An Arjen Robben double helped fire Bayern Munich to a resounding 4-0 win over Augsburg and continue their charge towards a third straight league title.
Two goals in the space of a minute just before the hour mark set the visitors on their way during a superb second-half performance, which helped stretch their lead at the top of the table to 10 points.
Mehdi Benatia opened the scoring with a flicked header, before Robben curled home just a few seconds later.
A powerful drive from Robert Lewandowski extended the lead after 68 minutes, before the imperious Robben rounded off another eye-catching performance by slotting home the fourth after some good work from Sebastian Rode.
The win sees the champions claim a 16th victory in their last 19 Bundesliga outings, while also bringing an emphatic end to Augsburg’s four-match winning streak.
A spirited performance from the hosts was enough to stifle Bayern’s attacking talents during a tightly contested first half, but Augsburg rarely looked like troubling their Bavarian neighbours.
Despite having no fresh injury concerns, Bayern boss Pep Guardiola made five changes to the side that beat CSKA Moscow in the Champions League in midweek, but his team showed no sign of surrendering any momentum during the opening stages.
