Bayern's Javi Suffers Ligament Injury

Bayern Munich holding midfielder Javi Martinez suffered a suspected cruciate ligament injury in the first half

of their 2-0 German Super Cup loss to Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday, Bayern sports director Matthias Sammer said.

Spain international Martinez was taken off on a stretcher with his knee heavily bandaged after an attempted

bicycle kick with Dortmund defender Marcel Schmelzer marking him in the 29th minute.

Sammer told reporters there were fears it could be a cruciate ligament injury that could keep the player out

for some time but the club has not yet announced the full extent of his injury.
