Stuttgart had threatened Bayern’s goal two minutes later. Borna Sosa fired a cross which Sasa Kalajdzic greeted with a header, but the ball was stopped by Manuel Neuer.
In fact, it was Bayern who then took the lead in the 17th minute. Robert Lewandowski broke into the Stuttgart goal with a shot from close range after using Serge Gnabry’s pass from the left.
Five minutes later, Bayern doubled their lead. The collaboration of Thomas Mueller and Leroy Sane was completed perfectly by Gnabry with a shot from inside the penalty box.
