Michael Olise is sensational! French winger dazzles yet again as Harry Kane underwhelms in Bayern Munich win against Stuttgart

Stuttgart started the brighter of the two teams but Bayern should have taken the head, only for Olise and Jamal Musiala, in particular, to spurn gilt-edged chances.

Deniz Undav then struck the outside of the post, before the hosts went ahead in the 34th minute courtesy of Angelo Stiller's thunderbolt from 20 yards.

Former Crystal Palace star Olise then equalised on the stroke of half time after being put through on goal by Leroy Sane.

Leon Goretzka created something out of nothing after he picked Stiller's pocket just outside his own box and then fired past Alexander Nubel in the 64th minute.

The visitors nearly went 3-1 up when substitute Kingsley Coman's effort hit the wrong side of the post but they finally got their two-goal cushion as the French winger capitalised on Josha Vagnoman's mistake to fire home in the 90th minute.

Bayern eased home to earn a crucial three points at MHPArena to put even more daylight between them and second-placed Leverkusen - with Xabi Alonso's team visiting Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday.

From start to finish, Bayern's Olise was a class apart. He took his goal with aplomb, created a number of chances, and Stuttgart struggled to handle him all night. He has proven to be an excellent signing so far. He even put in a good shift defensively.

While Harry Kane had a quiet night again, Alphonso Davies, who only recently returned from a muscle problem, was forced off with a suspected injury with a few minutes of the contest remaining. Bayern will not want to lose him, especially as they face Leverkusen in the Champions League next week.

Vincent Kompany's Bayern take a break from Bundesliga action on Wednesday when they host Bayer Leverkusen in the last-16 of the Champions League in an all German affair.
