BAYERN IN AUTO-PILOT MODE
It sounds crazy for a team to be time-wasting before the 60th minute mark, but that's how good Bayern are. They are passing the ball around the back, and simply waiting for Union to come out before they progress forward.

THAT WAS QUICK!
Bayern are absolutely ruthless. They score a fourth moments after the second half starts.
Who else but Lewandowski? Muller makes a direct vertical pass to Musiala who crosses it across the box for a simple tap in, giving Lewa his 31st goal of the season.

GOAL! BAYERN MUNICH 3-0 UNION BERLIN
Fischer's head is in his hands as his side conceded a third just on the brink of half-time.
Lewa has just scored his 30th league goal of the season, and it's going to take a miracle for the visitors to get back into this.

BAYERN PUTTING THE PRESSURE ON
Despite being 2-0 up, there are still some mistakes to exploit in this Bayern side. The good news is that everytime they lose the ball, they press really well to win it back, making it extremely difficult for Union Berlin to get out of their half.

GOAL! BAYERN MUNICH 2-0 UNION BERLIN
The quality always comes through, and Bayern are just a different class. Unlike their opponents, they can actually take their chances.
It's Nianzou who scores a header from a corner. He towers over the defender, and it's a great finish. This is his first goal in the Bundesliga, in only his second start.

UNION ATTEMPT TO RESPOND
Knoche has a great shot from close range after a Union set-piece, but Neuer shows why he's still one of the best, and he keeps it out.

BAYERN FEELING THEMSELVES NOW
The early goal has really tipped the scale in terms of pressures. Coman finds himself in the same area in which he scored from and attempts a cross, but it's too deep.
The home side has already has five shots, and are averaging 70% possession.

GOAL! BAYERN MUNICH 1-0 UNION BERLIN
Bayern's efforts of winning the ball back is rewarded as Coman puts the hosts in front. His goal is a classic cut inside and shoot from just outside the box. Lots of pace on the ball means that Luthe can't get to it in time.
