Coman, who scored Bayern's winner in the 2020 final, equalized in the last minute to prevent the Bavarian powerhouse from slumping to its second consecutive defeat after its 4-2 loss to promoted Bochum in the Bundesliga on Saturday.

Bayern, which had come from behind to win 6-2 on its previous trip to Salzburg in the group stage last season, was forced to do it again after Chukwubuike Adamu's 21st-minute opener for the Austrian champions.

Salzburg was playing in the Champions League knockout phase for the first time, and the home team showed no sign of fear against the six-time European champion.

Adamu was only playing due to an injury to Noah Okafor, who went off in the 12th. The 20-year-old Adamu eluded Niklas Sule and curled his shot inside the right post after a long ball from Mohamed Camara found Karim Adeyemi on the right wing.

Adeyemi, reportedly a transfer target for Bayern's Bundesliga rival Borussia Dortmund, surged past Lucas Hernandez before American midfielder Brenden Aaronson helped the ball onto Adamu, who swept it in.

Sven Ulreich, in Bayern's goal for the injured Manuel Neuer, did well to save an effort from Brenden Aaronson minutes later.

The home side had a penalty appeal before the break, after Benjamin Pavard's attempted clearance caught Adeyemi, too. A VAR check decided in favor of the Bayern defender.

Bayern pushed hard after the interval, pegging the home players back and restricting their counterattacking opportunities.

Coman drew a good save from Philipp Kohn in the 73rd, and the Salzburg keeper did even better to deny Leroy Sane and gather the rebound ahead of the Bayern forward minutes later.

Pavard produced a vital block to deny Adamu a second goal in the 81st, and the home fans were to rue to the miss when Coman beat Kohn at the near post to fire in the equalizer from Pavard's hopeful cross.
