Berlin (dpa) - It could be a perfect week for Bayern. The record champions will compete in the cup semi-finals and the possibly decisive Bundesliga matchday.
The game will be played again in Spain - however, there will be negotiations in Switzerland. Without the corona pandemic, the EM fever would increase.
POKAL: The DFB Cup also goes into ghost play. The final in Berlin scheduled for July 4th is only one victory away for four clubs. In the first semi-final on Tuesday (8:45 p.m. / ARD and Sky), regional league 1. FC Saarbrücken is hoping for the sensation against Bayer Leverkusen even without spectators. On Wednesday (8:45 p.m. / ARD and Sky), defending champion and record winner FC Bayern will receive Eintracht from Frankfurt. Women's football will also be played in the semi-finals: Arminia Bielefeld will meet VfL Wolfsburg on Wednesday (2 p.m.), and Bayer Leverkusen will play SGS Essen two hours later.
MASTER QUESTION: On Saturday it could be ready. Winning leaders Bayern in the evening (6.30 p.m. / Sky) against Borussia Mönchengladbach and losing Borussia Dortmund beforehand (3.30 p.m. / Sky) to relegation candidate Fortuna Düsseldorf, the eighth title in a row can no longer be taken from Munich. Bayern go seven points ahead of the remaining four game days.
PENALTY: In Lausanne, the international sports court in Manchester begins hearing those responsible for the English champions Manchester City who want to take action against the two-year exclusion from the Champions League. The penalty was pronounced for years of financial fraud - the Cas judgment will therefore have a signal effect on European football. The non-public hearing should last three days and be carried out via video.
RESTART: After almost exactly three months, the ball is rolling again in the Primera Division. FC Sevilla and Betis Sevilla will start on Thursday in the city derby. FC Barcelona will re-enter Mallorca on Saturday, Real Madrid will play Eibar on Sunday. From Friday there will be another game in Turkey.
EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP: The fact that the historic European Championship 2020 should actually begin in twelve European countries on Friday looks almost like from another time. The tournament, like hundreds of sporting events worldwide, had to be postponed due to the corona pandemic. The game is now to be played from June 11th to July 11th, 2021. The European Football Union hopes that all host cities will remain on board and that the game schedule can also be adopted.
