JEJU — Jeju vs Bayern finished 2-1 to Bayern Munich in a club friendly on Friday, with Felipe Chávez, Chang-Min Lee and Bastian Assomo all on the scoresheet in a quick-moving first half. ESPN’s match report showed Bayern taking the lead before Jeju equalized, then Bayern restored control before the break.

The result gave Bayern a useful test away from home. They held 69% possession and landed 5 shots on goal, while Jeju worked harder for fewer openings and finished with 3 shots on target. Small margins. That was enough.

Early goals set the pace in Jeju vs Bayern

Bayern struck first through Felipe Chávez in the 11th minute. Jeju answered four minutes later when Chang-Min Lee made it 1-1 in the 15th minute, and the home side briefly found a foothold in the game.

Bastian Assomo settled it before halftime. His goal in the 41st minute restored Bayern’s lead, and Jeju never found another equalizer after the interval. ESPN listed the match as a club friendly and showed the final score at Jeju United 1, Bayern Munich 2.

Both sides made heavy use of their benches. Jeju changed personnel throughout the second half, while Bayern rotated several players after the interval, including T. Binder, S. Boey, N. Brown, M. Cardozo, A. Ibrahimovic, J. Kimmich, A. Pavlovic, J. Tah, and L. Díaz according to the match timeline.

Why the numbers matter

The possession split told the story. Bayern controlled 69% of the ball and completed 575 accurate passes at 89%, compared with Jeju’s 16 accurate passes at 74% in the team totals provided by ESPN. Bayern also won 5 corners to Jeju’s 2 and created 1 big chance, while Jeju forced the visitors to defend through spells rather than through sustained pressure.

For supporters tracking preseason form, the game offered a clean look at how Bayern handled an opponent willing to stay compact and counter when space opened. The scoreline stayed close, but Bayern spent more time on the front foot and got the decisive moments before halftime.

Jeju’s attack did create moments of threat. The match timeline showed Matheus Aias, Choi, Cinari and Lee involved in a busy opening phase, but Bayern’s structure held after the equalizer. On the other side, Bayern’s own chance map showed Palhinha shooting early and Chávez converting when the opening came.

What stood out in the stats

Jeju finished with 31% possession, 3 shots on goal, 2 corners and 24 saves combined across the keepers listed in the report, while Bayern ended with 2 goals from 5 shots on target. J. Heo made 4 saves for Jeju and J. Urbig made 3 for Bayern, another sign that both sides had to stay alert even in a friendly.

The match also gave Bayern a chance to test shape and depth against a team that matched them early in the final third. The final minute of the report did not add another goal. It left Bayern with the win, and Jeju with a clear picture of how narrow the margin was once Chávez and Assomo had done the damage.
