It was Arjen Robben who scored both goals for Bayern Munich in their most recent win, extending their conquering form in the German Bundesliga this season, but Mario Götze is the player that at the moment makes the difference between a hungry and dangerous side to the one we saw in the second half, that’s simply content with winning and moving on to the next helpless victim that gets in their way of European domination.

Their dominant run last season in both the Bundesliga and Europe’s elite competition, ending with the lifting of the trophy for the first time in 12 years, certainly hints to that, but maybe it’s their streak of 10 consecutive wins in the competition, something no other team has done before, is an indication to this side’s greatness.
