<p>Bayern Munich's <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/jamal-musiala-bayern-munich-benfica-harry-kane-assist-vincent-kompany-vital-win/blt06f06ae3c152fe35" target="_blank">1-0 Champions League win over Benfica</a> on Wednesday evening was overshadowed by a medical emergency in the stands of the Allianz Arena during the clash. On Thursday morning, the Bundesliga side announced that the fan had died en route to the hospital. During the game, the majority of Bayern fans in the Sudkurve, the south stand of the Allianz Arena where the team's ultras are located, became quiet and stopped chanting as the fan was being attended to by medical personnel.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>On Thursday, Bayern's announcement read: "FC Bayern in mourning: Death overshadows 1-0 win against Benfica.</p><p>"In the Champions League league phase match against Benfica, FC Bayern’s 1-0 victory was overshadowed by a sad event. A medical emergency in the stands of the Allianz Arena cast a shadow over the game right from the start. Out of consideration, the Südkurve refrained from its usual vociferous support for their team, and the club also reduced its coverage of the match.</p><p>"Around an hour after the final whistle, the German record champions received the sad news that the fan had died on the way to hospital. FC Bayern is in mourning side by side with the fan’s relatives."</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">FC Bayern in mourning: Death overshadows 1-0 win against Benfica.<br><br>In the Champions League league phase match against Benfica, FC Bayern’s 1-0 victory was overshadowed by a sad event.

WHAT BAYERN MUNICH'S STATEMENT SAID

<p>Bayern Munich boss Vincent Kompany also opened up about the medical emergency. He said: "It's difficult to talk about football at the moment. After the game, we didn't celebrate as much as we normally do. Of course, the boys only noticed it after the game. We always hope that our fans and all of them go home safe and sound. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case today."</p><p>Bavarians legend Thomas Muller also spoke about the incident and said: "We noticed it, how and wherefore. I think we saw right before kick-off what would have been possible in terms of atmosphere. The whole group in the south curve was jumping. But of course, when something like that happens, it's also a nice sign of solidarity that the fans don't put their own party first, but show a bit of humanity."</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Kompany's men will be in action next when they face off against FC St. Pauli in the Bundesliga on Saturday, November 9. Bayern ultras and the club may plan a tribute for the fan whose identity has been kept private as the club and the family of the deceased mourn their death.</p>
