Bundesliga Review: Record-breakers Bayern see off Werder, Schalke leave it late

Bayern Munich became the first team to win their opening nine games of a Bundesliga season as Thomas Muller ensured their remarkable start to 2015-16 continued with a 1-0 win at Werder Bremen.

Reigning champions Bayern travelled to the Weserstadion looking to making it nine wins from nine to start their campaign, a feat never achieved in the Bundesliga's 52-year history.

And Muller - who had scored three times in Bayern's previous four encounters with Bremen - settled the match with his ninth goal of the season in the 23rd minute.

The Germany international converted at the second time of asking after receiving Thiago Alcantara's through-ball, with the goal marking Bayern's 100th goal of the calendar year and leaving them seven points clear of second-placed Borussia Dortmund.

Hertha fought back through Salomon Kalou's leveller in second half and it appeared as though Schalke would have to settle for a point until Meyer's later intervention.
