Bayern Munich opened the scoring in style Saturday thanks to its overwhelming counter-attack against VfB Stuttgart.
A careless giveaway from a corner-kick sent the hosts on a counter-attack that saw Bayern outnumber its opponents 4-to-1 as they approached the Stuttgart box.
Douglas Costa led the way, as his blistering run and trickery in the area eventually led to a cross to Arjen Robben, who cleverly used his chest to beat Przemyslaw Tyton and bulge the back of the net.
