With the result, Hoffenheim tightened their third place spot in the standings after beating Bayern for the first time in their history. The Bundesliga leaders remain atop the standings with 65 points and a 13-point advantage over runners-up Leipzig.

Fourth-placed Borussia Dortmund is close on Hoffenheim' s heels after the BVB downed Hamburg with one early and two late goals to ensure their 14th win of the season.

Thomas Tuchel's men caught a bright start on home soil as Gonzalo Castro opened the scoring with 13 minutes played after curling home a free kick into the top right corner from 20 meters.

Dortmund created a number of opportunities, but Rene Adler denied Aubameyang several chances to extend the lead. Meanwhile, Filip Kostic and Bobby Wood worked out opportunities at the other end of the pitch.

Nevertheless, the hosts cut a better figure in front of the goal area as Aubameyang outpaced Albin Ekdal in a square pass into the path of Shinji Kagawa, who tapped in at the far post in the 81st minute.

Dortmund gained momentum in the closing period and rounded off the game with a third goal when Aubameyang utilized Kagawa's through ball to round Hamburg goalie Rene Adler for the 25th goal of the season.

With the victory, Dortmund remain on fourth place, one point adrift of third. Hamburg sit on 14th place and in striking distance of the relegation zone.

Elsewhere, Bremen secured their third win in a row after crushing Schalke 3-0 while Cologne edged Eintracht Frankfurt, who are still waiting for a win after five games.
