Overview

  • Bayern beat Borussia Dortmund 2-1 in Der Klassiker, with Harry Kane heading the opener and Michael Olise adding the second before Julian Brandt pulled one back.
  • The champions have 11 wins from 11 across all competitions and sit on 21 league points from seven matches, five clear of RB Leipzig.
  • Kane has 12 Bundesliga goals in seven games and 22 overall this season, and his long pass launched the move that led to Olise's goal.
  • Dortmund suffered their first defeat in 10 matches across all competitions and dropped to fourth place on 14 points.
  • Vincent Kompany credited Kane's mentality—saying he "unlocked that next level himself"—and praised a "complete" display, with Bayern able to set a national record for consecutive wins from a season start if they beat Club Brugge on Wednesday.
