Bayern attacked

BERLIN. — Borussia Dortmund’s CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke has accused German Bundesliga soccer leaders Bayern Munich of trying to “destroy” them by signing their best players. Bayern paid Dortmund 37 million euros (US$50m) for Germany star Mario Goetze last season and Poland striker Robert Lewandowski is set to follow in May. Dortmund won consecutive Bundesliga titles in 2010-11 and 2011-12, culminating in Borussia’s 5-2 drubbing of Bayern in the German Cup final in May 2012.

Watzke believes it was that result which spurned Bayern into poaching Dortmund’s stars after Munich had twice missed out to Borussia in the league. — AFP.
