defended well and were solid when they had possession.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The 37-year-old recently returned to action last month following more than 10 months out after he broke his leg while skiing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/30\/00\/78398579-12807493-image-a-19_1701303734633.jpg\"

Elyounoussi again from the rebound<\/p>\n<p>But Bayern&#8217;s record 17-game winning streak in the group stage was ended by a Copenhagen team that kept its hopes of reaching the last 16 alive.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We didn&#8217;t risk enough,&#8217; Thomas Muller said.<\/p>\n<p>The Bavarians have secured top spot in the group on 13 points, with the Danish side second on five.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It&#8217;s only a few people who know what it takes to come here and get a point,&#8217; said Copenhagen&#8217;s man-of-the-match Rasmus Falk.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I&#8217;m so proud because it&#8217;s maybe one of the hardest places in the world to get a point.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Both teams needed time to settle with Bayern missing several key players through injury.<\/p>\n<p>Copenhagen had an early chance when Roony Bardghji&#8217;s 27th-minute shot sailed narrowly wide and Thomas Mueller&#8217;s close-range header for Bayern was saved by keeper Kamil Grabara.<\/p>\n<p>The visitors, whose solid backline has been key to their success this season, defended well and came close again two minutes after the restart through Diogo Goncalves&#8217; curled shot.<\/p>\n<p>The Danes can qualify for the knockout stages by beating Galatasaray, who are also on five points after drawing 3-3 with bottom club Manchester United, and they almost snatched a last-gasp winner.<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span><span>It&#8217;s All Kicking Off is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier
