Lahm delighted with ‘important’ win

A last-gasp strike by Italian striker Luca Toni handed Bayern the win.

“We took the initiative as a team,” said Lahm after the game. “After going a goal down, we went at them and created chances.

“But I still think we didn’t keep it tight enough. We should have played a little more defensively. We let them have too many chances.

“We were able to maintain the pace for the full 90 minutes. We’re fit, and we kept hammering away right to the end.

“Hoffenheim aren’t top of the league without good reason, but we’ve taken all three points off them today, which is incredibly important.”
