BUNDESLIGA wrap-up- Saturday

Bayern 2-0 B Gladbach


The hosts was took the lead in the 16th minute as Vidal ghosted in between Nico Elvedi and Julian Korb to place a bullet header beyond Sommer – the keeper only able to get fingertips to the Chilean’s effort. Bayern’s lead was doubled just after the half hour as Costa beat Sommer with a low drive, with Gladbach’s defending again far from impressive. Robben and David Alaba worked an opening on the left before the latter delivered a deep cross that eventually found its way to Costa – Oscar Wendt having slipped when trying to clear – and the Brazilian made no mistake, celebrating the goal by taking a selfie with a fan in the crowd. Not much changed after the restart as Gladbach gave up a lot of possession to their hosts, limiting their openings to rare counter attacks that failed to even worry Manuel Neuer.And Gladbach nearly made them pay after 71 minutes as Hahn rattled the woodwork with an acrobatic effort from Korb’s deep cross – the visitors’ first and only shot to worry Neuer.It failed to spark a Gladbach recovery, though, as Bayern ended their run of successive draws in the league with a comfortable win – while also being able to bring Costa and Robben off as they continue to make their way back after injury.

Roman Weidenfeller denied the hosts a second goal moments later, the veteran goalkeeper – making his first Bundesliga appearance of the season – instinctively parrying away Lukas Hinterseer’s acrobatic attempt. And the hosts’ pressure told again in the 24th minute, Suttner again the provider with another fantastic free-kick –
Ingolstadt should have had a third shortly after the half-hour mark, but Hinterseer failed to find the target after connecting with Lezcano’s cross. Ousmane Dembele finally unlocked Ingolstatdt’s defence picking out Aubameyang with a fine cross and the skipper made no mistake with his header. Ingolstadt wasted no time in restoring their two-goal cushion, though – Lezcano doubling his tally with an excellently placed first-time finish. Ramos did haul them back into proceedings once more with a venomous strike. Nyland appeared to have preserved a precious win when he denied Felix Passlack and Mario Gotze late on, but the Norwegian keeper was helpless as he could only parry Piszczek’s header straight to Pulisic, who bundled home.
