STORY OF THE DAY
Bayern Munich finds European glory in Robben's redemption
by Samuel Charles on Saturday, May 25, 2013 5:09 PM EDT

[UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE] Arjen Robben skipped through Borussia Dortmund's defense in the 89th minute of the UEFA
Champions League final Saturday and snatched the winning goal for Bayern Munich at Wembley, bringing joy, catharsis and celebration to a player and a team that have experienced so much high profile
disappointment. With Pep Guardiola and Mario Goetze on board next year to join a club that has dominated all of
Europe this season, one must ask -- is this title thanks to a 2-1 win over Borussia Dortmund only the beginning for Bayern?

Promising start in New York City, except for the FC
It looks like the 20th MLS team will be Manchester City FC. The name will be changed, of course it will. MLS plus ManCity -- plenty of expensive brainpower involved in that discussion, one would
think -- have decided that the new club is to be New York City FC. Which is fine. Except for one thing. You will not win any prizes for working out what's wrong with it, and I shall return to the
matter later in this column.
