体坛英语新闻：Bayern Munich beat San Paulo 2-0 in pre-season friendly

MUNICH, July 31 (Xinhua) -- Bayern Munich beat Sao Paulo 2-0 with second-half goals from substitutes on Wednesday to book an encounter with Manchester City in the Audi Cup final.

Manuel Pellegrini's Man City brushed aside AC Milan 5-3 in an earlier match on the same day.

Pep Guardiola fielded a strong line-up with Bastian Schweinsteiger, Phillip Lahm and Arjen Robben given starting berths.

But it was Mario Mandzukic, who came off the bench after the break, broke the deadlock in the 55th minute when he flicked in a cross from Arjen Robben.

Another substitute Mitchell Weiser showed great composure to slot home and double Bayern's advantage after Xherdan Shaqiri had seen his drive hit the post with four minutes left.

Two minutes later, San Paulo were awarded a penalty which was saved by Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.

The final between Bayern Munich and Manchester City will be held on Thursday.
