📷 Mundo DeportivoLuis Díaz stars as Bayern beats Aston Villa in friendly
The Colombian winger scored a stunning goal in Hong Kong to secure the Bavarian side's 2-1 victory.
Luis Díaz was the highlight of the night in Hong Kong. The Colombian winger netted a spectacular second goal that sealed Bayern's 2-1 victory over Aston Villa in a friendly on Friday as part of the Audi Summer Tour, according to Mundo Deportivo.
With several substitutes fielded by both sides due to international players still on holiday, Kim Min-jae put Bayern ahead in the 36th minute. But the most eye-catching goal came in the 73rd, when Díaz received the ball on the left wing, cut inside with his right foot and fired in with great technique. The ball went in after hitting the crossbar.
Joao Gomes, recently signed by the Villans from Wolves, pulled one back in the 82nd with a stunning effort from outside the box—his first goal for Aston Villa. However, Unai Emery's side had no time to complete the comeback. Manuel Neuer, making his return, made a crucial save from Tammy Abraham late on.
