A lovely cross from the left is nearly met by Goretzka at the back post, but the midfielder is inches away from making contact with the ball and it curls out of play for a goal-kick.
90'
There will be three minutes of time added on. Leverkusen need a miracle to salvage anything from this game now.

HALF-TIME: BAYERN MUNICH 2-0 BAYER LEVERKUSEN
41'
A couple of sloppy fouls from forwards have slowed the tempo of the game down now. Bayern are in no hurry to speed things up again.
39'
Musiala gets down the left again and lashes across goal from a tight angle, but Hradecky stands up at his near post and catches the ball assertively.
33'
The offside flag spares Coman's blushes after the winger's sloppy pass allowed Leverkusen to break, but Bailey is just caught off as he made a run in behind.
29'
Muller does superbly to retain possession after winning it with an inch-perfect tackle before being dispossessed and then immediately winning it back again and beating his marker.
25'
Davies uses his searing pace to press Frimpong in his own third as he tries to pass the ball back to his goalkeeper, who is then forced to simply hoof the ball out of play as he is also closed down.
23'
Boateng makes a mess of a clearance on the halfway line, hooking the ball back into a Leverkusen player rather than putting it into touch and allowing the visitors to break, but Bayern just about scramble enough men back to put a stop to the danger.
19'
Muller goes for goal from distance after good work from Coman down the right, but the German's shot is charged down and blocked away.
17'
Leverkusen try to break through Bailey, but Diaby's return pass to the winger is poor and the attack breaks down on the edge of the Bayern box.
15'
Bayern have been ruthless in these opening exchanges and Leverkusen now have a mountain to climb. A few visiting players' heads have dropped already.
13'
J. Kimmich has scored a goal for Bayern Munich!
GOAL!!! BAYERN DOUBLE THEIR LEAD!! Sinkgraven fails to deal with a cross from the Bayern left and his poor touch sees the ball fall into the path of Kimmich on the edge of the box, and the midfielder blasts it first-time across goal and in past Hradecky! What a hit! It's 2-0 to Bayern already!
7'
E. Choupo-Moting has scored a goal for Bayern Munich!
GOAL!!! BAYERN TAKE THE LEAD!! Alaba flights a lovely cross from the left towards Muller at the back post, who diverts it at goal on the volley but is denied by Hradecky! It rebounds to Choupo-Moting in the middle, however, and he takes one touch to keep it airborne and smacks a volley at goal that deflects in off Bender! It's 1-0 to Bayern!
5'
Bailey drives inside from the left and gets to the edge of the box before drilling a low effort at goal, but it takes a deflection that sees it loop harmlessly into the air before Bayern get it clear.
3'
Alaba surges through midfield with the ball as Bayern look to exploit the space in behind Leverkusen's high line. Choupo-Moting wants the pass early but the Austrian holds onto it and picks out Muller on the edge of the box instead, who lets it run for Coman. The winger drives into the box, but dallies on the ball and is closed down and dispossessed.

We're underway at the Allianz Arena!
Hello and welcome to our LIVE coverage of the Bundesliga clash between Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen at the Allianz Arena.
Bayern will be hoping to extend their lead at the top of the Bundesliga table as they close in on the title, while Leverkusen will be looking to keep the pressure on Borussia Dortmund as they aim for a European qualifying spot.
Bayern Munich XI (4-2-3-1): Manuel Neuer; Benjamin Pavard, Jerome Boateng, Lucas Hernandez, Alphonso Davies; Joshua Kimmich, David Alaba; Kingsley Coman, Thomas Muller, Jamal Musiala; Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting.
Bayern Munich substitutes: Bouna Sarr, Leon Goretzka, Christopher Scott, Tanguy Kouassi, Javi Martinez, Tiago Dantas, Leroy Sane, Josip Stanisic, Alexander Nubel.
Bayer Leverkusen XI (3-4-3): Lukas Hradecky; Jonathan Tah, Sven Bender, Edmond Tapsoba; Jeremie Frimpong, Charles Aranguiz, Exequiel Palacios, Daley Sinkgraven; Moussa Diaby, Patrik Schick, Leon Bailey.
Bayer Leverkusen substitutes: Karim Bellarabi, Nadiem Amiri, Lucas Alario, Florian Wirtz, Kerem Demirbay, Wendell, Aleksandar Dragovic, Tin Jedvaj, Lennart Grill.
Flick can be pleased at how efficient his side have been so far and their two-goal cushion has not come under a great deal of threat so far. Wolf will certainly be demanding more urgency from his men in the second half, as Leverkusen have been far too passive to this point.
Thank you for joining our coverage, we hope you enjoyed the game. Until next time, goodbye!
Bayern travel to face Mainz next and can clinch the title, while Leverkusen host Eintracht Frankfurt.
