Minute-by-minute report: Thomas Tuchel takes charge of Bayern for the first time against his old team. Join Alex Hess.

The winger whips an early shot at goal from the edge of the box and Kobel lunges to his right and gets to it, but all he can do is push the ball out to the feet of Muller, who once again helps himself from close range. De Ligt attacks the resulting corner with a towering header from the penalty spot and Muller meets the ball at the back post to tap home from under the bar. The good news is that a win here would put crisis-club Bayern on track for the title. 7 mins: A half-chance arrives for Dortmund at Wolf links up nicely with Brandt, who dances forward and feeds Reus charging down the right. His head is in his hands as the balls sails past him and trickles into the net. He cuts into the box and is one-on-one with Kobel but the keeper does well not to commit himself and Coman eventually slips over trying to take the ball around him. Sane cuts inside and when Muller, on the edge of the box, draws his marker toward the ball, the winger picks out his counterpart who is arriving from the other flank. Given the ball from a goal kick, Ryerson sleepwalks down the line into trouble and is robbed by Sané. Bayern surge forward again, Sane reaching a dead end on the right and going back to Kimmich on the edge of the box. 48 mins: Bayern pick up where they left off, Davies charging down the left and nudging back to Coman. It starts in the centre circle with the eventual scorer, who sweeps the ball out to Sane on the right. He spots Choupo-Moting peeling away and with his back to goal, the German takes the chipped pass on his chest before scissor-kicking into the bottom corner.

It was a dream debut for Thomas Tuchel, as he won his first match as Bayern Munich coach 4-2, thrashing his former club Borussia Dortmund in Der Klassiker.
