Bayern stretch lead to 20 points as Dortmund falter sublunate

Jerome Boateng scored an 86th-minute winner as Bayern Munich came from behind twice to beat Dusseldorf 3-2 at the Allianz Arena on Saturday and extend their lead at the top of Bundesliga to 20 points.

Bayern's eighth straight league win was far from routine as the visitors took a early lead -- Mathis Bolly scoring in the 16th minute -- before Thomas Muller equalized on the stroke of halftime.

Despite monopolizing possession for much of the game, Bayern found themselves trailing again in the 71st minute when midfielder Andreas Lambertz scored.
