Kahn breaks record
Bayern Munich's Oliver Kahn played in a Bundesliga-record 535th game for a goalkeeper Sunday.
The 38-year-old Kahn played against Hamburger SV to move past VfB Stuttgart's Eike Immel by one match.
Kahn has now played the fifth-highest number of games out of all players in the German league. Karl-Heinz Koerbel leads that category with 602 matches.
Kahn plans to retire at the end of the season and coach goalkeepers in Asia.
