Musiala marks special moment in Bayern Munich's UCL adventure 💫

A familiar face is leading Bayern Munich's latest Champions League charge.

Vincent Kompany's side finally broke the deadlock just two minutes into the second half of their opening league phase encounter with Bodø/Glimt through Jamal Musiala.

The Germany international produced a superb strike on the turn to etch his name into the Bundesliga giants' record books with their 900th goal in European competitions.

Were that not special enough, Musiala's opener also marked a triumphant personal return after a number of health scares during the Bavarians' pre-season campaign.

He collapsed twice in the space of four days while playing in friendlies with RB Leipzig and Heidenheim which were diagnosed as a short-term 'neurological dysfunction'.

The 23-year-old's condition caused temporary but treatable seizures which Bayern were aware of last season and later attributed to a recent change in his medication.

Since recovering, he has been steadily eased back into action and he could not have asked for a better moment, or milestone, on which to confirm his return to form.
