After a tense opening half an hour, which saw a lot of strong challenges flying in, Bayern struck first with 33 minutes on the clock.
Leon Goretzka’s low shot from 20 yards out found its way through a crowded penalty area and past Dortmund ‘keeper Alexander Meyer as it nestled into the far corner.
Both sides made tactical changes at the break to try and affect the second half, and Bayern were the side to double their advantage in the 52nd minute.
Dortmund’s Meyer was unable to keep out Leroy Sane’s powerful strike from outside the area despite getting a glove on it, as BVB had their backs against the wall.
However, with 15 minutes to play, the home side had a lifeline as Youssoufa Moukoko slotted home coolly from inside the area past Manuel Neuer to become the youngest goalscorer in this historical fixture.
BVB kept applying the late pressure in the dying embers of the game, and then in the fourth minute of stoppage time, Anthony Modeste headed in Nico Schlotterbeck’s cross at the back post right in front of the famous Yellow Wall to send Signal Iduna Park into raptures and cruelly snatch the win away from Bayern in the final seconds.
