Bayern Munich storm back to top of Bundesliga as Sadio Mane returns

Bayern Munich stormed back to the top of the Bundesliga as they beat third-placed Union Berlin 3-0 at the Allianz Arena.

Borussia Dortmund had moved above Bayern after a 1-0 win at Hoffenheim on Saturday.

Bayern, though, battled through snowy conditions to return to the summit with first-half goals from Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, Kingsley Coman and Jamal Musiala, on his 20th birthday.

Sadio Mane came on as a substitute during the second half for a first appearance since the injury which ruled the Senegal striker out of the World Cup in Qatar.

Sunday's other match in Germany's top flight saw European hopefuls Freiburg held to a 1-1 draw at home by Bayer Leverkusen.
