Bayern Munich Destroy Borussia Dortmund 6-0, Including Five First-Half Goals

Bayern Munich completely and utterly decimated Borussia Dortmund in Der Klassiker at the Allianz Arena.

The Bavarians were denied the opportunity of winning the title in the game following Schalke's win over Freiburg but that didn't stop them from going goal-crazy in the first half.

Robert Lewandowski bagged a hat-trick against his former side, while James Rodriguez, Thomas Muller and Franck Ribery all got in on the act in a complete and utter annihilation.

You have to go as far back as April 1978 to find the last instance Dortmund had conceded five or more at half-time in a Bundesliga game.

Incredibly, the first five goals were Bayern's first five shots on target. The definition of clinical.

Here's how Twitter reacted to a truly remarkable game:

Bayern are well on truly on a different level in the Bundesliga...
