The story in brief
8-second readNico Schlotterbeck acknowledges that Bayern Munich are the favourites for the title, but believes Borussia Dortmund can challenge them and that they proved it in Saturday's game at the Allianz Arena.
From the source
Speaking after Borussia Dortmund's hard-fought 2-2 draw with Bayern Munich on Saturday, Nico Schlotterbeck said he believes the Black and Yellows are better than they are often given credit for in Germany.
The draw ensured Dortmund remain level on points with league leaders Bayern, trailing only on goal difference, and Schlotterbeck hopes a genuine title race will emerge as the season progresses.
“I think we're still underrated in Germany, partly because people keep saying that we don't play the best football. But we are good, and we know it.
