BERLIN cheap nike air max 90 ultra se , March 19 (Xinhua) -- Robert Lewandowski's goal helped Bayern to edge Cologne 1-0 while Hertha Berlin tightened their third place with a 2-1 victory over newly promoted Ingolstadt at the 27th round in the German Bundesliga on Saturday.
Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich reaped a 1-0 victory over Cologne thanks to Lewandowski's 25th goal of the season. The Polish international has set a new club record for most Bundesliga goals by a non-German in one season.
Josep Guardiola gave five players a rest but that did not stop the German giants from opening the scoring with just 10 minutes into the game as Lewandowski utilized a clearance inside the box to beat Cologne keeper Timo Horn into the far corner.
Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer had little to do at the other end of the pitch as defensively minded Cologne got only a free kick on target before the break.
However, the hosts increased their efforts after the halftime but they had to wait until the 73rd minute, when David Alaba had to block Anthony Modeste's shot onto the empty goal. Lewandowski and Kingsley Coman created another two promising opportunities for the "Bavarians" in the closing period.
Nevertheless, Cologne's Leonardo Bittencourt had the leveller on his foot but Neuer parried the shot from very close range to avoid the share of spoils in the dying minutes of the game.
With the result, Bayern Munich stay atop the standings with an eight-point advantage for the moment, while Cologne remain on the 9th place.
Hertha Berlin defended their third place and the direct berth for the UEFA Champions League thanks to a 2-1 victory over newly promoted Ingolstadt.
Ingolstadt's well-positioned defence drove the hosts into desperation at the first half. Berlin had to be patient and to wait after the break, as Genki Haraguchi tapped home Marvin Plattenhardt's pinpoint cross into the box with 54 minutes played.
Hertha gained momentum and doubled the lead 15 minutes later after Haraguchi assisted Salomon Kalou, who slotted home from five meters. Ingolstadt remained unimpressed and restored parity by courtesy of joker Lukas Hinterseer cheap nike air max 90 pinnacle , whose header overcame Berlin custodian Rune Jarstein to reduce the arrears to 1-2 in the 75th minute.
Ingolstadt pressed frenetically for the leveller but Berlin remained cool to protect their neat lead to the end.
After reaping the 14th victory of the season, Berlin established a four-point cushion to fourth placed Schalke. Meanwhile, Ingolstadt continue on the 10th place.
Elsewhere, Claudio Pizarro's 101st Bundesliga goal for Werder Bremen equalled Marco Bode's record, and secured the hosts a 1-1 draw with Mainz.
Wolfsburg suffered a setback in the race for a place in Europe as Andre Schuerrle secured the "Wolves" one point against newly promoted Darmstadt.
Hoffenheim eased their relegation worries after earning their second straight win with a 3-1 victory over Hamburg whilst struggling Frankfurt snatched a 1-0 triumph to inflict last-placed Hannover the fourth loss in row.
The following fixtures conclude the 27th round on Suday: Stuttgart host Bayer Leverkusen and Augsburg encounter runner-up Dortmund.
CANBERRA, March 8 (Xinhua) -- The Chinese takeover of Australia's largest agricultural land holding, S. Kidman & Co., has received a lifeline cheap nike air max 97 , with a local investment company announcing it will partner the Shanghai-based group in the new bid.
Shanghai Pengxin's previous deal to acquire 101,000 square-km of Australian farming land, reportedly worth almost 275 million U.S. dollars, was shot down by Australia's Treasurer Scott Morrison last year, after he found it failed to meet the prescribed "national interest" test.
Since the decision, the sale of the vast Kidman empire, which boasts land across South Australia, Western Australia cheap nike air max flair , Queensland and the Northern territory, has remained in limbo.
On Tuesday, however, Australian Rural Capital (ARC) revealed that it had resubmitted a joint bid with Shanghai Pengxin.
"It is the current intention of ARC to seek to raise equity funds in the Australian capital markets which will enable Australian investors the unique and direct opportunity to invest in Kidman in a fund andor investment company managed by ARC," it said in a statement to the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX).
The ARC is looking to diversify its business operations from just cotton to include beef, sugar, wine and nuts.
Under the revised bid, Shanghai Pengxin will not acquire any of the Kidman group's property in South Australia's Woomera Prohibited Area (WPA) cheap nike air presto , the largest land-based military testing facility in the world.
The Australian government has been reluctant to allow the sale of that stretch of land, which comprises about half of the the group's entire estate, to a foreign bidder, as any successful company would need to gain clearance to access the restricted area.
The new Shanghai Pengxin-ARC bid will be analyzed by the Australia Investment Review Board, before the Treasurer can make another ruling.
However, reports indicate that the sale may be two-horse race, with Hong Kong group Genius Link Asset Management also planning to tender a separate bid.
S. Kidman & Co exports beef to Japan, the United States and throughout Southeast Asia.
