Thomas Muller delighted by Bayern Munich record

Thomas Muller has expressed his delight after helping Bayern Munich to a record-breaking ninth straight win in the Bundesliga this season.

The 26-year-old scored the only goal in a 1-0 victory over Werder Bremen as the German champions continued their perfect start to the new campaign.

"We got the full three points regardless of whether it is a record or not," Muller told Bayern's official website. "But it is obviously a great feat. That is a tough job to repeat for any team.

"We dominated proceedings and got a few more good chances in the second half. We saw some hectic situations in the Bremen area.

"We would obviously have liked to score a second goal, because it remained a tight affair right until the end. We put in a fine performance overall, though."

Bayern are seven points clear of Borussia Dortmund at the top of the Bundesliga table.
