Bayern close in on Bundesliga, Union Berlin on Champions League
BERLIN: Bayern Munich captain Thomas Müller scored on a rare start as they took another step toward a record-extending 11th consecutive Bundesliga title by routing Schalke 6-0 on Saturday. Bayern moved four points clear of Borussia Dortmund before the late game. Dortmund could restore the one-point gap by beating Borussia Mönchengladbach at home, while they must also maintain hope in Bayern dropping points in their final two games.
