Borussia Dortmund recorded their fourth successive Bundesliga victory to climb up to ninth in the table.

Jurgen Klopp's team recorded a 3-0 victory at home to their thanks to goals from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Marco Reus and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

But it was the star pairing of Aubameyang and Reus who stole the show with a creative goal celebration - that included costumes.

The two forwards pulled out Batman and Robin masks when Aubameyang scored the crucial second goal with just 10 minutes remaining in the match at the Westfalonstadion.

With the club rock bottom at Christmas, Klopp has certainly turned things around and look set to make a charge on the European places in the final stages of the season.
