Bayern Munich defended the top spot in the standings after overpowering runners-up Borussia Dortmund 3-2 by courtesy on Robert Lewandowski’s brace following a fast-paced encounter at the 14th round in Bundesliga on Saturday.
The “BVB” took the reins from the kick off and caught a perfect start in front of home crowd as Jude Bellingham’s pass into path allowed Julian Brandt to beat Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer with a well-placed shot into the top right corner with five minutes played.
Bayern remained unimpressed and found an answer four minutes later when Robert Lewandowski capitalized on Thomas Muller’s header to slot home the 1-1 equalizer into the bottom right.
Both sides exchanged attacks, but Bayern took the upper hand and controlled possession as Kingsley Coman pulled wide from promising position in the 23rd minute before his dangerous shot on target got refused by Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel three minutes later.
