MUNICH, Germany, March 21 (Reuters) - Bayern Munich scored three times in seven minutes to cruise past Union Berlin 4-0 in the Bundesliga on Saturday and open up a 12-point lead at the top while edging closer to an all-time club scoring record.
The Bavarians, chasing three trophies and fresh from their midweek Champions League quarter-final qualification with a 10-2 aggregate win over Atalanta, are on 70 points with second-placed Borussia Dortmund, on 58, playing Hamburg SV later.
Bayern have now scored 97 league goals, four short of equalling the all-time club record in the 1971-72 Bundesliga campaign.
"We will get the record but the priority for me is something else," Bayern coach Vincent Kompany told a press conference. "I am not someone who likes talking about this record. I am not too interested. Your playing style does not stop because the season is coming to an end.
"We must never forget what our strengths are and keep bringing them to the pitch regardless of the opponent."
Bayern have a busy schedule in the coming weeks with a Champions League quarter-final tie against Real Madrid and a German Cup semi-final against Bayer Leverkusen.
