Bundesliga: 5 Star Bayern Extend Lead On Top

Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich will take a four-point lead into Tuesday's top-of-the-table clash with Borussia Dortmund following an entertaining victory over Eintracht Frankfurt.

With Dortmund having narrowed the gap at the top to a single point earlier on Saturday, Bayern staged the perfect response, barring one three-minute period.

Leon Goretzka's superb strike and a close-range Thomas Muller finish gave them a 2-0 half-time lead, which Robert Lewandowski added to with a header less than a minute into the second half.

But Frankfurt staged an unlikely fightback, scoring twice in three minutes through defender Martin Hinteregger - the first a mishit volley, the second a header from a corner.

However, any hopes the visitors had of a famous result were dashed when Alphonso Davies capitalised on a defensive mistake to make it 4-2 before Hinteregger bundled the ball over his own line following Serge Gnabry's flick for Bayern's fifth.
