MüLLER SCORES IN CLUB RECORD GAME AS BAYERN BEAT FREIBURG 2-0
Veteran Thomas Müller crowned a club record 710th appearance for Bayern Munich by scoring the second goal in a 2-0 Bundesliga victory over Freiburg.
Müller came on in the 59th minute to move one match ahead of Bayern goalkeeper legend Sepp Maier in all competitions, and then netted into the right corner in the 78th to clinch victory.
Harry Kane had opened the scoring in the 38th minute from the penalty spot after a Max Rosenfelder handball. The England captain has now scored against all 17 Bundesliga teams he has faced since arriving in Munich last year.
Bayern were not glorious in the first home game of their new coach Vincent Kompany. Matchday one leaders Freiburg enjoyed large spells of position but missed a consolation goal when Lucas Höler fired a penalty over the bar on the last kick of the game.
The victory moved Bayern to second in the standings with a maximum six points, trailing Heidenheim on goal difference after Heidenheim crushed Augsburg 4-0 in the day's other game to go top for the first time in club history.
RB Leipzig also have six points after ending champions Bayer Leverkusen's unbeaten league run after 35 games the previous day with a 3-2 victory.
