Bayern Munich have broken a 54-year Bundesliga goalscoring record, with Leon Goretzka’s 53rd-minute goal against St Pauli on Saturday bringing the league leaders tally to 102 goals this season.

Goretzka’s strike bettered the mark of 101 set by the Bavarian giants in 1971-72 in a side featuring club legends Franz Beckenbauer, Gerd Mueller and Uli Hoeness.

Bayern, who are on the cusp of winning a record-extending 35th Bundesliga title, brought up the record with five matches remaining this season.
