Moments later, the doctor signalled that all was well. Musiala then walked off appearing dazed and dizzy.

Eberl spoke to "Bild" after the match: "He is fine, and that is the most important thing." The words eased fears about a player who looked affected by the searing heat, with temperatures hitting 33 degrees Celsius in Munich.

According to "Sport 1", Musiala suffered dizziness and circulatory problems brought on by the heat. Bayern's doctors carried out initial examinations that revealed no worrying indications.

The player will rest over the next two days to recover. The club will monitor his condition before setting a date for his return to training.
