Javi Martinez fired Bayern Munich to a 1-0 win over Hertha Berlin as the defending champions won their 10th Bundesliga match from 11 to draw level on points with Borussia Dortmund at the top of the table on Saturday.

Bayern were until recently nine points adrift of Dortmund, who lead the Bavarians on goal difference ahead of their match with Bayer Leverkusen on Sunday.

Munich’s man of the moment Martinez – fresh from a superb midweek Champions League performance against Liverpool – put the home side in the lead in the 62nd minute, heading a corner into the top left of the Berlin goal.

Berlin's comeback attempts were scuppered in the 84th minute with centre-back Karim Bekik picking up a red card as his side ran out of steam.

Despite victory, Bayern coach Niko Kovac was concerned about injured winger Kingsley Coman, who limped off the field in the 67th minute.

“In the first half we had some difficulties. A set piece decided this game. On the whole I'm satisfied,” he said.

“For Kingsley we will need to wait for the results of the scan. I hope (the injury) isn't too bad.” (SuperSport)
