Bayern took the lead in the first half thanks to goals from Serge Gnabry and Robert Lewandowski. Dortmund got a goal back through Emre Can from the penalty spot, but Jamal Musiala made it 3-1 late on.
It is the first time in Bundesliga history that a single team has won ten consecutive games. In reality, prior to this Bayern team’s run, the record was three since the modern period began in 1963 — that mark was set by Bayern sides from the 1970s and 1980s, as well as Borussia Monchengladbach.
The current run began with the Bundesliga title in 2012/13, when they reclaimed domestic dominance from a Dortmund squad led by Jurgen Klopp.
