Bundesliga, Bayern-Union Berlin 4-0: double Lewandowski

An avalanche. As it hasn’t been seen for a while. Bayern Munich beat Union Berlin 4-0 and won, in the league, by more than a goal difference for the first time in a month (last time on February 20 with Greuther Furth). Goals from Coman (16 ‘), Nianzou (25’) and a brace from Lewandowski (45 ‘and 47’) decide. The Bavarians are thus brought back to +7 against Dortmund, who played with Cologne on Sunday.

THE MATCH

–

Despite criticism of the lack of balance, Nagelsmann confirmed the 4-2-3-1 with Musiala, Sané, Müller, Coman and Lewandowski simultaneously on the pitch. In the first 20 minutes it is Union Berlin who become dangerous, with Becker wasting from close range. The Bavarians respond by taking the lead with Coman (shot from outside) on 16 ‘, before being saved by Neuer (exceptional on Knoche), who avoids a draw. Union creates, Bayern scores again, with the French defender Nianzou, born in 2002, who heads on Kimmich’s corner in the 25th minute. At 45 ‘comes the trio of Lewandowski (on a penalty), who then also drops the poker at the beginning of the second half: Müller is good at triggering Musiala who serves in the center for the Polish center-forward, who supports the goal from a few steps. Union tries first with Knoche (suspected contact with Nianzou in the Bavarian area) and then with Awoniyi (save on Hernandez’s line), but Bayern resist. And he wins in goleada for the first time in a month. Proving to accelerate, once again, at the hottest moment of the season.
