Good evening, all, and welcome to our LIVE commentary of Bayern Munich v VfL Wolfsburg as the defending champs begin their campaign for a third successive title.

One suspects it may just be a question of how many Bayern will win by, now.

GOAL! What a cracking goal from Arjen Robben. He picks the ball up in midfield, plays some cute passes, gets the ball back from Lewandowski and lashes it home past Grun.

Aaron Hunt is replaced by Arnold at half-time for Wolfsburg. Not an auspicious start to his career there then.

Still up for more Ice Bucket Challenges? Like to see mascots embarrassed? Bayern have good news for you!

Half-time. That slender lead doesn't reflect Bayern's true dominance so far this match.

Mis-hit from Goetze but Dante does well to keep it in. Wolfsburg finally manage to push up towards their own half before losing possession again once more.

Wolfsburg under real pressure here just before half-time, with successive corners conceded.

Corner to Bayern - taken by Robben. It's cleared, but Robben takes up the opportunity to run at Rodriguez a bit more.

That goal was coming. Arjen Robben has looked extremely bright so far this half, and finally wore down the Wolfsburg defence.

GOAL! Finally! Mueller is claiming the final touch, but the hard work was done by the mazy and powerful run of Arjen Robben.

Wolfsburg continue to defend in numbers, marking closely, but not managing to spark anything on the break.

Arjen Robben has four men crowding him out as he races into the box - it's a tactic that's working so far.

Bayern are asserting their dominance more and more now - but will those near-misses rattle Lewandowski?

And another good save from Grun - this time tipping Lewandowski's shot over the bar.

Great goalkeeping from Grun - terrific diagonal ball from Alaba, Mueller shoots, Grun bats it away and Lewandowski simply can't get the rebound.
