Relentless Bayern crush newly promoted Bochum 7-0 in Bundesliga

BERLIN, Sept. 18 (Xinhua) -- Bayern Munich showed no mercy with newcomers Bochum and reaped its fourth win in a row after sealing the deal with four goals in the first half in the 5th round in Bundesliga on Saturday.

The visitors from Bochum staged a bright start on the road though as Gerrit Holtmann's dangerous curl on target caught Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer almost flat-footed with 12 minutes played.
