Bayern Munich came from a goal down to beat Bavarian neighbours Augsburg in an eight-goal thriller.
Mergim Berisha put Augsburg ahead after two minutes before Joao Cancelo equalised with his first Bayern goal.
Benjamin Pavard netted twice in a game for the first time in his career and Leroy Sane headed in for a 4-1 lead.
Berisha’s penalty gave Augsburg hope but Alphonso Davies scored his first league goal in more than two years before Irvin Cardona made it 5-3.
Victory took Bayern three points above Borussia Dortmund at the top of the Bundesliga – with Dortmund currently playing Schalke.
Third-placed RB Leipzig beat Borussia Monchengladbach 3-0 with goals from Timo Werner, Emil Forsberg and Josko Gvardiol.
