Bundesliga champions FC Bayern Munich have started off the 2014-15 campaign with the win of the Telekom Cup 2014 on Sunday.

Bayern advanced to the final at the Imtech Arena in Hamburg with a 5-4 win on penalties against Borussia Moenchengladbach yesterday, while fellow finalists VfL Wolfsburg went past hosts Hamburger SV 6-5 on penalties.

Bayern Munich missed the services of all their 2014 FIFA World Cup participants, but they had no difficulties to put a decent performance in the four team tournament.

Poland striker Robert Lewandowski put Bayern in the lead just four minutes into the final, when he headed home a well-timed cross by Franck Ribéry. Sebastian Rode increased the lead in the 15th minute, while Lewandowski scored his second goal of the day in the 20th minute to hand Bayern a comfortable 3-0 lead at half-time.

Bayern didn’t give away the match in the second half and registered a 3-0 win to claim their second Telekom Cup trophy.

Meanwhile, Hamburger SV won the 3rd Place Match against Borussia Moenchengladbach 3-1 courtesy to goals by Jacques Zoua (3′), Rafael van der Vaart (21′) and Kerem Demirbay (53′). Raffael (4′) scored the lone goal for Moenchengladbach.
