Bayern Munich 'make a statement' with emphatic Hoffenheim win
Borussia Dortmund's win over Wolfsburg on Saturday meant that a Bayern win over Hoffenheim was a necessity if they wanted to reduce the title pressure on themselves, and restore a six-point lead over their Klassiker rivals.
By Sunday evening, Vincent Kompany's men had done just that, and in some style too! Aided by the early sending off of Kevin Akpoguma, Bayern stormed to a 5-1 win thanks to a Luis Díaz hat-trick and a Harry Kane brace.
"That was a statement to the rest of the league," enthused former Bayern midfielder Michael Ballack on DAZN. "They sent a strong and confident message".
