Harry Kane scored two second-half goals as Bayern Munich came from behind to beat Borussia Dortmund in a thrilling match and move 11 points clear at the top of the Bundesliga.
The England striker took his tally to 45 goals in all competitions this season as Bayern became the first team to inflict a home league defeat on Dortmund.
Kane, who passed 500 career goals this month, scored twice in 16 minutes to put Bayern ahead after Nico Schlotterbeck's opener.
Dortmund thought they had snatched a point when Daniel Svensson's thumping volley sent Signal Iduna Park into pandemonium.
But that was until Joshua Kimmich's strike three minutes from time kept Bayern in pole position to win a 14th title in 15 seasons.
Schlotterbeck headed Dortmund ahead in the 26th minute when he rose highest in a crowded penalty area to connect with Svensson's free-kick from the left.
Dortmund had the chance to double their lead later in the half when Fabio Silva squared the ball to Maximilian Beier, who was denied by the onrushing Jonas Urbig.
Despite dominating possession in the first half, Bayern - playing with a front three of Kane, Michael Olise and Luis Diaz - were unable to test Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel.
But Kane equalised early in the second period with a poacher's effort from inside the area at the end of a slick move involving Kimmich and Serge Gnabry.
Both teams missed chances before Kane scored a penalty - a record 10th in a Bundesliga season - after Josip Stanisic was floored by Schlotterbeck.
Dortmund levelled when Svensson volleyed past Urbig, but Kimmich all but ended their hopes of winning a first title since 2012.
