BERLIN. — Carlo Ancelotti insisted he is focussed on wrapping up the German Bundesliga soccer title before assessing how successful his first season at Bayern Munich has been following a shock German Cup semi-final defeat.

April has been little short of a disaster for Ancelotti and Bayern.

The German champions threw away a 2-1 lead at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday before going down 3-2 to Borussia Dortmund.

That came a week after the Bavarian giants were dumped out of the Champions League at the quarter-final stage by Real Madrid.

Bayern remain on course for a fifth straight Bundesliga, though, and Ancelotti refused to try summing up his first campaign in Munich with four league matches still to play and five more points needed to wrap up the title.

“It’s too soon for that,” said Ancelotti. “We have to now make things clear in the championship (German league) as quickly as possible.” — AFP.
