Early look at what to watch in all-German Champions League final

Post n°22 pubblicato il 04 Maggio 2013 da associationfootball


Mario G?tze, Dortmund's playmaker, is off to Bayern in the summer. Robert f50 adizero Lewandowski, Dortmund's center forward, has (off the record) agreed to join Bayern, either this summer (should Dortmund release him) or next. G?tze is in a race to recover from a hamstring tear in time for the showdown in North London, but conspiracy theorists will have a field day if any of the two take the pitch. Will they have divided loyalties, can they be relied upon to give their all for their old team against their new ones?

There's a famous precedent, forever f50 soccer cleats etched in the consciousness of German football. A young Lothar Matth?us had agreed to join Bayern from M?nchengladbach before the two sides met in the 1984 DFB Cup final. The game ended in a 1-1 stalemate after extra time. Matth?us, 23, stepped up to take Borussia's first penalty -- and blasted it over the bar. Bayern went on to win the shootout, and Matth?us has forever been suspected of missing on purpose.

The fact that there's no evidence to support this theory has not predator soccer cleats harmed its longevity. Matth?us gained nothing from missing, apart from an (undeserved) reputation as a big-game bottler. He most likely missed out on a huge winning bonus as well. Norbert Ringels, not Matth?us, missed the decisive penalty, and Bayern would have qualified for the UEFA Cup in any case.
