Bayern Munich edged an entertaining game with RB Leipzig to go nine points clear at the top of the Bundesliga.
Thomas Muller slotted in a rebound after Peter Gulacsi parried Robert Lewandowski’s shot but Andre Silva poked in an equaliser.
Lewandowski scored a powerful header from Kingsley Coman’s cross before Christopher Nkunku’s clever finish for seventh-placed Leipzig.
Bayern won it when Serge Gnabry’s shot was deflected in by Josko Gvardiol.
It was a 310th career Bundesliga win for Bayern Munich’s Manuel Neuer, equalling the record of fellow goalkeeper Oliver Kahn.
Second-placed Borussia Dortmund host Bayer Leverkusen, who are third, on Sunday.
