Bayern Munich boss delighted with win over Kaiserslautern

But the Dutchman insists that it was not an easy win for Bayern.

“Of course I’m satisfied. It is fantastic when you win 5-1 in the Bundesliga,” Van Gaal told Kicker. “But we also have seen how difficult it was for us.”

“Kaiserslautern played very well and we had a lot of problems in the first half. In the right moments we scored the goals.”

He added: “We are now third, but we still have much work to do and many matches to win.”
