No matter, it found Gnabry who drove the ball home to give Bayern the lead.The points were secured when Bayern doubled their lead on 52 minutes.Schalke have only themselves to blame, as the goal came from an awful free-kick from the left into the Bayern box.Bayern countered at pace, with Musiala devouring the ground before drawing a defender in and slipping a pass into the path of Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting who composed himself before tucking the ball home.The win moves Bayern six points clear of RB Leipzig, although Union Berlin could trim that advantage to four points with a win at Freiburg on Sunday.Related TopicsShare this articleAdvertisementAdvertisement
