Something unbelievable happened in the Lower Bavarian district of Regen last Saturday: TSV Böbrach won a game.
Now it sometimes happens that a football club achieves a victory – but above all versus bobrach. Rattenberg, for example, with 19:0. Or Haselbach with 27:0. Rumannsfelden also won, but only 8-0. With 313 goals conceded last season, TSV Böbrach is the worst amateur football team in Bavaria (the SZ reported in detail). Word has gotten as far away as Saxony, which is why FSV Lokomotive Dresden II thought it would be a good idea to travel to the distant Bayerwald for a friendly. They lost that game 3-1. The people of Böbrach celebrated the sensation with a wheat shower.
Perhaps the people of Dresden came to Bavaria because of the good beer. Or, because they wanted to learn something from the Böbracher spirit, from these players who keep coming up and voluntarily have their amateur butts spanked.
When it comes to sport, which you lazily watch from the sidelines, people like to babble about idols. From the identification figures that inspire viewers to always give their best and get the most out of themselves. The best thing about winning is the dream of it. And the most consistent dream of winning is with the losers. Who but Toni Kroos was really happy that Real Madrid won the Champions League for the umpteenth time? Even.

But there is also a little concern mixed in with the rapture of joy that one wants to experience with TSV Böbrach. After all, the enthusiasm for sport does not only live on emotions, but also on extremes. If you can’t be Real Madrid, who are annoying anyway, then at least at the bottom.
Dramaturgically, the win against Dresden wasn’t a bad trick at first. Keeping the flame of hope burning, that everything could be completely different if we just try hard enough, this hope is not for nothing the guarantee that you have not given life the finger and moved permanently to the next lake . Now the people of Böbrach should turn off the winning road as soon as possible – in the direction of reality. Imagine that TSV Böbrach regularly wins now and then. He would just be any Bavarian A-class club.
