Match Report
Arjen Robben scored a stunner as Bayern Munich came from behind to claim a 3-1 victory over Bundesliga strugglers Bayer Leverkusen, who were reduced to 10 men late on.
Wendell's fifth-minute penalty put Leverkusen ahead at the Allianz Arena, with referee Tobias Welz having ordered the spot-kick to be retaken after Kevin Volland had missed his initial effort.
Bayern quickly equalised through Corentin Tolisso, however, and the hosts took the lead when Robben sensationally volleyed home in the 19th minute.

Okay very costly win for us.. Tolisso and Rafinha both got badly added to the Injury list.. I hope they come back real soon specially Rafinha when we lost our only back up.. Thank God we're called Midfield München 😁 Real bad play from Leverkusen.. They created some in the first half, but pinpoint silent play in the 2nd.. Bellarabi's dismissal was the proof of Bayer04's frustration.. The commentator almost killed me saying somebody bring Neuer a chair 😂😂 Anyway great goals from Bayern, specially Robbens cool calm perfect finishing and our lit MF duo Thiago and James's.. Lewa had a off night, and Boa's stats again 💯 A solid 3 points winning performance.. MiaSanMia ❣❣
