Frauen-Bundesliga: Bühl's brilliance and Amani's first goals help Bayern see off She-Wolves

FC Bayern stretched their lead at the top of the Frauen-Bundesliga with a 4-1 win over VfL Wolfsburg at Volkswagen Arena. 

Bayern were thoroughly dominant in all metrics, but they had to wait until ten minutes before the half-time break for the opening goal. Ivorian defensive midfielder Bernadette Amani scored her first goal for the club with a header after a well-rehearsed corner-kick from the visitors.

Klara Bühl provided the assist for the first goal, and she was also very much involved when Jose Barcala’s side doubled their lead before the break. After a decisive play from the winger, Jovana Demnjanovic and Linda Dallmann link up in the final third as the latter scored in back-to-back Frauen-Bundesliga games.

Bühl was at it again after the restart as she forced an own-goal from Janina Minge before her second assist of the game for Amani ten minutes before time. Amani’s second came after identical move to the goal that broke the deadlock in the first-half.

Wolfsburg had zero attempts in the first 45 minutes, but they had multiple chances for a consolation strike in the closing stage. Cecilie Flöe’s first Frauen-Bundesliga goal at least continued their record of scoring in every game since the 3-0 Supercup defeat to the same opponents.

Bayern have won the first ten league games of the season, while Wolfsburg had to settle for a second spot as they still have a five point lead over Werder Bremen. The champions will face Austria Vienna on Thursday in the fifth matchday of the league phase in the UEFA Women's Champions League.
