Manchester City emerged victorious from a battle of European titans on Wednesday, beating German champion Bayern Munich 2-1 in an international friendly viewed by 65,049 cheering fans at Tokyo's National Stadium.
Goals by James Mcatee and Aymeric Laporte were enough to see the treble winner to victory, sweeping both games of its Japan tour after beating Yokohama F. Marinos 5-3 on Sunday.
