Bayern Munich overcame Borussia Dortmund by three goals to two in a thrilling Der Klassiker win in the Bundesliga.
Robert Lewandowski netted the winner from the spot in the 77th minute as the Bavarians won their sixth consecutive league tie against their historic rivals.
Julian Brandt opened the scoring for the home side in the fifth minute, before the Pole equalized just minutes later on the break.
Kingsley Coman then put the visitors in front just before the break while Erling Haaland restored parity soon into the second period.
A handball inside the box gave the Bavarians a penalty. Lewandowski made no mistake from the spot, even though Gregor Kobel got a hand to it.
Bayern Munich moved four points clear at the top of the table. Here are the hits and flops from the match:
Hit: Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich)
Robert Lewandowski loves playing in the Klassiker, having struck 24 goals against his old club from as many games coming into last night. Now he's bagged two more.
He equalized for the Bavarians just minutes after Brandt's opener through the counter. However, the goal was all about Thomas Muller's block on Mats Hummels in the build-up.
In the second period, with just over 10 minutes remaining on the clock, the Pole calmly slotted from the spot for his second of the night.
It takes his tally to 16 league goals for the season and 27 in all competitions. Supernatural stuff from Lewandowski this season.
Flop: Mats Hummels (Borussia Dortmund)
Mats Hummels had a torrid night on the pitch. The defender was directly responsible for all three of Bayern Munich's goals.
His first mistake was the worst. The German defender was caught out at the back by Muller, who blocked his pass and laid off for Lewandowski to finish on the counter.
The second was down to a poor clearance from Raphael Guerreiro, albeit it came off Hummels and landed straight in Coman's feet. His third mistake led to Dortmund conceding a penalty.
Hummels is a Bayern Munich graduate and the visitors must have secretly thanked him for his valuable 'assists'.
Hit: Erling Haaland (Borussia Dortmund)
Having come off the bench to score last weekend after returning from an injury, Erling Haaland bagged another goal against Bayern Munich last night.
He was a thorn in the face of the mighty visitors, using his electric pace to hit them on the break time and time again as the Bavarians left the backdoor open.
The Norwegian struck a lovely curling shot into the net to bring Der BVB level early into the second period.
Flop: Raphael Guerreiro (Borussia Dortmund)
Hummels was a total disaster-show in defense for Dortmund but Raphael Guerreiro had a poor game as well.
The Portuguese left-back was clearly unsettled by the occasion, looking all too hurried on the ball. He completed only 72% of his passes.
He was also responsible for Bayern Munich's second goal, making a poor clearance that came off Hummels before landing at Coman's feat which the Frenchman buried.
Hit: Thomas Muller (Bayern Munich)
With one assist, three key passes and three shots, Thomas Muller had a stormer in the Klassiker.
The Raumdeuter expertly moved in around tight spaces to keep it ticking for the Bavarians. He set up Lewandowski for the opener after catching Hummels at the back.
He looked to go for goal himself a few times but unfortunately his efforts were blocked, although it caused some worrying moments in Dortmund's half.
A veteran of 39 Klassiker appearances, Muller registered his eighth assist in the fixture, all coming in the league, and the first since November 2019.
