Doubles from Miroslav Klose and Thomas Mueller helped Germany to a 4-0 Euro 2012 qualifying victory against Kazakhstan on Saturday.
The result in Kaiserslautern means Germany's perfect record remains intact with five wins from five matches, establishing an eight-point buffer on second-placed Austria.
Klose's brace saw his incredible national team record move to 61 goals from 107 appearances, meaning he just needs eight more goals to top Gerd Mueller's national-team record.
While he has struggled at club level for Bayern Munich, Klose opened his account on Saturday after just three minutes when he met Bastian Schweinsteiger's free-kick at the far post.
Another set-piece proved Kazakhstan's undoing 22 minutes later.
Midfielder Mesut Oezil whipped the cross in and this time it was Mueller - winner of the 2010 FIFA World Cup Golden Boot - who found the back of the net.
Mueller was at it again just before half-time as Kazakhstan's suspect defence was breached once more, with the Bayern Munich striker controlling a long ball from Oezil on his chest before slotting home Germany's third goal.
The match petered out in the second and Germany lost some of their shape, with Kazakhstan coming close to scoring a consolation goal when Zhambyl Kukeyev's effort was denied by the woodwork after 71 minutes.
But just before full-time, Klose added polish to the scoreline with his second to seal a 4-0 win in a match in which Joachim Loew's side were never really tested.
