Gomez tricks as Bayern buries Stuttgart
MARIO Gomez scored a hat-trick against his former club to give champion Bayern Munich a 5-3 win at error-prone Stuttgart in the Bundesliga on Sunday.
Bruno Labbadia, making his league debut as Stuttgart's third coach of the season, watched in disbelief as a comedy of errors helped Bayern go 5-1 up in under an hour before his side staged a late fightback.
With Franck Ribery and Thomas Mueller scoring the other goals, Bayern went into the winter break fifth in the table with 29 points, 14 behind leaders Borussia Dortmund.
Stuttgart, one off the bottom with 12 points, faced angry protests from its fans as it left the pitch. "That shouldn't happen, those fans should support the players," said Bayern coach Louis van Gaal in a touchline interview.
Earlier, Bayer Leverkusen missed a chance to regain second place when it was held 2-2 at home by Freiburg. Instead, it went into the break in third spot, behind Mainz 05 on goal difference and 10 points behind the leader.
Dortmund lost 0-1 at Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday, missing the chance to set a points record for the first half of the season and ending a run of eight away wins in a row.
Labbadia began his stint with a 5-1 win over Odense in the Europa League last Thursday and saw Stuttgart make a promising start on Sunday, creating several good chances early on, only to fall apart as it conceded three goals in 12 minutes. The trouble began in the 31st minute when Ermin Bicakcic lost the ball to Thomas Mueller and he slipped it to Gomez, who fired past Sven Ulreich into the roof of the net.
Gomez pounced on more poor defending to return the compliment as he set up the second for Mueller five minutes later and Frenchman Ribery, given far too much space, added the third two minutes before the break with a 25-metre shot.
Halftime substitute Martin Harnik pulled one back for Stuttgart in the 50th minute but it quickly got worse.
Two minutes later, Ulreich fumbled a simple Ribery ball and Gomez, who spent five seasons at Stuttgart before joining Bayern last season, snapped up the rebound.
