Demichelis and Klose on target for Bayern
Bayern Munich have moved to the top of the Bundesliga table with a 2-0 success over Hoffenheim.
In the first game back following the winter break, goals from Martin Demichelis and Miroslav Klose secured the points.
Bayern went ahead in the 35th minute as Bastian Schweinsteiger's cross from the left skipped off the top of a defender's head and dropped to Demichelis, who slid in to guide his shot across Timo Hildebrand and into the far corner.
Hoffenheim goalkeeper Hildebrand was in sparkling form, denying the hosts on a dozen occasions.
Mario Gomez shot wide from Arjen Robben's cut-back as the hosts continued to threaten a second, and it duly arrived in the 86th minute as Klose diverted home a shot from Mark van Bommel.
The win moves Bayern one point clear of Bayern Leverkusen, who can return to the top against Mainz on Saturday.
