76'
C. Tolisso goes off after a red card!
SENT OFF! Tolisso is off and Bayern are down to 10 men! Klos gets away in behind and is bearing down on goal as Tolisso sprints back. The midfielder catches up to Klos just outside the box and slides in to win the ball, but catches his man and is shown a straight red for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity!

De Medina goes into the book for a rash, poor challenge on Coman out wide.

Douglas Costa enters the game and replaces S. Gnabry.
The second substitution sees Gnabry replaced by Costa on the right wing - the Brazilian's fresh legs and direct running could cause plenty of problems in the closing stages.

Minute
Description
61'
Bayern aren't pleased to have lost their clean sheet and are attacking with renewed vigour. They look determined to increase the gap back to four goals.
58'
R. Doan has scored a goal for Arminia Bielefeld! Assist by F. Klos.
GOAL!!! DOAN PULLS ONE BACK FOR BIELEFELD!! The hosts break after repelling the Bayern corner and one pass sends Klos away in behind. The striker carries the ball as far as he can before finding Doan, who takes his man on down the right and works just enough space for a low shot across goal that's right in the corner! Neuer is beaten and it's now 4-1!
Klos showed good awareness to use the support Doan was offering to his right and resist the temptation to go it alone after bursting upfield.
57'
Bayern win a corner after a spell of safe possession. They've looked a threat from set-pieces so far this evening - can they get another goal here?
55'
The second half has continued in much the same vein as the first. Bayern are in cruise control and Bielefeld are, quite simply, outclassed.
53'
Goretzka tries to get in on the act as he has a pop from distance, but his left-footed effort is high and wide. It was a bit of an ambitious effort, particularly with his weaker foot.
51'
T. Müller has scored a goal for Bayern Munich! Assist by R. Lewandowski.
GOAL!! MULLER MAKES IT FOUR!! Lewandowski turns provider as he curls in a sumptuous cross from the right that Muller races onto in the middle and diverts home with the outside of his boot! That's a classy goal. It's 4-0 to Bayern!
Lewandowski found himself in a deeper position on the right but curled an inviting cross early that curved perfectly into Muller's path. He didn't even have to break stride.
46'
We're back underway for the second half!
45' +2
HALF-TIME: ARMINIA BIELEFELD 0-3 BAYERN MUNICH
45' +1
R. Lewandowski has scored a goal for Bayern Munich! Assist by T. Müller.
GOAL!! LEWANDOWSKI SCORES AGAIN! Muller races towards the edge of the box before turning sharply and squaring for Lewandowski on the edge of the box in almost exactly the same spot from which he scored his first. The striker controls and shoots, and his low strike takes a wicked deflection that Moreno can't keep out, despite getting a hand to it! It's now 3-0 to Bayern!
Muller took the initiative to up the tempo and sparked a quick attack, performing a neat Cruyff turn to beat his man before showing the awareness to pick Lewandowski out in a dangerous position.
43'
Doan goes for the bottom-right corner again with another left-footed effort from distance, but Neuer holds on once more. It's an almost identical effort to Doan's earlier attempt.
41'
Gnabry think's he's found Muller behind the defensive line, but the flag goes up for offside and Bielefeld have some respite.
39'
Bielefeld have weathered the storm and Bayern have simply reverted to keeping possession with ruthless efficiency, working the ball around calmly as they wait for the right moment to strike.
37'
Bayern are really piling the pressure on the Bielefeld goal now. The hosts are just clinging on under a barrage of Bayern attacks.
33'
Doan gets to the edge of the area, cuts inside his man and curls a low left-footed shot towards the bottom-right corner, but it's a comfortable save for Neuer.
25'
R. Lewandowski has scored a goal for Bayern Munich! Assist by L. Goretzka.
Assist Leon Goretzka
GOAL!! LEWANDOWSKI THUMPS ONE IN! Goretzka picks up a loose ball on the left touchline and surges forward before checking onto his right and squaring to Lewandowski on the edge of the box. The striker takes one touch before smashing a fierce effort in! It was fairly central, and Moreno's positioning was a little suspect, but the power on the strike was impressive. Bayern lead 2-0!
23'
Alaba plays a sumptuous ball over the top for Muller in the box, who lays it off for Gnabry in a dangerous position, but the flag goes up for offside.
21'
Gnabry has had Lucoqui's number so far and the left-back has been lucky to escape punishment for his clumsy defending. The Bielefeld defender has hold of Gnabry's arm as the Bayern winger ghosts past him with the ball and into the box, but gets away with it.
19'
Pavard gets forward from right-back and is felled in a dangerous position by Lucoqui. Bielefeld manage to repel the danger from the set-piece, but Bayern have possession back once again.
17'
Bayern work and win another corner, which is aimed at Goretzka, but the midfielder can't make the most of it and it's behind for a goal-kick.
8'
T. Müller has scored a goal for Bayern Munich!
GOAL!! MULLER PUTS BAYERN AHEAD! Just like that, Bayern flick a switch and carve their way through the lines with a series of slick one-twos. Lewandowski releases Muller into the box and the German unselfishly squares towards Coman for a tap-in, but the pass is blocked and ricochets back to his feet. Muller then takes a touch and calmly fires into the top-right corner past the onrushing goalkeeper! It's 1-0 to Bayern!
7'
It's been very patient from Bayern so far as they work the ball around slowly and methodically in search of openings. No real sense of urgency just yet.
5'
Tolisso sends the ball into the middle and Muller meets it at the near post, but his flicked header comes off a Bielefeld defender and the ball is cleared away.
1'
We're underway in Bielefeld!
Hello and welcome to our LIVE coverage of the Bundesliga fixture between Arminia Bielefeld and Bayern Munich at Bielefelder Alm.
Last season's second-tier champions host the winners of the top flight after a solid - if unspectacular - start to life in the Bundesliga, picking up four points from their first three games. Meanwhile, Bayern have already suffered a defeat and will be keen to return to the upper reaches of the table from where they sit in seventh - albeit with tonight's game in hand.
Arminia Bielefeld XI (4-2-3-1): Stefan Ortega Moreno; Nathan de Medina, Amos Pieper, Mike van der Hoorn, Anderson-Lenda Lucoqui; Fabian Kunze, Manuel Prietl; Christian Gebauer, Ritsu Doan, Marcel Hartel; Fabian Klos.
Arminia Bielefeld substitutes: Jacob Laursen, Sergio Cordova, Oscar Linner, Nils Seufert, Sven Schipplock, Joan Simun Edmundsson, Reinhold Yabo, Brian Behrendt, Joakim Nilsson.
Bayern Munich XI (4-2-3-1): Manuel Neuer; Benjamin Pavard, Niklas Sule, David Alaba, Lucas Hernandez; Correntin Tolisso, Leon Goretzka; Serge Gnabry, Thomas Muller, Kingsley Coman; Robert Lewandowski.
Bayern Munich substitutes: Alexander Nubel, Alphonso Davies, Marc Roca, Jamal Musiala, Javi Martinez, Jerome Boateng, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, Douglas Costa, Bouna Sarr.
Neuhaus will have expected his side to be second-best in this contest, but they need to make Bayern work harder for their dominance. The visitors have hardly broken a sweat and are picking Bielefeld apart at their leisure. If things don't change, the scoreline could get very lopsided in the second half.
Thanks for joining our coverage, we hope you enjoyed the game. Until next time, goodbye!
Bielefeld travel to face Wolfsburg next, while Bayern host Atletico Madrid in the Champions League before facing a visit from Eintracht Frankfurt in Bundesliga action.
