Summary Bayern beat Manchester United 1-0 in a final pre-season test for both sides on Sunday.
MUNICH (AFP) - Javi Martinez s second-half header earned Bayern Munich a 1-0 victory over Manchester United at the Allianz Arena on Sunday in a final pre-season test for both sides ahead of the new campaign.
Spain international Martinez nodded in from a corner on 59 minutes as the German champions overcame a lacklustre display from Jose Mourinho s side, who kick off the Premier League at home to Leicester City on Friday.
Marcus Rashford and Victor Lindelof returned for United after their post-World Cup break, although the visitors lost Eric Bailly to injury after the interval following a collision with Serge Gnabry.
Mourinho remains hopeful of strengthening his side in the transfer window before the August 9 deadline, with Brazil international midfielder Fred the club s top signing this summer.
"My CEO knows what I want for quite a long time," Mourinho told German TV ahead of the game. "I know he tries to do the best for me, and I still have a few days to wait and see what is going to happen."
Bayern, under new coach Niko Kovac, will head back to their training camp in Tegernsee ahead of next weekend s German Super Cup against Eintracht Frankfurt.
