On Tuesday, there was a Bundesliga clash where Munich's Bayern managed to defeat Dortmund's Borussia 1:0 in an away match. The hosts started the match more actively, and Erling Haaland had a chance to put his team in front in the 1st minute. As the first half progressed, the game leveled out, and in the 19th minute, Bayern had a great opportunity, but Serge Gnabry's shot was cleared off the goal line by a former BVB defender. A few minutes later, Kingsley Coman also had a dangerous shot. Bayern scored their goal in the 43rd minute, with Joshua Kimmich beating the opponents' goalkeeper with a fantastic shot from outside the penalty area. The second half started much more actively from the visitors, but they failed to score the equalizer. In the 58th minute, BVB's striker E. Haaland had another excellent opportunity, but his shot was blocked. However, in the replay, it can be seen that the ball hit the opponent's hand after Haaland's shot, but VAR was not used in this episode. In the 83rd minute, Robert Lewandowski could have scored, but his shot hit the post. Dortmund couldn't level the score in the remaining time and Bayern took a firm step towards the championship title. The Munich team increased their advantage over Dortmund to 7 points.
