Bundesliga round-up: Robert Lewandowski gives leaders narrow win

Bundesliga leading scorer Robert Lewandowski grabbed an early goal to give leaders Bayern Munich a 1-0 win at Cologne, sending them eight points clear at the top of the table with seven matches remaining.

Bayern, on track for the treble after advancing to the Champions League quarter-final this week, are on 69 points, with second-placed Borussia Dortmund in action against Augsburg on Sunday.

Poland forward Lewandowski notched his 25th goal of the campaign with a well-placed shot in the 10th minute and Bayern were rarely threatened by the hosts in a one-sided game.

Hertha Berlin edged past Ingolstadt 2-1 to remain on course for a third-place finish, opening up a four-point gap over Schalke, who are fourth.

Andre Schurrle's last-gasp goal rescued a 1-1 draw for Wolfsburg against Darmstadt 98, keeping them in eighth.

In the battle to avoid relegation, Hoffenheim claimed a precious 3-1 win at Hamburg to make it four victories from just seven games under 28-year-old coach Julian Nagelsmann, while Mainz drew 1-1 at Werder Bremen.

In Saturday's late kick-off, Eintracht Frankfurt earned a crucial 1-0 win against bottom side Hannover thanks to Anis Ben-Hatira's first-half goal.
