Bayern Munich outclassed title rivals Borussia Dortmund 3-1 away on Saturday to go four points clear at the top of the Bundesliga and stretch their perfect run under Jupp Heynckes. David Alaba’s intended cross ended up in the back of the net in the 67th minute to seal the win before Marc Bartra grabbed a late goal for Dortmund. Bayern, five points behind Dortmund only three weeks ago, are top on 26 points, with RB Leipzig, 2-1 winners against Hanover 96, second on 22. Robben completed a fine move with a trademark shot to become Bayern’s all-time top foreign scorer with his 93rd league goal. Bartra’s 88th-minute goal was purely cosmetic, with pressure on the Dortmund manager, Peter Bosz, now mounting considerably.
