The Bavarian powerhouse next turns its attention to Barcelona\u2019s visit on Saturday for the first leg of their Champions League semifinal. Bayern is bidding to reach the final for the first time while mindful of Bar\u00e7a\u2019s 7-1 rout when they met for their opening game in the league phase.<\/p>\n
Bayern encountered no such issues in the Bundesliga, winning every game with the exception of a draw at home to Carl Zeiss Jena in September. Jena is now bottom of the table, fighting for survival.<\/p>\n

Bayern had to wait till the 50th for Dunst to respond with a long-range shot that squeezed inside the left post.<\/p>\n
Lia Kamber pulled Union level again after a well-worked move in the 77th, but Bayern’s perseverance paid off through Gwinn’s winner in the 84th.<\/p>\n
Wolfsburg drew 0-0 at Werder Bremen, with both teams reduced to 10 women with late red cards.<\/p>\n
