Zwayer rejected Dortmund's appeals for a penalty before giving their rivals a spot-kick for a Mats Hummels handball.
A statement on the German FA’s official website said: “The control committee of the German Football Association (DFB) has initiated an investigation against Jude Bellingham.
Robert Lewandowski scored the penalty to secure victory for Bayern.

One Dortmund told us: "Yes, the performance of the referee wasn't the best. Yes, we were very unlucky at times. We have to stop making silly mistakes if we are going to challenge Bayern Munich."
