Arjen Robben sparkled on his comeback from injury after almost two months, scoring Bayern Munich’s first goal in a 4-0 demolition of Köln for the club’s 1,000th victory in the Bundesliga, which put the champions 10 points clear at the top.
Robben, out since 3 September when he was injured in Holland’s 1-0 loss to Iceland in a Euro 2016 qualifier, slotted in from close range after a back heel from Robert Lewandowski as they looked to bounce back from Tuesday’s Champions League defeat at Arsenal.
The Chile international Arturo Vidal drilled in from Kingsley Coman’s darting run and cutback as the Bavarians extended their record-breaking start to the season to 10 wins in 10 games.
Lewandowski, the Bundesliga’s top scorer, then got on to the score sheet himself with a glancing header in the 62nd minute, after Douglas Costa whipped in a free-kick, the Pole taking his league tally to 13 goals in 10 games.
Thomas Müller added their fourth goal with a well-taken penalty as Bayern moved to 30 points, with second-placed Borussia Dortmund, who are on 20, in action at home to Augsburg on Sunday.
