BORUSSIA DORTMUND v MONACOBayern 4-1 Dortmund (Ribéry 4, Lewandowski 10 68p, Robben 49; Raphaël Guerreiro 20)Dortmund missed a chance to overtake third-placed Hoffenheim as they were comfortably defeated in Munich. The only consolation was Raphaël Guerreiro's blistering volley but BVB will rue a key passage of play when Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was unable to find the net after being sent clear and Bayern went up the other end and won the penalty which made it 4-1.
