Bayern hosted an out-of-form Frankfurt side in the Allianz Arena in the build-up to the Klassiker in midweek, knowing that a win would restore their 4 point lead on top of the Bundesliga table.
The home side were better from the get-go, as they mounted tons of pressure on Frankfurt from the start of the match. They almost went ahead when Lewandowski smashed the crossbar from the edge of the box after a corner.
Soon thereafter, Müller ran free down the left flank, and was able to set up Goretzka on the edge of the box, who made it 1-0 with an emphatic finish.
