Extra-time goals from Arjen Robben and Thomas Mueller handed Bayern Munich a 2-0 German Cup final victory over rivals Borussia Dortmund to secure a tenth domestic double.

Dutchman Robben, who scored the winner against Dortmund in the Champions League final last season, tapped in at the far post in the 107th minute after the country’s top two teams slugged it out in a goalless but entertaining 90 minutes.

Mueller then raced clear deep in stoppage time to complete the win immediately after Marco Reus had missed a chance to equalise.

Victory ended a bad run for Bayern, who had won the league title with seven games to spare in Pep Guardiola’s first season in charge before hitting a slump in form, including a comprehensive Champions League semi-final defeat to Real Madrid.

“We are here, won the double, had a super season and that’s the bottom line,”  Robben told ARD television.

“It was a very important goal. This was a Cup, and we really wanted to win it.”
