top of Bundesliga as Robert Lewandowski and
Arjen Robben shone in 6-0 win over 10-man
Paderborn.
Bayern Munich made it 14 goals in two
Bundesliga matches on Saturday with a clinical
6-0 thrashing of 10-man Paderborn.
Pep Guardiola's men were held to a 0-0 draw by
Shakhtar Donetsk in the first leg of their UEFA
Champions League last-16 tie on Tuesday.
However, the German champions got back on the
goal trail at the Benteler Arena as they followed
up last weekend's 8-0 league victory over
Hamburg with another resounding triumph.
Robert Lewandowski marked his recall to the
starting XI, in place of Mario Gotze, with two
goals in a first half of few chances.
And Bayern picked off the hosts almost at will
following the dismissal of Paderborn's Florian
Hartherz in the 62nd minute, Arjen Robben
scoring twice either side of Franck Ribery
and substitute Mitchell Weiser also finding the
net.
Paderborn remain in a position of peril near the
foot of the table, while Bayern hold an 11-point
advantage at the summit ahead of second-placed
Wolfsburg's meeting with Hertha Berlin on
Sunday.
The visitors dominated possession from the
outset, but were unable to fashion a clear sight
of goal early on as Paderborn, adopting a 5-4-1
formation, packed men behind the ball and
defended with discipline.
