Ghanaian striker Kwasi Okyere Wriedt was in action for Bayern Munich in their 2-1 win over Borussia Mönchengladbach at the Allian Arena on Saturday.

Wriedt climbed off the bench to help the league leaders secure their 31st win of the league campaign.

Teenage striker Joshua Zirkzee opened the scoring for the home side in the 27th minute after a huge blunder by Glacbach goalkeeper.

Gladbach were level before the breakthrough another error, France defender Pavard sliding in to clear Patrick Herrmann's low cross but only planting into his own net.

Manuel Neuer had to make several saves in the second half but more sleepy defending led to the late winner.

A crossfield ball should have been cut out but Pavard was able to reach it and cut back for Goretzka to finish from a few yards out.

The win took Bayern Munich closer to clinching the 2019/20 Bundesliga title.
