Bayern vs Dortmund

Bayern Munich host Borussia Dortmund in the fixture known as Der Klassiker at Allianz Arena on April 23 in a top-of-the-table Bundesliga clash.

The players are in the tunnel, and both sets of fans are building the cacophony to a crescendo. Lewandowski has had a touch just outside the visitors' penalty area in a central position, only managing to poke the ball out of his control. 50 mins to KO: The 106th Bundesliga meeting between these sides sees Bayern on the brink of a record-extending 31st domestic league title. 8th min.: This has been a quiet start to the game, albeit with plenty of slick passing. There was a touch of fortune about Gnabry slotting in from the right side of the penalty area there, as Dortmund thought they had thwarted a Bayern attack from the opposite flank, only to see the ball roll through to the livewire. Ruthless Bayern pounced after Dortmund lost possession in a dangerous area through Zagadou, affording Muller the chance to locate Lewandowski on the right of the penalty area. 10th min.: Bayern are having the better of possession now, advancing unsuccessfully into the penalty area on several occasions. Kimmich swings in the corner from the right, where a Bayern head nods it back to Gnabry. The winger controls it on his knee just outside the penalty area and slightly to the left of centre, then rockets a volley into the right-hand corner of the helpless Hitz's net. The pass is a little overhit, although Reus still manages to send in a low shot on the angle which the advancing Neuer scrambles to stop with his legs. 45th min.: The hosts deal with a few Dortmund attempts to move forward. 61st min.: Zagadou shows his alertness to block a cross from the left with Lewandowski lurking in front of goal. 58th min.: More promising for Bayern! The would-be champions have withstood something of a storm during this second half, shipping a goal for their troubles.
