Make that five Bundesliga assists for Shinji Kagawa and five Bundesliga goals for Marco Reus.

The first half of Borussia Dortmund's fixture versus Augsburg on Sunday saw the two players combine twice in the span of 12 minutes, allowing Thomas Tuchel's side to carry a 3-0 lead into the interval.

First came a moment of brilliance from Kagawa in which he shook off Jan-Ingwer Callsen-Bracker with a phenomenal 360 move before setting up Reus with an exquisite pass.

Then came an equally astounding flash of genius from the Japanese attacking midfielder, as he executed a perfectly timed run and played a back-heel pass to Reus that took out Augsburg's backline.
