Substitute Raphael Guerreiro: Bayern Munich turned a tight contest into a rout with a powerful second half to hammer Wolfsburg 8-1 at the Allianz Arena and tighten their grip on the Bundesliga summit.

Bayern struck after five minutes when Luis Diaz whipped in a dangerous cross that Wolfsburg defender Kilian Fischer diverted into his own net. The visitors replied in the 13th minute as Lovro Majer split the defense with a through ball for Dzenan Pejcinovic, who slid a low finish past Manuel Neuer.

The game remained competitive until Bayern reclaimed the lead at 30 minutes. Michael Olise delivered from the right and Diaz rose unmarked to head in from close range, sending the hosts 2-1 ahead, reports Xinhua.
