#3 Can’t overhaul Bayern Munich
Trending
By god, they’ve tried. It’s the perennial challenge for every Bundesliga club, to topple Bayern Munich from their perch, but one that probably grates on Dortmund more than many.
Why?
Because the yellow and blacks have genuine aspirations for being regular title winners but the Bavarians always seem to be able to plant the flag first.
Though not on the domestic stage, they came close to a Champions League victory at Wembley, only to allow Arjen Robben to win it at the death for the Bavarians. And in many respects, that’s the story of this particular battle. Close but no cigar.
There have been occasions when they’ve almost got to within touching distance but almost always fallen away. In some other seasons, they’ve been right royally battered.
Maybe it’s a confidence issue, but whatever it is, they are no closer to getting the Bavarian monkey off of their back.
