20-year old Nigeria-born striker scores historic Champions League goal

However, Kingsley Coman scored a 90th-minute equaliser at Salzburg to salvage a 1-1 draw for a below-par Bayern Munich in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie.

Julian Nagelsmann's side received a wave of criticism after a sensational 4-2 Bundesliga defeat to Bochum at the weekend, and they were almost on the wrong end of another upset in Austria on Wednesday.

Junior Adamu looked to have scored the decisive goal after 21 minutes in what was the hosts' first ever game in the knockout stages of the Champions League.

Salzburg were denied a famous win late on, though, as Coman stole in at the back post to put Bayern in control ahead of the return leg next month.

Bayern were punished for a sloppy start when Adamu, who replaced the injured Noah Okafor early on, finished past Sven Ulreich from just inside the penalty area after an incisive counter-attacking move.

Brenden Aaronson was denied by Ulreich soon after, while at the other end Leroy Sane flashed wide from a promising position.

Serge Gnabry saw two efforts blocked and Coman headed straight at Philipp Kohn as Bayern failed to pull level before the interval.

Bayern scarcely improved after the break, with their first notable efforts not coming until shortly after the 70-minute mark as Kohn denied Coman and Sane in quick succession. 

However, when Benjamin Pavard superbly blocked Adamu's goalbound shot after Ulreich had denied Karim Adeyemi, it set the stage for Coman to break Salzburg hearts by firing past Kohn.
