Robert Lewandowski’s hat-trick saw Bayern Munich fight back from trailing 2-0 inside the opening 10 minutes to beat Borussia Dortmund 4-2 in Der Klassiker.
Dortmund had appeared on course for a first win at the Allianz Arena since the 2012/13 campaign after Erling Haaland’s early brace.
Lewandowski, though, started the fightback when he turned the ball in at the back post in the 26th minute, before levelling from a penalty just before half-time, which had been given following a VAR review.
Leon Goretzka completed the turn-around when he volleyed in a clearance during the 88th minute.
There was still enough time for Lewandowski, the Bundesliga’s top scorer, to chalk up his treble in added time with a low shot from outside the box.
