With the final whistle in Cologne, it was said that Kahn and Brazzo were out of their jobs. The team didn't know that – and was surprised during the championship celebration.

Thomas Müller then found out about it on the Sky microphone. "It wasn't planned that way. The plan was to inform the team first," says president Herbert Hainer. Oliver Kahn had no opportunity to say goodbye to the team after winning the championship. Hasan Salihamidzic wanted to be able to say Goodbye to the FC Bayern team in person.
