Henrikh Mkhitaryan wasted BVB's best chance of the first half when he skewed his shot wide of the target after a slick passing exchange had put the Armenian through on goal.

Aubameyang almost put the visitors ahead when Nuri Sahin slid the striker in from a free kick, but his curled effort could not quite find the corner just after the half-hour mark.

Jurgen Klopp's side missed two quick chances in succession with Mkhitaryan and Robert Lewandowski, before Aubameyang scored late on with a header that squeezed over the line.
