We have the place we want, says Kovac after claiming top-spot in Bundesliga

Bayern Munich manager Niko Kovac

Leeds [UK], Oct 27 (ANI): After Bayern Munich claimed the top spot in Bundesliga's points table, manager Niko Kovac said they now have the place they wanted.
"Now we have the place we want. We are now first in the Bundesliga," Goal.com quoted Kovac as saying.
During their Bundesliga clash on Saturday, Bayern Munich registered a 2-1 victory over Union Berlin. The club now has 18 points, one point ahead of the second-placed SC Freiburg.
Lewandowski, who scored the second goal of the match, became the first player to score in the opening nine matches of a Bundesliga season.
"Robert Lewandowski has set a Bundesliga record. That's nice. I'm glad that we all got out of the game healthy today. Because you know what I mean [because of the many injured]," Kovac said.
Despite the victory, Kovac feels there is room for improvement.
"I know we can still do better. If you look at the games from the last few weeks, it's always close games where we only are one goal in front at the end," he said.
Bayern Munich will now compete against Vfl Bochum in DFB Cup on October 30. (ANI)

India withdraw Smith protest as boards make peace in DRS row

India have withdrawn an official protest about the actions of Australia captain Steve Smith in the second test as the governing bodies of both countries moved to bring an end to the acrimony surrounding the ongoing four-match series. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) had earlier registered a complaint to the International Cricket Council (ICC) over Smith looking to the dressing room for guidance on whether to review an lbw decision during the Bengaluru match. Despite the hosts winning the test to level the series at 1-1 on Tuesday, India skipper Virat Kohli alleged the tourists had indulged in the practice throughout the match, sparking a war of words in the media and a robust response from Australia. The boards released a joint statement on Friday saying the chief executives of both bodies had met in Mumbai on Thursday and agreed to try and bring the focus "back to the game" ahead of next week's third test in Ranchi. "India has always cherished a c...
