Harry Kane scored his 33rd goal in the Bundesliga as Bayern Munich thrashed Union Berlin 5-1 at Stadion An der Alten Forsterei.
Leon Goretzka scored in the 29th minute with a fine finish from inside the box.
England captain Kane expertly curled in a free-kick to put Bayern 2-0 up on the stroke of half-time.
Second-half goals came from Mathys Tel and a double from Thomas Muller before Yorbe Vertessen scored a late consolation.
Union’s game plan was clear in the first half as they sat in a low block and tried to counter-attack Thomas Tuchel’s side, who were fresh from securing their place in the Champions League semi-finals.
But their heads dropped once Germany internationals Goretzka and Kane had made it 2-0, and Bayern raced away in the second period.
Tuchel’s side have moved three points ahead of Stuttgart as they look to secure a second spot, with Bayer Leverkusen winning the Bundesliga title last weekend.
Union, however, remains three points above the relegation play-off spot.
