    The young goalkeeper did well on the rare occasions he was called upon as Hoffenheim's attacking threat was almost non-existent.

  • Luiz Gustavo Dias

    The Brazilian had a decent game. Dealt with with Hoffenheim's limited attacking threat and made some good runs going forward.

  • Holger Badstuber

    Holger Badstuber

    Solid performance from the youngster who has recovered well from his poor display last week. Strong in the air and made several impressive interceptions.

    Anatoliy Tymoshchuk

    Did not have a lot to do defensively but what he did do he did well, making sure he kept his concentration. Passing was of a good standard and he looked to attack when possible.

  • Philipp Lahm

    Philipp Lahm

    The captain kept Babel quiet all afternoon and looked very good. Got forward when possible too.

  • Franck Ribéry

    Franck Ribéry

    Lively return to the first-team. Out-shone a little by Robben but it will only be a matter of time until the Frenchman is firing on all cylinders.

    Danijel Pranjic

    The Croatian looked a lot better in the centre alongside Schweinsteiger than he did with Ottl last week. His passing was solid and he worked hard to retrieve the ball.

  • Thomas Müller

    Thomas Müller Top of the Match

    Linked up well with his fellow attackers throughout the game and his goal was taken very well. His form has improved a lot this season and he is finally looking like the player of the 2010 World Cup.

  • Bastian Schweinsteiger

    Bastian Schweinsteiger

    Solid as always. His passing was brilliant throughout and he worked very hard for the team in his preferred deeper role.

  • Arjen  Robben

    Arjen Robben

    The Dutchman was in outstanding form as Bayern dominated the game. He scored two excellent goals and was the best player on the pitch.

  • Mario Gomez

    Mario Gomez

    Another well taken goal by the big German who cannot stop scoring right now. His link-up play was very good and he is certainly improving.

    The Turkish international replaced the brilliant Robben late on but did not have enough time to make a real impact.

  • Tom Starke

    Tom Starke

    The goalkeeper did not have a great game but to be fair to him could not be blamed for any of the four goals.

  • Andreas Ibertsberger

    Andreas Ibertsberger

    The left-back had a torrid time up against an inspired Robben. His marking was slack and he just could not keep up with the flying Dutchman.

  • Marvin Compper

    2.00

    Marvin Compper

    Poor positioning throughout the game. The defender who has been capped for Germany looked nowhere near international quality today and was given the runaround.

  • Isaac Vorsah

    Isaac Vorsah

    The big centre-half lacked pace today and his marking was inadequate throughout. Brought off at half-time due to injury

  • Andreas  Beck

    Andreas Beck

    The former Under-21 German international struggled against the movement of Ribery and Mueller in particular and his afternoon was summed up when he had a nasty collision with his own 'keeper.

  • Sejad Salihovic

    Sejad Salihovic

    The Bosnian could not find his range of passing this afternoon and struggled to influence the game.

  • Sebastian Rudy

    Sebastian Rudy Flop of the Match

    The highly-rated midfielder struggled big time in the opening stages. He could not get anywhere near his Bayern counterparts and was hauled off within the first half-hour.

  • D. Alaba

    D. Alaba

    Against his parent club, the young Austrian was anonymous all afternoon as he hardly touched the ball.

  • Ryan Babel

    Ryan Babel

    The former Liverpool man was always looking for the ball but unfortunately could not produce any quality to get his first goal for Hoffenheim.

  • Vedad Ibisevic

    Vedad Ibisevic

    Difficult game for the striker who was left isolated up front far too often. Did control the ball well when he had it but his side were dominated in the middle of the park which meant he received poor service.

  • Boris Vukcevic

    Boris Vukcevic

    Poor performance from the winger who did not work hard enough to get back and help out his three man midfield. Was hauled off in the second-half.

    Josip Simunic

    The Croatian replaced Vorsah at half-time and did not have the best of times against Bayern's fluent attack. Was beaten by Gomez for strength and could not get close to Mueller.

  • Gylfi Sigurdsson

    Gylfi Sigurdsson

    Came on too late to make an impact on the game. Many Hoffenheim fans would argue the lively Icelandic should have started.

  • Tobias Weis

    Tobias Weis

    Slight improvement on the shocking Rudy but that's not saying much. Bayern continued to dominate the middle of the park when he entered the game.
