The Munich football clubs have just swapped roles: FC Bayern is pretty badly affected by the three defeats in a row, while the Lions are still unbeaten in 2024. And the fans? Frolic and hope.
Benjamin had to see everything. He was in Leverkusen, 0:3. He flew all the way to Rome, 0-1. He came back from Bochum late at night, 2:3. The day after FC Bayern’s third defeat in a row, he is standing on the sidewalk in Giesing, it is just getting dark, the Augustiner bottle in his hand is almost empty. But Benjamin smiles again. A little strained and tormented perhaps, but things are slowly getting better.
