Bayern Munich have beaten Union Berlin 2-0 in their first game for more than two months as the German Bundesliga’s restart continues.

Robert Lewandowski scored from a penalty and Benjamin Pavard with a header as Bayern remained unbeaten in 2020.

It was Lewandowski’s 40th goal of the season in all competitions. That’s the fifth straight season he’s hit that mark.

Bayern restored a four-point lead over second-place Borussia Dortmund, who beat rivals Schalke 4-0 on Saturday.

The Bundesliga resumed Saturday after more than two months without any games because of the coronavirus pandemic. All games are being played without fans.
