Bayern Munich find a way to get the job done in the end! Ribery scores the winner for the Bavarians that sees them close the gap on Bundesliga leaders Borussia Dortmund. There's just six points between the two teams now. It got a bit nasty towards the end, but Bayern will reflect on a hard-fought win.

SECOND YELLOW! And Sanches has also been sent off for Bayern Munich after getting involved in the aftermath of the tackle from Ilsanker. He raised his hands to the Austrian.

SENT OFF! RB Leipzig will finish this match with 10 men. That was a rash challenge from Ilsanker on Thiago. That was born out of frustration, but still doesn't excuse it. Red card.

Poulsen heads wide! That was a glorious opportunity for RB Leipzig to hit back immediately, but after climbing highest Poulsen puts his header wide of the target. He should have at least tested Neuer.

Well, it didn't kinda feel like that goal was coming for Bayern Munich. They had stepped things up in the past 10 minutes or so. This would be a massive win for the Bavarians.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Bayern Munich 1 (83 mins - Franck Ribery) RB Leipzig 0. Finally, the breakthrough! And it's Bayern Munich who have made it! Upamecano's clearance was a poor one, it bounced off Sanches and the ball fell to Ribery. The French winger then cut his shot back to find the corner of the net.

Into the last 10 minutes of this match and it just feels like Bayern Munich might be turning the screw on RB Leipzig. They have created more in the past five minutes than in the whole match.

Massive chance! That should have been a goal. Kimmich arrived on the scene to meet a Lewandowski header across goal, but his powerful header was clawed out by Gulacsi. Wow.

Sule over the bar! Oh dear. The Bayern Munich centre back should have done so much better with that. Gulacsi dropped a cross, but Sule volleyed over the bar from about eight yards out.
