Javi Martinez is Bayern Munich’s Mr. Super Cup. Seven years after scoring an extra-time goal to help Bayern win their last UEFA Super Cup, Martinez netted the winner in the 104th minute as the German club beat Sevilla 2-1 in the European curtain raiser in a stadium partially filled with fans. Europa League champions Sevilla took an early lead when David Alaba fouled Ivan Rakitic and Lucas Ocampos converted the 13th-minute penalty. Champions League winners Bayern leveled when Leon Goretzka hammered in a ball expertly cued up for him by Robert Lewandowski in the 34th. Bayern lifted a fourth trophy in three months after the Bundesliga, German Cup and Champions League.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
