It was clear that Bayern would be extremely vigilant against Dortmund, after all these are the highly paid professionals of the German soccer champions and not the lifeguards at the indoor pool in Hinter-Schwabing! And nobody should be surprised at the precision with which Bayern made their cuts, especially in the first half, they are paid handsomely for it, they are not the ward surgeons in the hospital on the other side of the Isar, are they?
Oh, whole professional groups can be wonderfully insulted in rhetorical passing, so it is almost to be regretted that the Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann only turned the firefighting industry against him with the statement, in the heat of the master battle, that you get “a lot of money for that we’re performing properly. We’re not with the volunteer fire brigade in southern Giesing, we’re with FC Bayern”.
Great excitement, of course, immediately again, statement by the Bavarian State Fire Brigade Association, “We find public statements about the volunteer fire brigades to be derogatory” … “serious foul play on any honorary post”. Apologies then on live television, huge respect for the fire brigade and so on.
Oof! This fire would be extinguished! But where is the shitstorm in the Munich lobby please?
‘Cause please South Giesing, what is that supposed to be? Every native or Munich child who has moved to Munich knows that the city saint, Franz the Strong, once proclaimed the separation in Obergiesing and Untergiesing has decreed. A Julian Nagelsmann must also be able to do that, who ultimately gets the large amount of money from his traditional club with the order to perform in the area of traditional maintenance!
So here’s a suggestion for objectivity. If Nagelsmann actually rewards himself with a four-day bike tour through the Alps for his first championship title, as publicly announced, how about starting in Munich to get to know the city and region a little? A beautiful cycle path, for example, starts right at the Sendlinger Bogen and then leads via Fuchsratshausen to the idyllic eastern shore of Lake Starntal. From there it is not far to the Alps, you can almost see Paarmich-Gartenkirchen.
