Joy of playing trumps at Bayern Munich. After 4 minutes, Lewandowski opened the crazy afternoon with a heel, cleverly introduced by Upamecano.
With high pressing, the Rekordmeister grabbed his opponent by the throat. Lewandowski doubled on the half hour and then things moved quickly.
Müller and twice Gnabry quickly extended the bonus. After 37 minutes, the Leverkusen scoreboard gave the visitors a 0-5 lead.
“This was our best half in years. With 5 goals we knew that the spoils were already in,” said Robert Lewandowski afterwards. “After the break, we mainly controlled the game.”
Said, so done: in the second half the foot went off the accelerator at Bayern. Schick was lucky enough to make the honor savior for Leverkusen.
Bayern lead by 1 point over Dortmund in the standings. Leverkusen follows 3 points from the number 1.
Bayern will play against Jan Vertonghen’s Benfica in the Champions League next week.
