Bayern Keeps Four-Point Lead Over Dortmund With Win vs. Frankfurt

BERLIN — Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund warmed up for what is sure to be their quietest ever Bundesliga clash by winning their respective games on Saturday.

In stadiums with no spectators due to strict hygiene measures against the coronavirus, Bayern routed Eintracht Frankfurt 5-2 after Dortmund laid down the challenge with a labored 2-0 win at Wolfsburg.

Goals from Leon Goretzka, Thomas Müller and Robert Lewandowski had Bayern in cruise control but Frankfurt defender Martin Hinteregger scored twice in three minutes to set up an exciting finale.

Alphonso Davies steadied Bayern’s nerves before Hinteregger’s own goal capped a remarkable game for the center back.
