I've rarely been so delighted by a Bayern Munich victory

Borussia Dortmund president Hans-Joachim Watzke praised Bayern Munich after their 3-2 win over HSV, singling out the two convincing performances against Atalanta Bergamo. 'I have rarely been so delighted by a Bayern Munich victory because it was so clear-cut. It was brilliant,' he told Sky.

Watzke described FCB as 'currently the best team in Europe'. This season, manager Vincent Kompany’s side could also secure the coveted treble for the third time in the club’s history, with the league all but certain, Real Madrid awaiting in the Champions League quarter-finals and Bayer Leverkusen in the DFB-Pokal semi-finals.

He admitted BVB’s campaign carries 'a blemish' after the painful exit in Bergamo. 'There’s no point beating about the bush. Anyone who comes from the world of football knows that we had a bad day.
