Before the DFB Cup game between FC Bayern and Eintracht Frankfurt, ARD man Matthias Opdenhövel made two faux pas in a TV interview with Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.
- It will be strange before the DFB Cup match between FC Bayern * and Eintracht Frankfurt .
- ARD man Matthias Opdenhövel talks to Karl-Heinz Rummenigge for a double mega dropout.
- On Twitter , the TV interview causes malice and criticism.
Munich - "Good evening to the studio" - greeted Karl- Heinz Rummenigge cheerfully before the DFB Cup appearance by FC Bayern against Eintracht Frankfurt * (live ticker for reading) when switching to the ARD studio.
In the further course of the conversation with moderator Matthias Opdenhövel , several curiosities followed, which caused amused but also irritated reactions from the TV viewers.
Quirky interview blunder on the edge of Bayern against Eintracht Frankfurt
Curiosity 1: The interview started when Opdenhövel (in the presence of expert Thomas Broich *) spoke to the CEO of Bayern Munich about the lost cup final 2018 against Eintracht.
The FCB official's answer: "I think we also made a contribution that we lost." Rummenigge justified this with the fact that Munich had left the Champions League a week earlier in Madrid and at the final in Berlin then "no longer played with great motivation". Reason? The triple * was no longer possible at this time.
Sporadic users on the net got on the palm because Bayern's board boss gave them the impression of a supposedly bad loser:
Mimimi .. we only lost 2 years ago because we flew out of the CL the week before .. mimimi # rummenigge # FCBSGE
- Georg Kraft (@ groeg92) June 10, 2020Rummenigge didn't really have the defeat in the cup final in 2018, the semi-final defeat in the Champions League.
Madness, how can you be such a bad loser - disgusting! #FCBSGE
However, it should be mentioned: In the end, Rummenigge had the cup defeat against the SBU 2018 from the sentence: "In the end, they deservedly won."
That was not the case with curiosities in the ARD interview before the duel between Munich and Frankfurt * was kicked off.
Bayern Munich: Karl-Heinz Rummenigge as President of the Reds?
Curiosity 2: Who is actually the president of the most successful German football club? Well, as a noble fan of Borussia Mönchengladbach, you don't necessarily have to know that, as a well-known sports journalist in Germany, you probably have to. Most fans probably know that Uli Hoeneß is no longer at the top of the club at FCB .
ARD man Opdenhövel apparently too - and twice attested to his interlocutor Rummenigge the position "President of FC Bayern". During the half-time break, the sports journalist apologized: "He had run into trouble" to call Rummenigge President. That is of course Herbert Hainer, best regards ”.
It is clear that the bizarre double -decker did not remain hidden from avid Twitter users - along with the corresponding statements:
"We welcome the President of FCB, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge" Competent reporting, lick me fat @ard #fcbsge @dfbpokal # opdenhövel
- Marco1999 (@eillbiebaeck) June 10, 2020Sorry @sportschau but what do you smoke?
I was already shocked when #Broich saw no disadvantage in playing #Perisic instead of #Gnabry.
When @MOpdenhoevel called 2x (!!) #Rummenigge "President" in the interview, I switched to #sky. #fcbsge
In addition, it should be mentioned that Herbert Hainer has held the role of club manager at the German record champions since late 2019 .
And: In the further course of the TV broadcast ( voting: Who was the best FCB player? *), Opdenhövel finally apologized to him for his faux pas.
FC Bayern: That's what Karl-Heinz Rummenigge thinks about a salary cap
Something that many soccer fans around the world are longing for is a return of financially out of control profit to a more reasonable economy. A key to this could be an upper salary limit in the top leagues, similar to North America.
Karl-Heinz Rummenigge recently surprised with statements about a so-called "salary cap":
