Germany remain unbeaten at the top of 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifying Group C after easing to victory against Kazakhstan in Astrana.
Two goals in quick succession from Thomas Müller, diverting in a Bastian Schweinsteiger effort, and Mario Götze put the initially stuttering visitors on track in the Astrana Arena, before Müller rounded off the scoring in the second half.
