Wolfsburg put up an intriguing performance to win the German Super Cup on penalties at the expense of Bayern Munich. Former Arsenal striker, Nicklas Bendtner was the hero of the night as he grabbed a late equaliser to force penalties [after Arjen Robben had given Bayern the lead]  and also scoring the decisive penalty kick that gave Wolfsburg victory.

Bayern had the better of the game, but Wolfsburg wasted some of the better chances before earning a late lifeline and then completing a hat trick of Super Cup defeats for Bayern coach Pep Guardiola.

Wolfsburg were flawless from the spot, including Bendtner, who sent his effort into the top corner to earn last season’s cup winners the trophy.
