Bayern Munich: Player ratings from comeback victory over Mainz
By Daniel Garza
RW, Leroy Sane-7/10
It was a much-needed goal for Sane as he registered his first goal in the Bundesliga since matchday seven. The winger dispatched a long-range effort past the Mainz goalkeeper for his fourth goal of the season in the Bundesliga. Sane is yet to get a consistent run in the starting XI this season, so the goal against Mainz will be huge for his confidence. Die Roten will be hoping that Sane now kicks on and discovers his best form during the second half of the season.

LW, Serge Gnabry, 7/10
Gnabry may have not registered an official goal or an assist in the match, but he was certainly involved in the scoring. The German winger drew the penalty kick that led to Lewandowski’s successful penalty kick conversion and he also provided the pass to Lewandowski, who then set up Kimmich for Bayern’s first goal.
CAM, Thomas Müller-7/10
Müller led the way for Bayern in terms of key passes as he registered four against Mainz. He finished with one assist as he set up Lewandowski’s second goal of the match. The attacking midfielder won the header off the corner kick that led to Süle’s goal, which proved to a crucial moment.
