Bundesliga 2019-20: 3 talking points from Bayern Munich's 4-0 win over Dusseldorf

Modified Nov 27, 2019 07:04 GMT

#3 Bayern have 4 different scorers in a Bundesliga game for the second time this season

Corentin Tolisso was one of four scorers for Bayern on the night

For the first time since the 6-1 home win over Mainz on matchday-3, Bayern saw four different scorers in a Bundesliga game. The quartet of Benjamin Pavard, Corentin Tolisso, Serge Gnabry and Philippe Coutinho all scored in the 4-0 away win at Fortuna Dusseldorf.

Ironically, this was also a game which saw Bayern's prolific scorer Robert Lewandowski draw a blank for the first time in a Bundesliga game this season.

At the end of the day though, that would only be a minor setback for the Polish forward as his blistering scoring pace this season keeps him on track to overhaul Gerd Muller's record single season tally of 40 goals in a Bundesliga season, set in 1971-72.
