Keeper Oliver Kahn Reveals The Wonder Goal That He Still Hasn’t Recovered From
Oliver Kahn collected 86 appearances for Germany and 429 for Bayern Munich. Twice he finished third in Ballon d’Or voting — a sensational achievement for a goalkeeper. So, when Kahn reveals what the greatest goal ever scored on him was, we should all be paying attention.
Having called time on his playing days back the 2008, the now 47-year-old shot stopper took to Twitter to celebrate the anniversary of that goal.
“Exactly 23 years ago today is this sensational goal from Jay-Jay Okocha — and I’m still dizzy…” said Kahn.

Borussia Dortmund Are Frighteningly Good, But Bayern Munich Remain Untouchable In Germany
Carlo Ancelotti has already accomplished something that Pep Guardiola was never able to do at Bayern Munich: win the German Super Cup. Guardiola was unsuccessful in three attempts, but Ancelotti has landed an early trophy in his Bayern reign by defeating their Der Klassiker rival Borussia Dortmund 2-0.

I've been waiting for a long time for the right opportunity to write about how dope Philipp Lahm is, and I've finally found it.
New Bayern Munich manager Carlo Ancelotti has reportedly handed over disciplinary duties to his captain, which is a great decision.
Lahm is roughly 5'7" and 145 lbs, so he's not a physically intimidating dude, but, man, can you imagine Lahm telling someone to do something and them not doing it? I can't.
