Bayern Munich 3-0 Eintracht Frankfurt: Lewandowski fires injury-hit Bavarians to win

Bayern Munich tightened their grip on a third straight Bundesliga title after Robert Lewandowski's brace inspired a 3-0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt at the Allianz Arena.

Coach Pep Guardiola claimed he only had 14 fit players available in the run up to Saturday's game and named just four substitutes as a result, but runaway leaders Bayern made light of their injury problems and were led superbly by Lewandowski


The Pole struck first after quarter of an hour, producing a superb touch on the edge of the area with his back to goal before turning to lash home an unstoppable effort.

Mario Gotze crashed a drive against the post just after the hour before Lewandowski doubled his tally with a close-range header.

Only the woodwork denied Lewandowski a hat-trick late on, with Thomas Muller adding a third with a cool slotted finish.

The result boosts Bayern's bid for a domestic and European treble and leaves them in confident mood ahead of their Champions League quarter-final first leg with Porto on Wednesday.
