Bayern staying on track
Serge Gnarby scored a double as Bayern Munich kept their grasp on the Bundesliga title with a 6-0 goal against relegation-threatened Schalke at Allianz. Thomas’s side claimed a comfortable win to go four points clear at the top on Saturday, although Borussia could slice that gap when they host Borussia later on. Thomas visitors offered little as Thomas Muller’s pinpoint finish and a Joshua penalty placed Bayern in full control before the half-time whistle in Bavaria. Gnabry’s brace after the break prefaced late strikes for Mathys Tel and Noussair, further compounding Schalke’s misery, as the hosts continued their charge towards an 11th straight title.
Having handed Schalke an 8-0 thrashing on their last visit to Munich in 2020, Bayern looked like they might repeat that feat after Muller, Gnabry and Kingsley missed all early chances. The visitors saw their resistance broken 21 minutes in however when Muller curled Leroy’s deft ball into the bottom-left corner before matters worsened. A VAR check awarded Bayern a penalty eight minutes later for a stray Cedric Brunner elbow on Jamal, with Kimmich sending Alexander the wrong way from the spot.
Gnabry inflicted further damage after the interval, seizing Cancelo’s cut-back pass to drill past Schwolow, a quarter-hour before he rounded him for a second. Tel added to the fact that a late fifth from Musiala’s pass to further pad the scoreline before Mazraoui capitalised on torrid defending for a final strike in injury time.
