Good evening, all, and welcome to our LIVE commentary of Bayern Munich v VfL Wolfsburg as the defending champs begin their campaign for a third successive title.

Full-time! Well, that wasn't quite the second half we were expecting. Bayern should have had more goals, with that third one disallowed for no real reason - and if Wolfsburg shouldn't have had that Olic strike, they certainly should have expected better from Malanda and that horrendous failure. Good - if essentially unspectacular - start from the champs. Thanks for joining me this evening.

Bayern looking to run the clock down now and aren't all that keen on getting the ball into the box. They're happily holding it down in the corner.

Good run from Bernat down the left, and Grun does well to palm that away.

Three minutes of stoppage time and Mueller tries a cheeky little flick, but it's into the side netting.

Robben runs a good 40 yards and his shot skims the top of the crossbar.

Gaudino has worked really hard today - he gets a couple of minutes' extra rest as he's replaced by Höjbjerg.

Nasty-looking challenge on Rode there by Arnold.

Free header for Caliguiri, who leaps above Lahm but heads well wide.

Substitude Rode finishes with class thanks to another great ball in from Robben, but it's ruled out for offside - presumably Mueller, who's hovering.

Well, that's something that'll take us all a while to get over. Wolfsburg really should be level. Bayern fans are confident they'll wrap this up now.

Oh my GOODNESS. Malanda misses a hideous chance - he's in on goal thanks to Arnold, Neuer meets him, and when he follows up the rebound, with nobody near him, it's miles wide.

Lewandowski is replaced by Rode.

The corner's cleared by Badstuber, but Wolfsburg are still on the front foot, with De Bruyne still looking bright down the right.
