Musiala’s late goal earned Bayern a 1-1 draw for against Dortmund

DORTMUND: Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich scored an 85th minute equaliser through in-form Jamal Musiala to rescue a 1-1 draw at Borussia Dortmund in the Klassiker on Saturday and go seven points clear at the top.

Dortmund, who had won their previous six home games in the league this season, took a 27th minute lead through Jamie Gittens’ superb solo effort before the visitors suffered another blow six minutes later when top scorer Harry Kane was taken off injured.

The Bavarians, who had won their last seven matches across all competitions without conceding a goal, improved after the break and carved out a string of chances but lacked some clinical finish.

Unmarked Musiala, however, made no mistake heading in Michael Olise’s cross for his sixth league goal to protect their unbeaten run in the Bundesliga this season.

Bayern are on 30 points in top spot, seven ahead of Eintracht Frankfurt, who are in action at Heidenheim on Sunday while Dortmund remain in fifth on 20.
