Bayern Munich, helped by two record-breaking VfL Wolfsburg own goals and two from man-of-the-match Michael Olise, demolished the visitors 8-1 in the Bundesliga on Sunday to extend their lead at the top, as the league resumed after its winter break, Reuters reported.
The reigning champions, who are undefeated in the league this season, are on 44 points, 11 ahead of second-placed Borussia Dortmund. RB Leipzig, with a game in hand, are third on 29, as many as Bayer Leverkusen and fifth-placed VfB Stuttgart.
"It's not normal (for such a result), it's not a given and we should not forget that," Bayern coach Vincent Kompany said. "The first half was really not easy. But I had the feeling that when they get a bit tired, we'd create even more chances – and that's exactly what happened in the second half."
