Bayern Munich boss downplays emphatic win

Bayern Munich manager Jupp Heynckes has played down his side's emphatic 6-1 victory over Lille in the Champions League.

Claudio Pizarro bagged a hat-trick to kill the game off inside the first period, but Heynckes later admitted that the French side were not on their "top form".

"The opponent was not in top form tonight. I do not want to put a dampener on things but that is what it is," BBC Sport quotes him as saying.

Bastian Schweinsteiger, Arjen Robben and Toni Kroos were also on target for the Bavarian side, with Lille's reply coming from Salomon Kalou.

The win leaves Bayern at the top of Group F on goal difference, level on points with Spanish outfit Valencia.
