His strike was cancelled out by Sofiane Hanni but Corentin Tolisso headed home 13 minutes from time to seal victory.
The result, which came as Celtic were routed by Paris Saint-Germain, confirms the Bundesliga outfit's progression to the knock-out stages.
Atletico Madrid beat 10-man Roma 2-0 to keep their faint hopes of joining Chelsea in the next round alive.
Antoine Griezmann and Kevin Gameiro were on target ion the second half as Bruno Peres saw red for the Italians. Roma are playing minnows Qarabag in their final outing and maintain a two-point lead over their Spanish rivals.
And, finally, Sporting Lisbon recorded a routine 3-1 victory over Olympiakos to close the gap to second-place Juventus, who drew with Barcelona.
Bas Dost's brace and a Bruno Cesar strike put the Portuguese in command before Vadis Odjidja-Ofoe score a late consolation. Bayern's win was overshadowed by events off the field as their fans hurled fake money onto the pitch.
They were protesting the staggering £89 ticket prices as German clubs continue to lead the way in driving down prices for hard-pressed supporters.
