Niko Kovac continued his perfect start at Bayern Munich as Arjen Robben's volley helped the Bundesliga champions beat Bayer Leverkusen 3-1.

Arjen Robben scored a stunner as Bayern Munich came from behind to claim a 3-1 victory over Bundesliga strugglers Bayer Leverkusen, who were reduced to 10 men late on.

Wendell's fifth-minute penalty put Leverkusen ahead at the Allianz Arena, with referee Tobias Welz having ordered the spot-kick to be retaken after Kevin Volland had missed his initial effort.

Bayern quickly equalised through Corentin Tolisso, however, and the hosts took the lead when Robben s£nsat!onally volleyed home in the 19th minute.

James Rodriguez wrapped up the three points a minute from time to maintain Bayern's winning start, after any hopes of a Leverkusen comeback bad been ended by a red card for substitute Karim Bellarabi.
