Bayern Munich playmaker Bastian Schweinsteiger has criticised Nuremburg for their behaviour during yesterday's 185th Bavarian derby.

The Bundesliga leaders were held to a 1-1 draw at the Frankenstadion and Schweinsteiger was angry with his opponents.

"Nurnberg can't do it any other way, especially not in the derby," he said.

"Personally, I don't know what you can call it. They always tried to influence the referee and were provoking all the time with time-wasting, staying down on the floor, with small things which had an influence.

"We also committed fouls, but they always went for the body. That's not something I take kindly to. I have had enough injuries in the past and it wasn't easy for the referee today. It wasn't any fun today."

Munich still lead the Bundesliga by eight points from Schalke.
