Bayern Munich 3-1 PSG: Bundesliga champions win ICC encounter
Timothy Weah, Renato Sanches and Joshua Zirkzee on target

Bayern Munich hit three second-half goals as they beat Paris Saint-Germain 3-1 on Saturday in an International Champions Cup fixture in Austria.
PSG were without their World Cup winners, but they did start Adrien Rabiot, who refused to serve as a reserve for the French squad. Bayern were without their legion of German internationals, despite the national team's early exit in Russia.
PSG had the best of the first half and took the lead with a 31st-minute goal by American Timothy Weah, the 18-year-old son of Liberia legend George Weah.
Bayern dominated the second half and struck three times in 18 minutes. Spaniard Javier Martinez opened the scoring past Gianluigi Buffon, the Italian veteran who joined PSG this summer.
Portuguese midfielder Renato Sanches and 17-year-old Dutch striker Joshua Zirkzee added the other two, after Buffon had gone off.
