A KLASSIK Lewandowsk­i at the double for Bayern

-

BAYERN MUNICH were back to their devastatin­g best to sink Bundesliga title rivals Borussia Dortmund 4-0 in ‘ Der Klassiker’ last night.

Managerles­s Bayern – just a week after sacking Niko Kovac – ran riot on a night to forget for a demoralise­d Dortmund.

Robert Lewandowks­i, who has scored in every Bayern game this season, helped himself to two more goals against Lucien Favre’s men.

Serge Gnabry and an own goal from Bayern old boy Mats Humme l s a dded to Dortmund’s woes.

SSancho h limped li d off ff after 34 minutes with a thigh injury.

The 19-year-old Londoner must be a major doubt for England’s looming Euro qualifying double-header.

Lewandowks­i has now scored in all 15 of Bayern’s European and Bundesliga games this season, with a tally of 22 across both competitio­ns.

The Pole continued his hot streak after 17 minutes – and Bayern never looked back.

Lewandowsk­i played his part in his side’s second goal moments after the break.

He stepped over Thomas Muller’s cross to allow Gnabry an easy tap- in which was confirmed after a VAR review.

And Lewandowsk­i grabbed his second, receiving Muller’s ball to fire home and put the game beyond Dortmund’s reach.

Hummels’ attempt to stop Thiago Alcantara converting Ivan Perisic’s cross saw him divert the ball into his own net.

Hertha Berlin marked the 30th anniversar­y of the fall of the Berlin Wall by knocking over a replica before their game with RB Leipzig.

The wall had separated Soviet-controlled East Berlin and capitalist West Berlin during the Cold War.

Hertha could have done with a wall in front of their goal as they went down 4-2 in the Olympic Stadium.
