Lohtar Matthäus accuses Oliver Kahn of lying.

The Bayern boss assesses the situation surrounding the Nagelsmann dismissal differently and contradicts the allegations.

Update from April 2, 10:30 a.m .:

Oliver Kahn spoke again in a live interview after the battle of words with Lothar Matthäus.

One day after FC Bayern's 4-2 win against Dortmund, the CEO commented on the allegations by Matthäus, who had accused him of lying about Nagelsmann's dismissal.

“I don't know what Lothar sees, hears or feels there.

After his career, Lothar rose to become the chief plaintiff in German football, on all channels," said Kahn on

Bild TV

.

It's okay that you don't wear kid gloves and that things get violent at times.

“But you should not cross certain limits.

To this day I don't know exactly what he means by that (criticism of "Mia san mia", editor's note).

It's only when you then criticize the chief critic yourself that I always have the feeling that he can't handle it at all and then lets himself be carried away to such unfounded and styleless statements.

He, who accuses us, and thus also FC Bayern, of having acted without style.

But that's Lothar."

Oliver Kahn rejects Matthew's accusation of lying

"I know that Oliver Kahn is lying," Matthäus said on

t-online

.

The reason was the exact process of separating from coach Julian Nagelsmann.

“We always told the truth, and Lothar's claims don't change that.

There was this leak, we regretted that and didn't want it.

It would have been awkward on the phone if Lothar had done that... that would have been awkward," Kahn continued.

“There was no contact and no contact attempt by Bayern.

Julian Nagelsmann's management called Hasan Salihamidzic even after the various rumors from the media," said Nagelsmann's management.

Kahn no longer wanted to comment on this claim and instead looked ahead.

Kahn and Matthäus bicker in a live interview: "It has become different, Oliver"

First report from April 1st:

Munich – It got emotional for a moment!

Before the cracker game between FC Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, FCB boss Oliver Kahn and Sky expert Lothar Matthäus fought live on TV.

What was happening?

First, Kahn explained the procedure for separating from Julian Nagelsmann.

He then turned directly to Matthew.

The background: The record national player wrote in his kicker column: "The Mia-san-Mia feeling is gone, warmth, warmth and togetherness are missing, the atmosphere in the club is different.

I know that many at the club think like that.”

Kahn, who had played with Matthäus for a long time, did not like this statement at all!

Kahn and Matthäus with a legendary exchange of blows: the live interview on Sky in full

Kahn:

“Where did the 'Mia san mia' go?

I would ask you, Lothar: What do you mean by 'Mia san mia'?

If you keep accusing us: There is no more 'mia san mia'.

I always ask myself: what exactly do you mean?

You just put it somewhere in the landscape and then everyone can choose what it means.”

Matthew:

"Oliver, I'm not fighting a private war here.

You can call me anytime."

Kahn:

"Lothar, I just asked you one question."

Matthäus: "

Listen: I also know a lot of people at FC Bayern.

You sit at a table with them, I know people that you may not even know at FC Bayern.”

Kahn:

"But those aren't arguments: 'I know people.'"

Matthew:

May I finish?

I also talk to them.

I didn't say it got worse either.

It's different, Oliver."

Kahn in the direction of Matthäus: "Perhaps one or the other suffers from a transfiguration of memory"

Kahn:

"I don't know if things have changed, Lothar.

OK, pay attention.

Perhaps one or the other suffers a bit from memory transfiguration or memory distortion.

Well, even when we were playing, you can probably still remember: there were always decisions that weren't easy.

There have always been consistent choices and decisions - and that's the important thing - that have to be made for the success of this club and that's not always popular.

We justified it very, very well.

(...) But always this insinuation that we are not maintaining the FC Bayern style here.

I would be very, very careful there.”

Matthäus:

"I've now noticed that you've been distracted again because Sebastian

(Hellmann, Sky moderator, editor's note)

asked you a question that you didn't answer.

You're going into a sideshow.

That's why I asked you now..." (Kahn interrupts him)

Kahn:

"What question was it?"

Fans about an interview before the classic: "I was briefly worried that Kahn would hit Matthäus"

Finally, Hellmann intervened and asked again whether it would not have been better to inform Nagelsmann of the dismissal over the phone.

Kahn explains the procedure again, Sky expert Julia Simic then asks specific questions about Thomas Tuchel to cool down the scenery a bit.

The exchange of blows was also a big topic online.

The fans wrote: "I was worried for a moment that Kahn would punch Matthäus.

Would he like to, you could see it”, “Embarrassing of Kahn, how can he apparently go into the interview unprepared.

Every question is predictable, then it is better to admit mistakes in dealing with Nagelsmann than to lash out verbally without an argument.

He confirms exactly what Lothar criticizes" or "Kahn vs. Matthäus has something of RTL in the middle of life".
