Mario Gotze, Thomas Muller, David Alaba and Claudio Pizarro all scored for Pep Guardiola's side with summer signing Robert Lewandowski missing a late penalty, just a minute after Rogier Krohne snatched a consolation for the third division side from the spot.

Fellow Bundesliga side Hoffenheim made even lighter work of USC Paloma with Sven Schipplock on target five times in a 9-0 win. Tarik Elyounoussi, Ermin Bicakcic, Adam Szalai and Anthony Modeste also scored for Markus Gisdol's men.

Elsewhere, second-division 1860 Munich came from behind to beat Holstein Kiel, Aalen beat Rehden in a penalty shoot-out and Erzgebirge Aue defeated Jena 1-0. Karslruhe won at Neubrandenburg, but Fortuna Dusseldorf lost out to Wurzburg after extra-time.
