When Bayern Munich faced Bayer Leverkusen earlier in the season, they faltered. However, in their recent encounter, they took charge and secured a 2-4 victory. Despite Leverkusen scoring first with Lucas Alario, the reigning champions responded emphatically with three goals in the 27th to 45th minutes, establishing a lead that proved insurmountable.
Robert Lewandowski netted a goal in the second half as Bayern maintained a seven-point lead over Borussia Dortmund, who also emerged victorious. The only downside was that both Lewandowski and Thomas Muller, who displayed exceptional crossing during the game, received yellow cards and will miss the upcoming match against Borussia Monchengladbach.
