Bayern inched closer to a fifth straight Bundesliga crown with a 1-0 victory at Gladbach that put them 13 points clear at the top with nine games to play. There was nothing Sommer could do to stop Bayern’s opener in the second half, though. Superbly marshaledIt was the Germany forward’s 93rd Bundesliga goal for Bayern in his 250th appearance in Germany’s top flight, but only his second in the Bundesliga this season. Sunday’s success at Mainz lifted them to ninth in the Bundesliga, three points off a possible European qualification berth but still only six points above Hamburg in the relegation playoff position. Schalke grabbed the only goal five minutes into the second half.
