfurt shocked everyone when they opened the scoring early on.
Nico Kovac's side scored in the 11th minute, capitalising on a sloppy mistake from James Rodriguez. The loanee was complacent on the ball in his own half, and Kevin-Prince Boateng pounced on him, stealing the ball in the Bayern half.
Boateng slotted a lovely ball through for Ante Rebic, who showed great strength to power into the box. He hit a fine finish into the bottom left corner, showing great accuracy to put it past Sven Ulreich.
The goal made it 0-1 to Kovac's team, and gave them something to defend early on.
