Bayern Munich sit four points clear of Borussia Dortmund again after an entertaining 5-2 win over Eintracht Frankfurt.
There was nothing surprising about the pattern of the first period at the Allianz Arena, however, and Bayern were fully deserving of their comfortable half-time lead of 2-0, the excellent Muller setting up Leon Goretzka before then getting on the scoresheet himself.
Defensive lapses early in the second half showed a chink in Bayern’s armour, however, as Martin Hinteregger netted twice in quick succession from corners after Robert Lewandowski had made it 3-0, but Davies’ well-taken goal in the 61st minute was followed by an own goal by Frankfurt’s Austrian centre-back to ensure a home victory.
