The Bayern Munich star's display earned him the Man of the Match accolade, further cementing his reputation as one of football's brightest young talents.
Musiala's brilliance was evident throughout the match, capturing the admiration of many, including Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer.
Hainer expressed his desire for Musiala to remain at the club for the foreseeable future, likening him to Bayern legend Thomas Muller.
"We are committed to doing everything possible to keep him at Bayern for many years," Hainer stated in an interview with Tz journalist Mano Bonke.
"In my view, he has the potential to be the next Thomas Muller and stay with us for the next two decades."
Hainer praised Musiala's growth and development over recent years, noting that "many believe he will become the best player in the world someday."
He added, "Jamal truly values what he has at Bayern Munich, and we are fully aware of his immense value. We are determined to retain him long-term."
However, Bayern Munich face a challenge in holding onto Musiala, as top European clubs including FC Barcelona, Real Madrid, Liverpool FC, and Manchester City have all been linked with the youngster.
The next move for Musiala is expected to be costly, but it's clear that any team securing his services will be investing in a footballing prodigy.
