The meetings between the German titans are called “Der Klassiker”. The nomination is based on the time when Borussia Dortmund threatened Bayern Munich’s football power every year.
In recent years, these classics have been exceptionally one-sided. Even this fall, Dortmund was already four points behind the Bavarians before the start of the mutual match.
After that, the difference is now seven points.
Harry Kane headed Bayern into the lead midway through the opening period By Joshua Kimmich from the corner kick.
The match seemed to have already been decided when the substitute Jobe Bellingham fumbled with the ball in front of his own goal in the 79th minute and conceded Michael Olisen to slip a 2–0 lead to the hosts.
However, the black and yellow ones got on top of the goal at the end of a great attack. Norwegian Julian Ryerson centered and was only on the field for a while Julian Brandt completed the visitors’ 2–1 reduction.
However, more goals were not seen at the Allianz Arena. Bayern Munich leads the Bundesliga with a clean sheet after seven rounds.
Second place Leipzig is already five points behind.
At the same time in London, Arsenal beat Fulham 1-0 in the Premier League by Leandro Trossand at the goal of the second period.
The result guarantees that the Gunners will continue at the top of the league, regardless of the result of Sunday’s Liverpool-Manchester United match.
