Bayern Munich comfortably dispatched second-tier Ulm 4-0 in the German Cup on Friday. But all three other Bundesliga teams needed extra time or penalties to overcome lower-tier opponents on a night of near upsets.

Thomas Mueller scored twice in the first 15 minutes for Bayern before Kingsley Coman and substitute Harry Kane added two more late on to give new coach Vincent Kompany a win in his first competitive game in charge.

But Hoffenheim, St Pauli and Mainz had to work harder before booking their place in the next round. Hoffenheim struggled most at third-tier Wurzburger Kickers.

Hoffenheim went behind after 11 minutes, but an own goal eight minutes later took the game to extra time. Wurzburg led again after scoring in the 100th minute, but Marius Buelter equalised for Hoffenheim in the 107th to take the game to penalty kicks.

Wurzburg captain Dominik Meisel was the only player to miss from the spot as Hoffenheim won the shootout 5-3.

In the French League, Paris Saint-Germain got their post-Kylian Mbappe era off to a winning start at home on Friday, beating Le Havre 4-1.

However, the scoreline was more comfortable than the performance suggested, with PSG’s last three goals coming in the final five minutes of the game.
