Mario Mandzukic scored twice to give Bayern Munich a 2-0 win over bottom club Greuther Fuerth on Saturday to protect their nine-point lead as the league resumed after a four-week mid-season break.
.
Champions Broussia Dortmund cancelled out hosts Werder Bremen 5-0 with a dazzling display of attacking football to ensure they are still in the title hunt, albeit 12 points off the pace in third place.
.
Bayern, who secured a major coup in midweek when they announced the signing of former Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola for next season, never hit top form in a largely one-sided game.
.
'' We are satisfied with the win and another clean sheet but my team knows they did not play that well '', said 67-year-old Bayern coach Jupp Heynckes who has hinted he may continue his career after leaving Bayern at the end of the season.
