Bundesliga Bulletin: Bayern Munich extend lead at the top, Borussia Dortmund climbing
A fine performance saw Bayern Munich extend their lead at the top of the Bundesliga. Borussia Dortmund also won, but Borussia Mönchengladbach suffered another defeat as their dismal run under Marco Rose continues.
Did Bayern Munich win in the Bundesliga this weekend?
They did, and quite comfortably. They traveled to Werder Bremen, where they clinched the Bundesliga title last season, and it was another happy return for Hansi Flick's league leaders. Leon Goretzka, Serge Gnabry and, of course, Robert Lewandowski scored the goals in a 3-1 win. While Gnabry is showing signs that he is returning to his best at the stage of the season when it really matters, Bayern's star performer was Thomas Müller. He assisted Bayern's first two goals, the second of which was a classy control and pass for Gnabry. After their post-Qatar wobble, the champions appear to be back on track. And, after RB Leipzig were held to a 1-1 draw by Eintracht Frankfurt on Sunday, Bayern's lead is extended from two points to four — an important cushion with RB Leipzig hosting Bayern on April 3.
