Bayern Munich's Arjen Robben to miss 'several weeks' with torn abdominal muscle

Bayern Munich dropped their first home match of the Bundesliga season on Sunday, falling 2-0 to Borussia Monchengladbach, but it was the injury to star winger Arjen Robben that was the biggest loss of the day.

The reigning German champions confirmed that the Dutchman, who left the match in the 25th minute, suffered a torn abdominal muscle, and will miss several weeks of action.

Bayern boasts the deepest, most talented squad in the world at the moment, but this could prove a costly loss - in the Champions League, at least - depending on just how long the 31-year-old is out of action.
