Who wants to contradict Hansi Flick?
“We are not masters yet.
The lead will not be enough, ”said the FC Bayern coach when asked whether that was the preliminary decision in the title race.
The Munich team won 4-0 (1-0) at Schalke 04, and of course the ninth championship in a row is not yet perfect.
But given the lead of seven points over Leipzig, ten over Leverkusen and even 13 over Borussia Dortmund, an exciting scenario at the top requires some imagination.
Lewandowski with the 350th scorer point
They also need them at Schalke, where the second division is becoming more and more realistic.
The Gelsenkircheners, who competed without their ailing returnees Sead Kolasinac and Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, presented themselves courageously and initially had chances against Bayern.
Still, the Royal Blues are a loser of the day.
They are not only large behind the relegation place, but after Mainz's surprising 3-2 win against Leipzig on Saturday they are now three points behind in 17th place.

After Thomas Müller's 1-0 win (33rd), the spell was broken.
“We pulled off the week really well.
We won three times in three games.
We got nine points.
We have taken a giant step forward in the table.
That's what counts, ”said Müller.
Robert Lewandowski made the preliminary decision shortly after the break (54th).
With the 23rd goal of the season, the Pole now scored in eight consecutive away games.
This has never happened in the history of the Bundesliga.
The Pole scored nine more goals than the entire Schalke team.
Lewandowski also celebrated a personal anniversary: his 350th scorer point in his 313rd appearance for FC Bayern.

Again Müller (88th) and David Alaba (90th) made the victory perfect for the sovereign, but overall lackluster Bayern (54th), who have already scored 53 goals this season - more than ever after the 18th matchday.
Outstanding.
Even if this record value does not yet make a master.
