Erling Braut Haaland scored a brace to help Borussia Dortmund come from behind three times to claim a thrilling Bundesliga victory away at Bayer Leverkusen.
Haaland, who also grabbed an assist, cancelled out Florian Wirtz’s opener with a towering header and later scored the winner from the penalty spot.
It was a frantic encounter where Czech Republic striker Patrik Schick and French winger Moussa Diaby scored for Leverkusen but goals from Haaland, Julian Brandt and Raphael Guerreiro saved Dortmund.
England midfielder Jude Bellingham thought he had s cored for Dortmund shortly before half time but it was ruled out and then Schick capitalized to put Leverkusen in the driving seat going into the break.
But Leverkusen’s lead lasted only minutes into the second half as Brandt controlled Haaland’s pass with his heel before firing into the roof of the net.
Six minutes later, Diaby’s long-range strike made it 3-2 to the hosts but Guerreiro’s superb free-kick once again leveled matters for the visitors.
Marco Reus was eventually awarded a penalty when he was struck in the face by the arm of Odilon Kossounou and Haaland kept his cool to slot in the winner for Dortmund in the 77th minute.
