ANKARA (AA) - Bayern Munich defeated Wolfsburg 3-2 on Saturday to go seven points clear at the top of Germany's Bundesliga.

Jamal Musiala scored twice and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting found the net for the visitors as Wout Weghorst responded to make the score 3-1 in the first half.

In the second half, Maximilian Philipp pulled a goal back for the home side but Wolfsburg's efforts were not enough to equalize the game which ended 2-3 at the Volkswagen Arena.

Bayern Munich consolidated their lead with 68 points, seven points ahead of second-placed RB Leipzig, who held to a 0-0 draw at home to Hoffenheim on Friday.

Wolfsburg are in third spot with 54 points.
