Match Events
2'GOAL! Hannover 0-1 Bayern (Kimmich)
DREAM START FOR BAYERN! 1-0! Well that didn't take long at all! Muller meets a long throw up against the byline and hooks an overhead delivery back into the danger area. It runs through for Kimmich who volleys a first-time finish through a crowd and in at the far post!
10' CHANCE! Lewandowski's shot over the bar
19' Muller wastes a golden chance
BIG MISS! You expect Muller to be scoring from there! The ball breaks kindly for the forward in the penalty area, as he finds himself in space with the goal at his mercy, but can't keep his composure as he lifts a rushed effort over the bar!
29'GOAL! Hannover 0-2 Bayern (Alaba)
BAYERN DOUBLE THEIR LEAD! The 2-0 has been coming, and it's Alaba who provides it! A corner is cleared only as far as the full-back, who lashes a stunning first-time strike into the top corner with ferocity! There's no saving that!
53'GOAL! Hannover 0-3 Bayern (Gnabry)
THREE GOALS, THREE POINTS! Bayern make it 3-0 and there's no doubt about the result now, surely! Gnabry takes a pass in the area from Kimmich and cuts onto his left before shooting. His initial effort is blocked, but the ball breaks kindly for him on the follow-up as he slides home a simple finish.
56' CLOSE! Muller's header inches wide out
62'GOAL! Hannover 0-4 Bayern (Lewandowski)
IT'S GETTING UGLY FOR HANNOVER! 4-0 BAYERN! Esser makes a good save to deny Lewandowski's strike from the edge of the penalty area, but Kimmich manages to keep the ball in play before quickly crossing for the striker, who heads home from five yards!
Match Report
Bayern Munich eased to a third successive Bundesliga win as they crushed struggling Hannover 4-0 away from home, giving every indication they are close to being back at their best.
Niko Kovac's men have been erratic this season and played out a dramatic 3-3 draw with Ajax in the Champions League as recently as Wednesday, but in Hannover they were irresistible and cruised to a victory that puts them level with second-placed Borussia Monchengladbach on 30 points.
Bayern never looked to be in any danger of dropping points in Lower Saxony, taking an early lead through Joshua Kimmich and then consolidating their dominant position thanks to David Alaba's stunning strike in the 29th minute.

I've enjoyed real bayern in a very long time. For the first time this season , I am seeing the actual Bayern playing. Even the 5-1 vs benfica wasn't as good as this, hope we can keep this form I missed this masterclass 😭😭 Coman is just so freaking good, that man just injects life into the offense Thats the bayern we know and love This team is starting to heat up. I know they had a rough start in the Bundesliga but they’ve been getting back into form these past few games. They have been creating tons of chances & could give Dortmund a run. Something to keep an eye on going forward.

it was good game after long time but Bayern has to improve as many chances were missed otherwise number if goals would be more and I think after Gnarby joining team chance has increased as he takes ball from inside midfield to goalpost and also scores goals otherwise Bayern's attack from 2 flanks had got predictable and Goretzka can be very helpful in long pass or long shots like Kroos I think both will improve more with time and after Davis joining from January Bayern's capabilities will increase from both wings also .
