Bayern routs Hertha 4-1 to restore 6-point Bundesliga lead
BERLIN (AP) — Bayern Munich completely outclassed Hertha Berlin to restore its six-point lead in the Bundesliga with a 4-1 win on Sunday.
The visitors should have won by more with Bayern having a host of missed chances. It also saw two goals rightly ruled out through VAR.
Corentin Tolisso and Thomas Müller scored in the first half before Leroy Sané and Serge Gnabry rewarded Bayern’s dominance in the second.
Substitute Jurgen Ekkelenkamp scored seconds after coming on for Hertha’s consolation goal, but the scoreline didn't reflect a game in which the home team had four attempts on goal compared to the visitors’ 30.
Leipzig defeated Wolfsburg 2-0 in the early game, stretching the visitors’ winless run to 11-games across all competitions.
