BERLIN (Reuters) - Bayern Munich's attacking midfielder Mario Goetze will miss Saturday's German Cup final against former club Borussia Dortmund having suffered a broken rib in their final league game, the German champions said on Friday.

Goetze, who was selected in Germany's preliminary Euro 2016 squad, scored twice but also broke a rib and fractured another in their 3-1 season-ending league win over Hanover 96 on Saturday, an injury that will sideline him for about two weeks.
