Overview

  • Serge Gnabry scored twice, with Michael Olise and Harry Kane also on target in a 4-0 home win over Union Berlin.
  • The victory opened a 12-point cushion at the top, with Borussia Dortmund playing later and able to trim the gap to nine.
  • Bayern reached 97 Bundesliga goals for the season and are four away from equalling the club’s 101-goal best from 1971–72, after netting three times in a seven-minute spell.
  • Kane moved to 31 league goals, leaving him 10 shy of Robert Lewandowski’s single-season record with seven matches remaining.
  • Despite injuries and suspensions that forced a youthful bench, Bayern maintained control, as the refereeing row from the Leverkusen draw lingered in pre-match comments from both clubs’ officials.
