Augsburg 2-3 Bayern Munich: Report, Ratings & Reactions as Coman Sparks Comeback in Bavarian Derby

Bayern Munich moved to within two points of Borussia Dortmund at the top of the league table thanks to a 3-2 win over FC Augsburg in the Bavarian derby, but it was an uphill battle from the outset as Niko Kovau010d's side twice had to come from behind.

The hosts had the ball in the back of the net just 15 seconds after kickoff when Philipp Max's low cross was turned into his own net by Leon Goretzka, with Manuel Neuer helpless to keep out the deflected effort.

Bayern Munich didn't take long to get the game by the scruff of the neck despite their early setback, and Kingsley Coman pulled the visitors back on level terms with a smart finish underneath goalkeeper Gregor Kobel.
