Bayern Munich 1-0 Arminia Bielefeld: Sane strike sends record-breaking hosts back to summit

Bayern Munich 1-0 Arminia Bielefeld: Sane strike sends record-breaking hosts back to summit

Dortmund’s
earlier
3-1
win
at
Wolfsburg
saw
them
climb
to
the
summit,
but
Bayern
responded
in
Saturday’s
late
kick-off
to
move
a
point
clear
ahead
of
next
week’s
Klassiker.

After
failing
to
forge
a
breakthrough
in
the
first
half
of
a
league
game
for
just
the
second
time
this
term,
Sane
finally
found
the
net
for
Bayern
with
71
minutes
played.

That
was
Bayern’s
102nd
league
goal
this
calendar
year

a
Bundesliga
record

and
proved
enough
to
help
the
hosts
bounce
back
from
last
week’s
2-1
loss
at
Augsburg.

Reigning
champions
Bayern
had
11
attempts
in
the
first
half,
six
of
those
on
target,
without
finding
a
way
past
inspired
Arminia
goalkeeper
Stefan
Ortega.

The
visiting
keeper
did
well
to
keep
out
a
couple
of
Alphonso
Davies
efforts
and
a
volley
from
Thomas
Muller,
who
earlier
had
a
header
cleared
off
the
line
by
Andres
Andrade.

Sane
continued
Bayern’s
wastefulness
by
missing
two
big
chances
early
in
the
second
half,
but
the
Germany
international
eventually
provided
the
opener.

Collecting
a
pass
from
Muller
outside
the
box,
Sane
whipped
a
shot
past
Ortega
to
give
Bayern
the
goal
they
craved.

Arminia
held
Bayern
3-3
in
their
previous
meeting
in
February,
but
the
strugglers
could
not
find
a
response
this
time
and
were
fortunate
not
to
concede
a
second
when
Serge
Gnabry’s
shot
came
back
out
off
the
crossbar
late
on.
