German League: Dortmund pressure Bayern with 3-2 win at Hoffenheim

Borussia Dortmund battled to a 3-2 victory at European hopefuls Hoffenheim to close in on leaders Bayern Munich. Striker Erling Haaland made it 56 goals in 57 Bundesliga games for the Ruhr valley club.
The win lifted second-placed Dortmund to 43 points, three behind Bayern, who play at Hertha Berlin on Sunday. Dortmund, looking to make it three wins out of three league games this year, got off to a strong start and Haaland tapped in for the lead in the sixth minute from Donyell Malen's first of three goal assists.
Haaland, who had to be taken off injured in the 63rd, has scored 16 times in the league this season. Andrej Kramaric's sensational volley in first-half stoppage time drew the hosts’ level but the visitors struck again in the 58th minute with Marco Reus completing a quickfire passing move with a deft finish.
The match led by German referee Deniz Aitken and hosted at the PreZero Arena, previously known as Rhein-Neckar-Arena.
