Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich achieved a 3-0 win over 10-man Borussia Mönchengladbach, setting a European record with 13 consecutive competitive wins to start the season.
Bayern Munich arrived at Borussia-Park, seeking to maintain their perfect start to the Bundesliga campaign against bottom-placed Mönchengladbach, who had not won in 14 league matches since March.
The match was delayed by 15 minutes due to traffic issues affecting Bayern's journey. Coach Vincent Kompany made six changes to the team, including starting Jonas Urbig in goal.
The visitors nearly made a perfect start when Nicolas Jackson fed Luis Díaz in the first minute, but the Colombian fired just wide.
