Bayern Munich came from a goal down to beat Borussia Dortmund 3-2 at Signal Iduna Park as the Bavarian giants moved two points clear atop the Bundesliga standings.

Both sides came into ‘Der Klassiker’ having won five and lost once in their opening six matches and they could not be split at the end of a frantic first half as Marco Reus’ opener was soon cancelled out by David Alaba.
