In the German Bundesliga, RB Leipzig have demolished hosts Schalke 5-nil to remain in the hunt for the Bundesliga title, as they are just one point behind leaders Bayern Munich.

Leipzig got on the scoresheet only a minute into the match, when Marcel Sabitzer scored with a powerful strike from the edge of the box.

Leipzig waited almost an hour to double the lead, with their top scorer Timo Werner grabbing his 21st goal of the season.

The visitors then scored three more goals to register their second league win in a row. They are now on 48 points, one behind reigning champions Bayern Munich, who beat Paderborn 3-2 on Friday.
