Supreme Bayern crush Leverkusen 3-0 to stretch record winning run
MUNICH: Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich bagged three goals in 19 minutes in a rampant first half to power past visitors Bayer Leverkusen 3-0 on Saturday and stretch their record-extending run to 15 wins from 15 matches across all competitions this season. Goals from Serge Gnabry and Nicolas Jackson and an own goal from Loic Bade in the 44th minute gave Bayern, who rested top scorer Harry Kane, Michael Olize and Luis Diaz in the first half ahead of next week’s trip to reigning champions Paris St. Germain in the Champions League, an easy victory. They extended their record run in Europe’s top five leagues to 15 wins on the trot after setting a record on Wednesday with a 4-1 win over Cologne in the German Cup second round, improving on AC Milan’s 13 straight wins from 1992/3.
