Borussia Dortmund have taken the Bundesliga lead with a convincing victory over Bayern Munich in their opening match of the new season.

The game was played at Signal Iduna Park and saw Dortmund come out on top thanks to a goal from forward Jadon Sancho in the first half.

It was a stunning start for the visitors, who had previously dominated the league for several years but were looking to make a comeback after losing key players such as Robert Lewandowski and Kingsley Coman to injury.

Bayern Munich, who have won the last four titles in a row, struggled to find their feet and were left struggling to create any real chances throughout the game.

Despite this, they still managed to maintain possession for much of the second half and created some good opportunities before eventually conceding late on.

Dortmund, meanwhile, showed great composure and clinical finishing to secure all three points and move ahead of Bayern Munich in the table.

The win also marks the return of Sancho, who has been away on international duty with England since the end of last season.

He was one of the stars of the show on Saturday, scoring the only goal of the game in the first half to put his side in control.

The victory is a big boost for Dortmund, who will be hoping to continue their impressive form in the coming weeks.

Overall, it was a fantastic display from both teams and it looks like there could be plenty more exciting football to come in the upcoming season.
