Borussia Dortmund will go into the last day of the Bundesliga season next weekend with the title race still alive after winning their final home game on Saturday.

Chasers Dortmund beat Fortuna Dusseldorf 3-2 at Westfalenstadion to close the gap on leaders Bayern Munich, who were held to a 0-0 draw at RB Leipzig.

The results left Bayern two points clear of Dortmund with a vastly superior goal difference, meaning Lucien Favre's side need to beat Borussia Monchengladbach and hope that their title rivals lose at home to Eintracht Frankfurt.
