The home side took an early lead through Leroy Sané as he hit a spectacular free-kick that flew past a helpless Manuel Riemann.
Just ten minutes later, Sané continued his stellar performance by finding Joshua Kimmich streaking in the box, who turned and had his shot hit the back of the net after a deflection off a defender.
The attack wouldn’t stop as Serge Gnabry got in on the action just five minutes later, collecting the ball on the right wing, beating his defender, and spanking the ball into the side netting.
If Bochum weren’t already disheartened before half-time, Vasilis Lampropoulos scored a comical own goal, sliding the ball past Riemann while under pressure from Robert Lewandowski.
After the intermission, Bayern got right back to it as Lewandowski would get his goal right after the hour-mark, slamming the ball into the empty net from a yard out after the ball deflected kindly into his path.
Kimmich completed his second-career brace, before Choupo-Moting completed the rout with Bayern’s seventh goal of the game – slamming the ball home Riemann’s spectacular triple-save.
