Nothing gained away to FC Bayern
Line-up
Head coach Christian Ilzer made four changes to the starting line-up that suffered a 1-0 defeat to VfL Wolfsburg last time out. Valentin Gendrey, Kevin Akpoguma, Dennis Geiger and Erencan Yardimci started in place of Pavel Kadeřábek, Alexander Prass, Anton Stach and Gift Orban.
The scenario
TSG Hoffenheim went into Matchday 17 in 15th position with 14 points. FC Bayern were the league leaders with 39 points.
Number of the game: 478
Is the number of Bundesliga appearances Oliver Baumann has made after the 5-0 loss at FC Bayern Munich. Only Oliver Kahn (557), Eike Immel (534), Manuel Neuer (514) and Uli Stein (512) are above him in the goalkeeper ranking.
Moment of the match
The opener: Leroy Sané fired FC Bayern Munich into an early lead in the seventh minute and thus left no doubts about which team would come away with the victory.
Outlook
The second half of the season begins for TSG Hoffenheim on Saturday. TSG will be away to Holstein Kiel at 15:30 CET.

Match highlights
Sané opens the scoring
Behind early on: Bayern win the second ball and TSG do not show any clarity in the penalty area either. Sané ultimately thunders the ball powerfully in the left corner.
The second goal
That was far too easy. Guerreiro is played clean through on Baumann, stays ice cool and slots into the bottom left corner.
Kane makes it 3-0
Akpoguma blocks an effort by Kane with his hand. VAR intervenes and awards a penalty. Kane steps up and coolly slots into the left corner.
Sané scores again
Bayern are afforded far too much space on the left and the cross towards the back post finds Sané, who is completely unmarked and scores again.
It's 5-0
A pass in behind suffices. Davies squares the ball in front of goal and Gnabry is left to slot home from close range. Bayern lead 5-0.
Becker almost with the consolation goal
The only real TSG chance: Becker is afforded slightly too much space in midfield and simply goes for it. Neuer claws the ball away from the corner.
