German champions Bayern Munich have 23 points clear at the top of the Bundesliga table following a 2-1 win over fourth-placed Bayer Leverkusen at home in the Allianz Arena on Saturday.
According to CNN, the European champions shrugged off the midweek jailing of club president Uli Hoeness for tax evasion with goals from Mario Mandzukic and Bastian Schweinsteiger, and even Stefan Kiessling's late consolation could not prevent Bayern's 16th successive league win.
Meanwhile, the report mentioned that second-placed Borussia Dortmund suffered a 2-1 home defeat by Borussia Monchengladbach, and they will have to surrender the title race if more points are dropped next weekend.
The report further said that Italian stars Inter Milan moved up to fourth place in the Serie A with a 2-0 win at Verona, thanks to goals from Argentine forward Rodrigo Palacio and Brazilian defender Jonathan, while French champions Paris Saint-Germain will seek to extend an eight-point advantage at the top of the Ligue 1 against fourth side St. Etienne.
