Bayern Munich extended their Bundesliga lead to 11 points with a dramatic 3-2 victory over Borussia Dortmund in Der Klassiker. Harry Kane's brace, including a penalty, put Bayern in control before Daniel Svensson's stunning volley leveled the score late. Joshua Kimmich's 87th-minute volley sealed the win for the defending champions.

Dortmund had taken an early lead through Nico Schlotterbeck's header in the 26th minute, but Kane equalized in the 54th and converted a penalty after Schlotterbeck fouled Josip Stanisic. Svensson's spectacular finish from Marcel Sabitzer's cross briefly gave Dortmund hope, but Kimmich's late strike secured Bayern's seventh consecutive league win at Signal Iduna Park since November 2018.

The victory continues Bayern's dominance over their rivals and strengthens their position at the top of the table. Kane's 45th goal of the season and 30th in the Bundesliga highlights his exceptional form, while Bayern's ability to grind out wins in tough away fixtures demonstrates their championship credentials.
