Borussia Dortmund beat RB Leipzig 2-1, handing them their first league defeat this season and relieving the pressure on under-fire coach Nuri Sahin.
Dortmund came into the game with four losses in their past five games, including Tuesday's German Cup elimination by Wolfsburg -- their earliest exit in 15 years.
Dortmund spurned several clear-cut chances early before Benjamin Sesko put Leipzig in front after 27 minutes, blasting in off the crossbar.
The hosts hit back three minutes later, Maximilian Beier tapping in a ball in the box for his first Dortmund goal since arriving in the summer.
With just over half an hour remaining, Beier looped a cross in to Serhou Guirassy, who headed Dortmund in front, his fifth goal in his past six league games.
The win sent Dortmund fifth while Leipzig now sit three points behind league leaders Bayern.
