Bayern Munich split through against Borussia Dortmund, knock competitors out of... - NBCSports.com

The space between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund was massive every where but the scoreboard, but even there, Arjen Robben divided the two sides. A straightening first half shot from nearby the arc in todayas German Cup quarterfinal gave FCB a win over the holders, Bayernas first aggressive success over BVB since Feb. 2010. The win also have Bayern redemption for Mayas 5-2 defeat in the previous Pokal final, a match that saw the Bavarians uncomfortable by Germanyas new rulers That reign is obviously over. Having finally dropped in a head-to-head meeting with Bayern, Borussia Dortmund have no more states to the throne. In case a 17-point lead in the Bundesliga wasnat convincing enough, the chasm between the two sides at the Allianz confirmed. Bayern is again the standard in German basketball. And eventually, it had been a fortunate result for Dortmund, have been dominated from the get-go. As Bayernas post-match celebrations confirmed, their mission was certainly one of redemption, making use of their early power giving a benefit to them they never relinquished. The only goal was created by the resulting pressure, with Phillip Lahmas large attempts and a Felipe Santana error ultimately causing the ball that found Robben. Germanyas protecting champions had only one shot on goal. Bayern had nine. They also managed 57 percent of the possession was no surprise, given how Jurgen Kloppas arrive at create against Bayern, but with Dortmund not able to create odds on the table, this was among the more lopsided 1-0 benefits youall see between top groups. The inequality in play required you to stop and think about the recovery. A year ago, the Bavarians had no answer for BVB. Now theyare in still another world, impressive a lot better than a competitor that won a Champions League group that presented Real Madrid. Bayernas plainly the best team in the world today, however for a membership thatas dropped two of the last three Champions League finals, the question is if they could keep this form over the next three-and-a-half weeks. They have to carry this impetus to Mayas Champions League final at Wembley. Given this could be the degree theyave played at since August, itas hard to see them collapsing. The only real problem in my mind is whether Jupp Heynckes could possibly get this team ready for the winner-takes-all fit that awaits them in May. They stumbled last year and were upset at home by Chelsea. Will whatever befell them last year keep them from looking this yearas title? Hereas the dayas only goal, Arjen Robben beating Roman Weidenfeller to affect Borussia Dortmund out of the German Cup.
