Grosskreutz top scorer at the Beckenbauer Cup – €75,000 raised for a good cause | OneFootball

The BVB legends kicked off the group stage of the indoor football tournament at the SAP Garden with a 2-1 win over VfB Stuttgart thanks to goals from Ewerthon and Kevin Grosskreutz. There was then a Black & Yellow goal festival against the legends of AC Milan, with two goals apiece from Grosskreutz and Dede, then another by Sven Bender to secure a 5-0 win.

Bayern, who finished the group stage in second place behind the Real Madrid legends and ahead of Ajax Amsterdam, awaited in the semi-finals. The Black & Yellow team, coached by Nobby Dickel and Jörg Heinrich, lost 2-0 to the hosts. In the subsequent match for third place, Grosskreutz's fourth goal of the tournament was enough to avoid a 2-1 defeat. Borussia thus finished the Beckenbauer Cup in fourth place. Bayern won the tournament with a 4-0 victory in the final against the Real Madrid legends. In addition to Grosskreutz, Dede, Ewerthon and Bender, Roman Weidenfeller, Moritz Leitner, Antonio da Silva, Mladen Petric, Lucas Barrios, Oliver Kirch and Patrick Owomoyela also took to the pitch for Borussia.

The tournament proceeds of €75,000 will be donated to the Franz Beckenbauer Foundation. Kevin Grosskreutz said: "Huge respect for what Bayern have organised here. Everyone is very friendly and enjoying themselves. It's great to be here."
