In the spring of 1862, volunteer soldiers in the Union army's 304th Regiment have become restless and bored with training and are anxious to see their first battle. As his comrades boast, The Youth, Henry Fleming, is troubled and unsure of his courage. He discusses courage with his tentmates, The Tall Soldier, Jim Conklin, and The Loud Soldier, Tom Wilson, but finds no solace. On guard duty that night, Henry hears the voice of a Confederate soldier from across the river. The friendly voice warns him to stay out of the moonlight and take care not to get a "little red badge" pinned on him. The next day, Tom goes through camp spreading a rumor he has heard that the regiment will be moving up river for a battle. Henry feels isolated from the other soldiers as they march toward the battlefield. When the men take positions in a trench at the edge of an open field, Tom rushes to Henry and asks him to give some letters to his parents if this is his first and last battle. In the first w

The opening title cards reads: "Stephen Crane's Great Novel of the Civil War The Red Badge of Courage." The end credits differ from the opening cast credits, which are listed as follows: Audie Murphy, Bill Mauldin, Douglas Dick, Royal Dano, Arthur Hunnicutt and Tim Durant. The end credits, which are in a different order and include added cast names, are presented with moving images of the principle cast, with their names and roles superimposed. The actor billed onscreen as Robert Easton Burke was more commonly known as Robert Easton. This was the only feature film in which he was used the name Burke. Prior to the start of the action, a picture of author Stephen Crane, with his name printed below, is shown. After the photograph appears, the following words are spoken by the narrator, actor James Whitmore: "The Red Badge of Courage was written by Stephen Crane in 1894. From the moment it was published, it was accepted by critics and public alike, as a classic story of war,..." Whitmore provides intermittent narration throughout the film. The text of the narration was taken directly from Crane's novel, as was much of the film's dialogue. When the film ends, the book's final page is shown and Whitmore recites the penultimate line of the novel, "tranquil skies, fresh meadows, cool brooks--an existence of soft and eternal peace--". Crane's novel, which was serialized in the Philadelphia Press (3 Dec--8 Dec 1894), was his second, and was written when the author was twenty-four years old. As noted in the film's narration, it was highly praised by contemporary critics. Its reputation as one of the greatest American novels has continued and it is often cited as the first modern war novel. The released film is close to the novel in style and content. Some critics have speculated that the novel's central battle is based on Chancellorsville (1863), but no specific battle is named, either in the book or the film. News items, feature articles, reviews and press releases reveal the following information about the production: On 29 Aug 1947, a news item in LAT reported that Michael Kraike and Monte Brice were going to produce a film adaptation of Crane's novel, with a script by Robert D. Andrews , but that production apparently did not advance beyond initial planning. Audie Murphy, who portrayed "The Youth," the central character of the story, was the most decorated soldier of World War II prior to becoming an actor. Although Murphy had appeared in several earlier films, The Red Badge of Courage was his most important film to date, and considered by some modern critics to have been his best. Some contemporary reviewers pointed out the irony of the famous war hero portraying a young man grappling with worries of personal courage. Murphy received good notices for the film, including the Time magazine review, which praised his "boyishly eloquent" performance. Although some modern sources indicate that Montgomery Cliff was considered for the film's lead, in his autobiography, director John Huston indicated that Murphy was his only serious candidate, partially because of a rapport that existed between the two men, who both had been greatly affected by their own experiences during the war. Bill Mauldin, "The Loud Soldier," was a Pulitzer Prize-winning World War II cartoonist for the U.S. Army magazine Stars and Stripes. Mauldin, who had made his motion picture debut in M-G-M's Teresa, released a few weeks prior to The Red Badge of Courage, provided cartoon sketches of the production to accompany a feature article on the film in Life. Portions of the film, which had no interior scenes, were shot in Chico, CA. Additional location shooting took place in Southern California on Huston's Calabasas ranch and on an adjacent ranch that belonged to director Clarence Brown. Various news items recounted that the production was utilizing a new technique called "leapfrog" directing. According to reports, the method required director Andrew Marton to set up a scene until Huston was ready to take over. As soon as Huston began direction of one scene, Marton would then immediately go on to set up the next. Although the process was intended to reduce a proposed eighty-day shoot to forty, thus saving money, the production ultimately ran about $50,000 over its proposed $1,500,000 budget. Writer Lillian Ross wrote a series of four lengthy articles on the film's production. Ross, who became a lifelong friend of Huston's, wrote what was considered to be the most significant production history of any film to that time. Her articles, which appeared in The New Yorker from 24 May to 14 Jun 1952, were published in book form later in 1952, and was reprinted in book form with a foreword by Huston's daughter Anjelica in 1993. Much of the information that has been included in modern sources about the production was based on the essays written by Ross. In her articles, which included extensive interviews with the filmmakers, Ross offers a detailed history of the troubled production: After producer Gottfried Reinhardt proposed a screen adaptation of Crane's novel to Huston, they were given enthusiastic support by M-G-M production chief Dore Schary. At the same time, M-G-M studio head Louis B. Mayer opposed the project, feeling that it was not an interesting story and would not be successful. In Huston's autobiography, and in documentaries on his career, he stated that he offered to drop the project when Mayer voiced strong reservations, but Mayer told him to "fight for it" if he really wanted to make it. Throughout the pre-production and filming of The Red Badge of Courage, relations between Mayer and Schary, which had been strained since Schary assumed his position at the studio in 1948, became increasingly hostile. Ultimately, Nicholas Schenck, chairman of M-G-M's parent company, Loew's Inc., sided with Schary, and Mayer was forced to resign from the studio in Jun 1951. Both Huston and Reinhardt, as reported by Ross and in Huston's autobiography, wanted to maintain the lyricism of Crane's book and stay as close as possible to the original text. According to modern sources, Huston had originally wanted author Norman Mailer to write the screenplay. Huston and Albert Band, credited onscreen with "Adaptation," but acknowledged in several contemporary sources as Huston's production assistant, both wanted the film to emulate the look of actual photographs taken by Civil War photographer Mathew Brady. In modern interviews, Band has claimed that both he and Huston wrote versions of the screenplay but that Huston preferred, and used, most of what Band had written. The completed film ran more than 130 minutes and received numerous highly negative response cards from audiences members at previews held in Feb 1951. Huston stated in his autobiography and elsewhere that the audiences started leaving one hour after the picture began. As recounted in Ross's articles, Schary, Reinhardt and Huston were shocked by the reaction. Prior to the public previews, a private screening of the film was held and the filmmakers had been told by industry friends that the film was excellent. Huston was quoted in the Ross articles as saying that director William Wyler, who was usually highly critical, told Huston that the picture was "wonderful," and one of the greatest pictures he had ever seen. Shortly after the public preview, Huston left to begin pre-production in Europe on his next film, The African Queen, and left final editing of The Red Badge of Courage to Reinhardt and Schary. Although Schary initially maintained that the film did not need significant changes, eventually, with the assistance of veteran M-G-M film editor Margaret Booth, Schary cut the picture to 69 minutes by removing several sequences, including the death of "The Tattered Man." In addition to removing considerable footage, Schary decided to add the narration that was spoken by Whitmore and to use an actual copy of the book as a framing device in the opening and ending credits. Although the film had some excellent notices, it did not do well at the box office. When Ross's articles ran in The New Yorker, the studio hoped to capitalize on them by re-releasing the film in spring 1952, but it still failed to garner the public's attention. According to a 23 Sep 1952 news item in HR, the film became the basis of a motion picture analysis course at New York University, for which Huston himself was a guest lecturer. Many modern sources have called the film one of Huston's best and Huston himself stated that it was his personal favorite among his own films. A television adaptation of Crane's novel was made in 1974, starring Richard Thomas. Less In the spring of 1862, volunteer soldiers in the Union army's 304th Regiment have become restless and bored with training and are anxious to see their first battle. As his comrades boast, The Youth, Henry Fleming, is troubled and unsure of his courage. He discusses courage with his tentmates, The Tall Soldier, Jim Conklin, and The Loud Soldier, Tom Wilson, but finds no solace. On guard duty that night, Henry hears the voice of a Confederate soldier from across the river. The friendly voice warns him to stay out of the moonlight and take care not to get a "little red badge" pinned on him. The next day, Tom goes through camp spreading a rumor he has heard that the regiment will be moving up river for a battle. Henry feels isolated from the other soldiers as they march toward the battlefield. When the men take positions in a trench at the edge of an open field, Tom rushes to Henry and asks him to give some letters to his parents if this is his first and last battle. In the first wave of the attack, few of the Union soldiers are wounded or killed before the Confederates retreat. During a brief ceasefire, the soldiers discuss their fears and the experience of seeing a man killed. Henry now feels that he has passed the test of courage and is a fine fellow of high ideals. When the Confederate soldiers begin a new charge, the fighting is more fierce, causing many Union soldiers to run away, including Henry. A few minutes later, in the woods, Henry overhears Union Cavalry officers proclaim victory. Now feeling that he has betrayed his comrades, Henry looks upon the wounded and wishes that he, too, had a red badge of courage. Henry is able to slip into the ranks without notice and shamefully says nothing when The Tattered Man asks him where he was shot. Among the marching soldiers is Jim, who is badly wounded and dazed. Jim begs Henry to move him out of the road if he falls, and as he stumbles, Henry and The Tattered Man grab his arm. Jim breaks free and runs up a hill, then falls dead as Henry and The Tattered Man catch up to him. A short time later, Henry is caught in the middle of some running soldiers and is knocked on the head by the butt of a rifle. The Cheerful Soldier finds Henry on the ground that night, helps him up and returns him to his regiment. At camp, Tom, who is happy to see Henry, thinks that he has been wounded. Henry says that his head wound was from a bullet, then asks if the Lieutenant has said anything about him being gone. Tom tells Henry that many of the soldiers were separated from their units during the battle and have been wandering into camp all night. The next morning the men walk toward the battlefield and Henry brags of his courage the previous day. When the battle starts, Henry suddenly jumps from his trench and advances against the enemy. The Lieutenant calls him back, then compliments Henry as the bravest of all. During a respite, Tom and Henry go for water for the men and overhear the officers say that the 304th will be sent to charge the enemy. When Henry and Tom report the news, the soldiers are elated at their importance. The men procede slowly at first, but as the pace quickens, Henry yells to his comrades to come along and leads the charge. When the standard bearer is killed, Henry grabs the flag and continues to lead the charge toward the Confederates. Upon seeing the Confederate flag, Henry chases after the standard bearer and when he falls, Henry grabs the Confederate flag as well. After the successful charge, the Union soldiers talk with their defeated counterparts, many of whom wish that they had died in the battle. Later, Thompson, one of the soldiers in Henry's unit, relates that the colonel was greatly impressed by the bravery of the man carrying the flag. As his comrades praise him, Henry, still ashamed of his earlier cowardice, quietly goes off from the group. When Tom joins him, Henry confesses having run from battle the previous day, and Tom reveals that he, too, had "skeedaddled," but the Lieutenant had caught him and made him stay. Now relieved, Henry and Tom join ranks with the others. Although they hear that the victory will be credited to a general other than their own, the men shrug off the news and talk about being home in time for spring planting. Less

In Honor & Memory of McCanna Anthony “Mac” Sinise 1990 - 2024 On February 27, 2017, our son Mac joined the team at Gary Sinise Foundation as our Assistant Manager of Education & Outreach. I was thrilled and excited to have him come on board to help me with the mission. His job duties included handling and digitizing our Gary Sinise Foundation archive and managing our Education & Outreach Center, which included hosting events, giving tours, stewarding donors, and outreach with the military service members, veterans, first responders and families who were recipients of our support. With his engaging and upbeat personality, he inspired folks through our Gary Sinise: A Call-to-Action exhibit in the Education & Outreach Center, and he assisted in everyday activities, and local and national events also. As a father, having him as part of the Foundation was a gift. He was a great representative who cared about the mission and those we serve, and I was eager to watch him grow with the organization. I was always happy to have him join me on the road, and I could see how much joy and pride he shared in our mission. Especially when he could be hands-on with those we serve, like at our Soaring Valor events honoring our nation's WWII heroes, and our Invincible Spirit Festivals, where we bring the Lt. Dan Band to uplift our wounded at military hospitals across the country. Mac had been playing drums since he was nine years old and was an exceptional drummer. He would substitute for my drummer, Danny Gottlieb, when Danny was unavailable to play our Lt. Dan Band shows. Those were some great times, father and son rockin' out together for the troops. The summer of 2018 was a particularly challenging time for our family. In June of that year, my wife Moira was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer, and after surgery to remove lymph nodes, she began chemotherapy and radiation. Then, on August 8th, we found out that Mac was diagnosed with a very rare cancer called Chordoma. What was happening? What is Chordoma? I had never heard of this. And two cancer patients, mother and son, within two months of each other? A real punch in the gut. I went online to see what I could find. Chordoma is a one in a million cancer. Originating in the spine, Chordoma affects, on average, only 300 people in the U.S. per year. In 70% of the cases the initial tumor can be removed, and it is cured. But in 30% of the cases, perhaps about 90 people per year, the cancer returns. Thankfully, after months of treatment, Moira went into remission and has been cancer-free ever since. With Mac, after surgery to remove the initial tumor in September of 2018, and another spine procedure in February 2019 to clear what looked like an infection, unfortunately a follow up scan in May of 2019 would show that his Chordoma had come back and was spreading. This began a long battle that disabled him more and more as time went on. The cancer fight was getting harder, but throughout most of 2019 he was still able to come to the GSF office, until a third spine surgery in November of that year. While in recovery at home, he was still eager to contribute to the Foundation and he was excited to launch our Gary Sinise Foundation podcast. He was just getting started, completing two interviews, the first with our Gary Sinise Foundation video producer Kip Perry, and the second with yours truly. In January of 2020, the day before he went in for his 4th spine surgery, Mac and I sat down together for his GSF podcast interview with me. This would finish his work with Gary Sinise Foundation. That year, he knew he had to step away to fight his battle. He would have to focus full-time on recovery and rehab, as there would be a fifth spine surgery in June, along with radiation and continuing chemotherapy. With Chordoma being such a rare form of cancer, there are very few medical centers doing research. During our long and challenging fight, we were blessed to have the support of the Chordoma Foundation. They are the only organization whose sole mission, 24/7, is to find a cure for this rare orphan cancer and beat Chordoma. In 2021, we created this “Team Mac” page so that friends and family asking how they could help support Mac could do so through encouraging messages, and by helping to raise funds for much-needed research to find treatments for Chordoma. Mac was a graduate of the USC Thornton School of Music. While in school, he continued his drumming and studied songwriting and composition. Now, due to his disability, as he could no longer play drums or piano, he had assumed that music was a thing of the past. But in early 2023, he started thinking about working on a piece of music called “Arctic Circles” that he had written in college but never finished. He asked me if I thought our pal Dan Myers, violinist and singer for my Lt. Dan Band, would help him work on it. I suggested he contact Dan. He did, and they started texting ideas back and forth, Mac working on the piece from his hospital bed at home or in his wheelchair. The cancer had paralyzed him from the chest down, but he still had limited use of his right arm, and fingers on his left hand. Being right-handed, he would strap a stylus to his right hand, and he could punch letters and notes into his phone or iPad. He also had a small keyboard he laid on his hospital bed table that he used to work on his music. In April of 2023, Dan recommended reaching out to our longtime friend and fellow bandmate, pianist Ben Lewis. Mac sent a chart of “Arctic Circles” to Ben, and they went back and forth shaping Mac's vision for the piece, with Ben recording piano versions of the composition and sending them to Mac for notes. Mac's name for “Arctic Circles” was inspired by the wintery nature shows he loved watching while lying in his hospital bed. He had recently reconnected with an old friend from college, composer and arranger Oliver Schnee. In June, Mac sent Oliver a scratch piano track of “Arctic Circles” that Ben had recorded. Oliver loved it. Mac asked if he would help him finish it and they went to work. With notes going back and forth and a lot of fine tuning, Oliver finished a stunningly beautiful arrangement. Mac picked a date to record when he knew his sister Sophie was going to be in town. The session was scheduled for July 17, 2023, at the very famous Sunset Sound in Los Angeles. He financed the session with his own money, and Oliver and his father, legendary recording engineer and producer Bill Schnee, hired the contractor who pulled together some of the top studio musicians in Los Angeles. Bill lent his services on the mixing board. (Thank you, Bill). With music so deep in his heart, unable to play drums now, Mac's mother Moira suggested he get a harmonica, which he did, and he started teaching himself how to play. I have a dear friend, Medal of Honor recipient Sammy L. Davis, who plays harmonica and tells a story of learning to play “Shenandoah” while in the jungles of Vietnam. I gave Mac a video of Sammy playing it, suggesting that Mac learn it. He did, and it was beautiful. Listening to him playing it, I suggested that he ask Oliver to do a string arrangement to back him up. As long as they would have the strings at the session for “Arctic Circles,” why not do “Shenandoah” also? Both these pieces of music began a collaboration that expanded to a vision Mac had of doing an entire album of music entitled Resurrection & Revival, with a theme of bringing something that was old or unfinished back to life. Mac had three more originals and with more notes going back and forth between Oliver and Mac as they crafted the arrangements, they were now ready to go back into the studio. Two more sessions were scheduled for November 5th and 10th of 2023, this time in Nashville, to record the original pieces that Mac had written, and a group of songs that were special to him, featuring him on harmonica with members of the Lt. Dan Band. During our November 10th session at the legendary Blackbird Studio, Mac celebrated his 33rd birthday. He especially wanted to share it with my band. It was a very special day for him, and he asked me to play bass on one of the tunes, a cover of the old American folk song “Red River Valley,” with him playing harmonica. It is a song his mother used to sing to him and his sisters when they were little. That day was indeed a special day for the two of us. The week the album went to press, Mac lost his battle with cancer. He died on January 5, 2024 at 3:25pm, and was laid to rest on January 23rd. Like any family experiencing such a loss, we are heartbroken and have been managing as best we can. As parents, it is so difficult losing a child. My heart goes out to all who have suffered a similar loss, and to anyone who has lost a loved one. We've all experienced it in some way. Over the years I have met so many families of our fallen heroes. It's heartbreaking, and it's just damn hard. Our family's cancer fight lasted for 5 ½ years, and it became more and more challenging as time went on. While our hearts ache at missing him, we are comforted in knowing that Mac is no longer struggling, and inspired and moved by how he managed it. He fought an uphill battle against a cancer that has no cure, but he never quit trying. Mac loved movies, and we always told him he reminded us of the soldier at the end of the extraordinary film 1917, running through the battlefield, bombs going off all around him, knocking him down one after the other, yet he keeps getting back up, refusing to quit and keeps running forward. I am so blessed, fortunate, and proud to be his dad. I had not spoken publicly about Mac's challenging fight until this recent interview with Raymond Arroyo, done live on December 29, 2023. But in the interview, while I mention his health challenges, leaving out the details, you will see the focus is on Mac and his inspirational music, all put together during those final months of his life, as he was always focusing on what he could do, and never on what he couldn't. Mac was living out a dream, bringing it to reality with his collaborating partner, Oliver. It was incredibly motivating and therapeutic for him, and he was so excited to see it all come together. I did this interview live in a satellite truck they had sent to the house. While I was sitting in the truck doing the interview in the driveway, Mac and Moira were inside the house watching. When I was finished, I walked into the house and Mac was just beaming. Smiling ear to ear, so happy to see his music being featured on national television. His music videos can be seen in their entirety on Mac Sinise YouTube. Included with the video of “Arctic Circles” is a special text message from Mac that I found on his phone after his death. He intended to post it as he was so happy to share this piece of music with you all. The album, Mac Sinise: Resurrection and Revival, is now available. To order the album, click here. On December 30, the day after I did the interview with Raymond, we had to take Mac to the emergency room for what would be his final trip to the hospital. He was having trouble getting his breath and after stabilizing him, he was admitted. I stayed with him as I had done many times before. During the first few days, I thought this would be another trip where we get things under control and head home. He was showing the interview to hospital staff on his phone and was so happy when they would go to his YouTube Channel to see the music videos. He was smiling and filled with joy when he would hear them sharing how moved they were by the music. But the days got tougher, and on January 5th, with the family all around him, he let go. His battle with Chordoma was over and he was at peace. Our story is not unique. No one escapes cancer. It affects us all, as every one of us in this life knows someone, personally or otherwise, who has faced this awful disease. And that summer of 2018, being hit with two different cancers at the same time, was not easy. But over the years, through my mission to support our troops and families, I have met the most extraordinary people who have persevered and overcome the most difficult heartbreaking circumstances, and I have learned from them and been inspired by them. Knowing them gave me strength. Perhaps it was God's way of preparing me to meet our own difficult fight, having met and watched so many courageous families confronting what life had thrown at them. In sharing our story, we hope to shine a little bit of light on what has been a difficult time for us as Mac was truly a light for all of us. An incredible inspiration to those who knew and loved him, he faced his battle with grace, courage, and love. Even with one setback after another, he never stopped living and learning, creating, and giving, and loving. He loved all our family. His wonderful sisters, Sophie and Ella and their children, and while I worked hard to manage the day-to-day medical care, his beautiful mother Moira was his constant companion. He loved her so. His grandmother, his aunts and uncles, his cousins, his brothers in law, his caregivers Lulu and Mimi. There are so many friends he loved and who loved him. And Mac loved working at the Foundation, and he loved and appreciated his colleagues there, as they have continued the mission each day, helping to carry the load so I could focus on these family challenges. Our family is grateful for all those who have helped us, loved us, and supported us in this fight. Mac was a man who loved his Catholic faith, and there is no doubt that his strong faith sustained him through the awful 5 ½ year battle with this crippling Chordoma cancer. “You have made us for yourself oh Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in you.” Mac's favorite quote from St. Augustine. He gave his family and friends so much during his 33 years, and he accomplished great things in those final months. With a glorious teaming of two old pals from college, his vision for this beautiful music was realized. Mac's inspiring parting gift to us. Thank you, Mac. You did it. Resurrection & Revival will live on. And so will you. In our hearts forever. We were blessed to have you in our lives as son, brother, and friend...and we will miss you and love you for eternity.

Before there was The Killer Angels or Gone With the Wind, the most popular novel of the Civil War was Red Badge of Courage. Many people my age read it as pre-teens. It was often cast as what we would now call Young Adult Fiction. Being so widely read by the young, the book’s literary merits sometimes get overlooked. Adam Gopnik has a good piece in The New Yorker today on its author Stephen Crane and a new bio by Paul Auster. The article has a particular focus on Red Badge. Here are some excerpts from Gopnik:: It’s the story of a teen-age boy, of his immersion and panic in battle, during the Civil War, and of his achievement of the “red badge”—a wound, though thankfully not a fatal one. “Red Badge” is one of the great American acts of originality; and if Auster is right that it has largely vanished from the high-school curriculum, its exile is hard to explain, given that it crosses no pieties, offends no taboos, and steps on no obviously inflamed corn. It is relentlessly apolitical, in a way that, as many critics have remarked, removes the reasons for the war from the war. It’s a work of sheer pointillist sensuality and violence: no causes, no purposes, no justifications—just a stream of consciousness of fear and, in the end, deliverance through a kind of courage that is indistinguishable from insanity. But that’s what gives it credibility as a work of human imagination: teen-age boys set down in a universe of limitless boredom suddenly interrupted by hideous violence and omnipresent death would not, in truth, think of the cause but of their own survival, seeking only the implicit approval of their fellow-soldiers. “Red Badge” is not about war; it is about battle. Soldiers fight and die so they don’t let down the other men who are in the line with them. One of the miracles of American fiction is that Crane somehow imagined all this, and then faithfully reported his imagination as though it had happened. What’s astonishing is not simply that he could imagine battle but that he could so keenly imagine the details of exhaustion, tedium, and routines entirely unknown to him: The men had begun to count the miles upon their fingers, and they grew tired. “Sore feet an’ damned short rations, that’s all,” said the loud soldier. There was perspiration and grumblings. After a time they began to shed their knapsacks. Some tossed them unconcernedly down; others hid them carefully, asserting their plans to return for them at some convenient time. Men extricated themselves from thick shirts. Presently few carried anything but their necessary clothing, blankets, haversacks, canteens, and arms and ammunition. “You can now eat and shoot,” said the tall soldier to the youth. “That’s all you want to do.” There was a sudden change from the ponderous infantry of theory to the light and speedy infantry of practice. The regiment, relieved of a burden, received a new impetus. But there was much loss of valuable knapsacks, and, on the whole, very good shirts. . . . Presently the army again sat down to think. The odor of the peaceful pines was in the men’s nostrils. The sound of monotonous axe blows rang through the forest, and the insects, nodding upon their perches, crooned like old women. It was Crane, more than any other novelist, who invented the American stoical sound. Edmund Wilson, in “Patriotic Gore” (1962), saw this new tone, with its impassive gestures and tight-lipped, laconic ambiguities, as a broader effect of the Civil War on American literature. The only answer to the nihilism of war is a neutrality of diction, with rage vibrating just underneath. Hemingway wrote of the Great War, in “A Farewell to Arms,” almost in homage to what Crane had written of the Civil War. How did Crane conjure it all? Auster dutifully pulls out the memoirs and historical sources that Crane had likely read. But the novel really seems to have been a case of a first-class imagination going to work on what had become all-pervasive material. The Civil War and its warriors were everywhere; when Crane went to Cuba to cover the Spanish-American War, in 1898, many of the leaders of the American troops were Civil War officers, including some Confederates. Auster is often sharp-eyed and revealing about the details of Crane’s writing, as when he points out how much Crane’s tone of serene omniscience depends on the passive construction of his sentences. But when he implies that Crane is original because he summons up interior experience in the guise of exterior experience—makes a psychology by inspecting a perceptual field—he is a little wide of the mark. This is, after all, simply a description of what good writing does: Homer and Virgil writing on war were doing it, too. (We are inside Odysseus’ head, then out on the Trojan plain. We visit motive, then get blood.) What makes Crane remarkable is not that he rendered things felt as things seen but that he could report with such meticulous attention on things that were felt and seen only in his imagination. Again and again in his novel, the writing has the eerie, hyperintense credibility of remembered trauma—not just of something known but of something that, in its mundane horror, the narrator finds impossible to forget: The men dropped here and there like bundles. The captain of the youth’s company had been killed in an early part of the action. His body lay stretched out in the position of a tired man resting, but upon his face there was an astonished and sorrowful look, as if he thought some friend had done him an ill turn. The babbling man was grazed by a shot that made the blood stream widely down his face. He clapped both hands to his head. “Oh!” he said, and ran. Another grunted suddenly as if he had been struck by a club in the stomach. He sat down and gazed ruefully. In his eyes there was mute, indefinite reproach. Farther up the line, a man, standing behind a tree, had had his knee joint splintered by a ball. Immediately he had dropped his rifle and gripped the tree with both arms. And there he remained, clinging desperately and crying for assistance that he might withdraw his hold upon the tree. The wounded man clinging desperately to the tree has the awkward, anti-dramatic quality of something known. “Red Badge” has this post-traumatic intensity throughout, but so do later stories, just as fictive, like “The Blue Hotel” and the unforgettable “The Five White Mice,” about a night of gambling in Mexico that almost turns to murder, where the sudden possibility of death hangs in the air, and on the page, in a way that isn’t just vivid but tangible. The ability not simply to imagine but to animate imagination is as rare a gift as the composer’s gift of melody, and, like that gift, it shows up early or it doesn’t show up at all.

War made him a man. The Red Badge of Courage’s protagonist, Henry Fleming, is a boy, who, like novelist and war correspondent Stephen Crane himself, dreamed of war. Crane grew up listening to and reading Civil War veterans’ reminiscences, but for Crane they lacked human feelings. He lamented, “these fellows don’t tell how they felt in those scraps! They spout eternally of what they did but they are emotionless as rocks!” Crane’s argument encapsulates the tectonic shift that occurred within Gilded Age America: emotional emphasis and its control over self, rather than contrariwise. This psychological turn toward the subject (ergo, the subjective), muted absolute truths grounded upon traditional understanding. Contemporary reviews on both sides of the Atlantic lauded Crane’s “new” insight into war and the human condition. Although Crane did not intend it, after the Second World War, subjective analysis (e.g., deconstructionism) solidified with most critics arguing that irony saturates The Red Badge of Courage and the novel contains endless interpretation. Crane disagrees. In January 1896, Crane wrote “my chieftest [sic] desire was to write plainly and unmistakably, so that all men (and some women) might read and understand. That to my mind is good writing.” The following year, he added, “I intended it to be, a psychological portrayal of fear…I have never been in a battle, but I believe that I got my sense of the rage of conflict on the football field, or else fighting is a hereditary instinct, and I wrote intuitively; for the Cranes were a family of fighters in the old days, and in the Revolution every member did his duty.” Crane defined himself as a realist. He wanted Fleming’s experience to show that war ennobled him. Indeed, the novel chronicles Fleming’s war experience with a focus on the 1863 battle of Chancellorsville. His first encounter with battle abrades his naiveté and pride as he flees for fear of death. But war transforms him. Later Fleming overcomes death, and fights with vigor, having “rid himself of the red sickness of battle,” with his soul at peace. At the novel’s conclusion Fleming “felt a quiet manhood, non-assertive but of sturdy and strong blood. He knew that he would no more quail before his guides wherever they should point. He had been to touch the great death, and found that, after all, it was but the great death. He was a man.” And “Scars faded as flowers.” Intent on solidifying Fleming’s journey, in 1896 Crane published The Red Badge of Courage’s coda: “The Veteran.” An older, wiser Henry Fleming observes that his initial cowardice was soldiers’ minority response, and later, his life’s final action proves his courage. Fleming rescues animals from a burning barn that he alone enters numerous times, whilst other men fumble with water buckets remaining outside the inferno. With two young colts still trapped in the barn, Fleming once again braves the blaze but the roof collapses, killing him. As the pyre rises, Crane concludes, “perhaps the unutterable midnights of the universe will have no power to daunt the color of this soul.” Chancellorsville forged Fleming. The opening narration of director John Huston’s 1951 film version provides us a taut summation: “Stephen Crane wrote this book when he was a boy of twenty-two. Its publication made him a man. His story is of a boy who, frightened went into a battle and came out of it a man with courage.” Reader’s Guide

The German football player Sebastian Walter Kehl is a defensive midfielder who plays for Borussia Dortmund. Since 2008 he has worn captain’s armband of the Black Yellows. Sebastian was born in a German city Fulda, the state of Hesse. Kehl began climbing the football Olympus, entering the Lahrbach (Tann) youth system. At the age of 14 the future footballer became a trainee of Borussia Fulda academy, from where he moved to his first professional club Hannover 96 when 18 years old. Sebastian played 32 games and scored two goals for the Reds and then in 2000 transferred to SC Freiburg. The midfielder joined Borussia Dortmund in the middle of the 2001/02 season, at the same time rejecting an offer from Bayern Munich. He missed the first half of the 2006/07season due to a knee surgery in the summer of 2006, appearing on the pitch only on the 4 February 2007. Kehl has played 213 matches and netted 19 goals for the club until now. As a Borussia player, Sebastian has won the Bundesliga three times, and at the end of the 2011/12 he won his first DFB Cup. (The footballer spent all 90 minutes on the pitch and Borussia won Bayern 5-2). Sebastian played his first match for the national team against Slovakia on 29 May 2001. The game took place in Bremen and Kehl substituted Marko Rehmer during the halftime helping his team to win 2-0. Being part of the Bundesteam, he participated in two World Cups: in 2002 his team finished as the runner-up and in 2006 they won the bronze medal. In 2004 Kehl took part in the UEFA European Football Championship that was held in Portugal, but the Germans didn’t manage to get into the play-offs. The footballer became famous on the Internet due to a hyper-ludicrous incident that took place on 29 January 2005. Borussia Dortmund was playing a home match against Borussia Mönchengladbach, when in the middle of the game the opposing midfielder Peer Kluge, challenging for the ball with Sebastian Kehl, grabbed his shorts and pulled them accidentally to reveal Sebastian’s genitals.

Sebastian Walter Kehl (German pronunciation: [zeˈbasti̯a(ː)n ˈkeːl];[2][3] born 13 February 1980) is a German former professional footballer who played as a defensive midfielder. He is currently the Sporting Director of Borussia Dortmund. Quick Facts Personal information, Full name ... Close He amassed Bundesliga totals of 314 games and 24 goals over the course of 15 seasons, representing in the competition SC Freiburg and Borussia Dortmund. He won six major titles with the latter club, including three national championships. A Germany international for five years, Kehl appeared for the nation in two World Cups – finishing second in the 2002 edition – and Euro 2004. Following his retirement, Kehl first worked as the "Head of First Team Football" for Borussia Dortmund before it was announced that he would be taking over as Sporting Director, following the retirement of Michael Zorc. Born in Fulda, Hesse, Kehl joined Hannover 96's youth system in 1996 at the age of 15, going on to appear in two 2. Bundesliga seasons with the first team.[4] In the 2000 summer he signed for SC Freiburg in the Bundesliga, making his debut in the competition on 12 August by playing the full 90 minutes in a 4–0 home win against VfB Stuttgart, and scoring his first goal on 12 December of that year to help to a 2–1 away success over VfL Wolfsburg. Under manager Volker Finke, Kehl featured mostly as a sweeper, helping the Black Forest club qualify to the 2001–02 UEFA Cup in his first season, before the club suffered relegation in his second season. He was no longer part of the squad, however, as he had left in the 2002 January transfer window to Borussia Dortmund, who went on to win the championship with 15 games and one goal from the player. Previously, in summer 2001, he controversially agreed basic terms with FC Bayern Munich, and even accepted an advanced payment of 1.5 million Deutsche Mark, which was returned in November as Bayern threatened to take legal action.[5] During his tenure with Dortmund, Kehl was more often than not a starter. He contributed with 12 matches in the 2002–03 UEFA Champions League to help his team reach the second group phase, and amassed 61 league appearances from 2004 to 2006 in back-to-back seventh-place finishes. On the first day of the 2006–07 campaign, Kehl injured his left knee in a challenge with Bayern's Hasan Salihamidžić, sidelining him for several months and only recovering fully at the start of 2008–09, when he was made captain by new coach Jürgen Klopp.[6] He eventually relapsed on his condition,[7][8] also losing his importance in the starting XI after the emergence of Sven Bender and Nuri Şahin.[9] On 27 July 2013, Kehl played the second half of the DFL-Supercup against Bayern Munich, replacing Bender in an eventual 4–2 win.[10] In September, he was put out of action for another lengthy period after injuring his ankle in training.[11] Kehl began hinting at retirement in March 2014, shortly after having agreed to a one-year extension to his contract.[12] The 35-year-old confirmed it at the end of the 2014–15 season,[13] after having taken part in 21 games to help Dortmund come from behind in the table and qualify to the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League.[14] In April 2018, Borussia Dortmund announced that Kehl would become its players licence department director starting on 1 June.[15] In June 2021, Borussia Dortmund announced that Kehl would be the successor to sporting director Michael Zorc following his retirement in the summer of 2022.[16]

Is this the end? Do we sound the alarms? Run for the emergency exit? Have Real Madrid finally had their wings cut off as they chase Jude Bellingham through the airwaves like a determined bumblebee? Or is Jude actually the bumblebee in his yellow and black kit? What do all of these signs mean? What do we do? Well, the Dortmund sporting director has asked for calm, so maybe that’s a good option. Sebastian Kehl has poured cold water on everyone’s melting faces as the pressure heats up in Madrid despite the wintery temperatures the city is experiencing. In an interview with Kicker, he spoke of how well the English midfielder is doing and how he is fully focussed on succeeding in Germany. Dortmund Sporting Director’s comments on Jude Bellingham “Jude has made an incredible development here”, said Kehl to Kicker, “with his way of playing football, his combativeness and commitment, he identifies a lot with Borussia Dortmund. Currently there is no pressure on the situation. Jude wants to concentrate fully on his football here, and there are no offers.” Do we need pandemonium from these comments? Probably not. Bellingham has a contract with the club until 2025, but news has come out repeatedly that Real Madrid would like to sign him and have made the midfielder their number one target for the summer, in case you haven’t heard. It was reported earlier in the month that Bellingham was going to sit down with Borussia Dortmund to discuss his future and that a potential transfer to the current European champions could command around €100m - plus a series of add-ons that could take his total price tag to around €140m. Dortmund signed the player for €25m in 2020, when he was still just 16. The German club tried to renew the player’s contract but failed in doing so; a renewal would have meant a buy-out clause of €150 million, which was added in response to interest from teams such as Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City, as well as Real Madrid. The Spanish club are yet to hold conversations with Dortmund, as Kehl said, but the signs are good from the player who is reportedly keen to join. But, whatever happens, let’s watch from a safe distance, all nice and calm.

Borussia Dortmund “will try everything” to keep Manchester United loanee Jadon Sancho beyond the end of the season, sporting director Sebastian Kehl said Sunday. Sancho, who has a contract until 2026, returned to Dortmund on a six-month loan in January. He made his name at Dortmund before a big money move to the Premier League in 2021. The England international has had a difficult time at United and had only played three matches off the bench after falling out with manager Erik ten Hag earlier in the season. After a slow start, Sancho has impressed in recent weeks and was outstanding in Dortmund’s 1-0 Champions League semi-final first leg win over Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday. Speaking with German news outlet Welt, Kehl said Sancho had “found his smile again here”. “(United) will have seen how well he’s playing. Maybe they have their own ideas or want to sell him for a profit. “Maybe he will also return to Manchester. These things could all happen in the future.” United paid a reported 85 million euro ($91.5 million) to sign Sancho from Dortmund in 2021 but the German club has said they would not be able to afford a similar fee. Dortmund play at Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday and can qualify for the Champions League final with a win or a draw.

Football news - Sebastian Kehl: Borussia Dortmund are not planning to sell Erling Haaland ByAlexander Netherton Updated 03/04/2021 at 16:56 GMT Borussia Dortmund director Sebastian Kehl said on Saturday that his side are not making plans to sell their 20-year-old Norwegian striker Erling Haaland this summer. The forward is wanted by Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester City and potentially other clubs ahead of the summer transfer window, with a release clause kicking in next summer. Erling Haaland - Borussia Dortmund Image credit: Getty Images Borussia Dortmund director Sebastian Kehl has said that the team are not planning to sell Erling Haaland this summer. Haaland has been linked with a move away in the summer with agent Mino Raiola and father Alfie-Inge Haaland pictured in Spain as they reportedly held talks with Barcelona and Real Madrid, and they are expected to visit Manchester for talks with one or both of Manchester City and United. Chelsea are also said to be in the hunt for the 20-year-old Norwegian international, who has a release clause of 75 million euros that kicks in during the summer of 2022. Transfers Man City target £68m Eze, PSG in talks to sign Man Utd's Sancho – Paper Round 23/07/2024 at 07:58 That has led to speculation that the German side would sell him at the end of the current season to secure a higher transfer fee, with winger Jadon Sancho to then be sold the following year, as they struggle to cope with the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on their finances. Speaking to Sky in Germany, Kehl said: "Our position and the contractual situation are clear: We are planning with Erling, we need him to achieve our goals. We have made that clear." There is a chance that Kehl is merely stating that the club are not willing to sell as part of a plan to maximise the fee they can extract from any deal that will be done, but they did stick to their word when United were linked to Sancho last summer. One potential complication could be that Dortmund finish outside the Champions League places, meaning Haaland has to be sacrificed to raise funds, and that could be exacerbated if Germany continues to struggle with the coronavirus pandemic which may further hamper ticket sales for Bundesliga clubs.

Once a promising prospect at a club known for developing diamonds of footballers, Giovanni Reyna's time with Borussia Dortmund is up -- for right now, anyway. The 21-year-old United States international joined Nottingham Forest on loan for the remainder of the season, the Premier League club announced on Wednesday. There's no option to make the move permanent, and in fact, Dortmund have extended Reyna's contract through the end of the 2025-26 season in the process, so there's every chance he could return to the Westfalenstadion. But there's no doubting that his past six months in Germany have been underwhelming, and a change in scenery might be just the tonic Reyna needs to jump-start his career. How did this move came to pass in the final days of the January window? And what does it mean for Reyna, Forest and Dortmund? Additional reporting by Julien Laurens - Stream on ESPN+: LaLiga, Bundesliga, more (U.S.) How, and why, Reyna ended up at Nottingham Forest Heading into the January transfer window amid the uncertainty of which clubs would lead the race for Reyna, there was one constant thread: Reyna wanted and needed to leave Dortmund for first-team football. Agent Jorge Mendes and father Claudio Reyna -- the ex-USMNT captain and Premier League midfielder -- took the lead in these discussions and looked at multiple options for Gio including, according to sources: Marseille, AS Monaco and Lyon in France; Real Sociedad, Sevilla and Villarreal in Spain; as well as Portugal's Benfica and then Wolverhampton Wanderers and Nottingham Forest in the Premier League. Of those, Forest, Marseille and Sevilla were the most eager. Heading into the final days of the window, there was also interest from Italy's Fiorentina, but it ended up either Marseille or Forest as the places Reyna would go. Marseille were in a strong position: Reyna could learn from the demanding Gennaro Gattuso and the French league suited his game, but Reyna had his heart set on a move to the Premier League. His father Claudio watched Forest's matches to see how Gio would fit in, while Mendes' good relationship with the club also helped. (He is also the agent for Forest manager Nuno Espirito Santo.) The lack of a language barrier also contributed to the decision, and late on Jan. 31, Forest announced the loan agreement move through to the end of the 2023-24 season. At the same time as they confirmed the move, Dortmund announced they had extended Reyna's contract through to 2026. They emphasised there wasn't an option to make the move permanent, but also that it was Reyna's wish to move on loan and try to get some more minutes, with Forest his chosen destination. "We are happy that we have been able to extend the contract with Gio for a further year," said Borussia Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl. "He is a player who has enormous skill and in whom we still see a lot of potential." It won't be an easy ride for Reyna at his new club. Nottingham Forest have a lot to juggle: they are 16th in the Premier League and Nuno has been there eight matches after being parachuted in to help stave off relegation. Then there are the potential sanctions hovering above their heads, with the Premier League charging the club -- alongside Everton -- for breaching the Profit and Sustainability rules (PSR). It's hardly a soft landing, but Reyna is committed and feels this is where he can get some much-needed game time. How and where will Reyna fit into Forest's team? His versatility across the forward line will be a huge asset to Forest, but as Dortmund boss Edin Terzic said last month, Reyna wants to be regarded long term as a No. 10 or No. 8 option, which could be a problem if Nuno sticks with the current 4-2-3-1 formation. Forest's typical front three (Chris Wood, Anthony Elanga, Nicolás Domínguez) are largely interchangeable, but getting the starting No. 10 spot at Forest will be tricky. It's a position held down by the club's record signing and outstanding player Morgan Gibbs-White, who captained the team against Arsenal last time out in the Premier League. Gibbs-White has featured in every league match this term except their 3-2 defeat to Brentford on Jan. 20, which he missed through an abdominal injury. If they stick with this 4-2-3-1, then Reyna will likely start on the flanks. A switch in formation could work in Reyna's favour. Forest have had a host of players on international duty at the Africa Cup of Nations -- Ibrahim Sangaré (Ivory Coast), Willy Boly (Ivory Coast), Ola Aina (Nigeria), Sèrge Aurier (Ivory Coast), Cheikhou Kouyaté (Senegal) and Moussa Niakhaté (Senegal) -- while the impressive Elanga has been out injured. Once they return, it could see Nuno switch to formations he favoured during his Wolves tenure, where he preferred the 3-4-3, which switched to a 4-5-1, or the 3-4-2-1. Both could see Reyna deployed as one of a pair of No. 10s alongside Gibbs-White, the two working in tandem running off and with striker Taiwo Awoniyi. If Nuno opts for a midfield three, then Reyna could be their new No. 8. His versatility is king here, but the hope is he'll get his time in his preferred No. 10 spot. If Reyna's loan spell goes well, it could turn into a permanent move, but this is where things could get tricky. With no option in the deal, Reyna's prospects of a long-term stay at Forest are already somewhat out of his hands. Failing to survive the drop would mean a summer of overhaul in order to reduce their wage bill. Even if they stay in the Premier League, and given their dalliances with PSR this season, signing Reyna to a full-time deal will not be cheap. Equally, Dortmund are under no pressure to move on from the player given they have that extra year's buffer with his contract. If Reyna impresses, it's a win-win for all involved. Dortmund would have a player back in form, and with Marco Reus's contract expiring in Germany in the summer, the U.S. international could yet be their next long-term No. 10. If he's kept on the periphery, Reyna would be on the market, and aged just 21, he'd be viewed as a safe investment, with clubs knowing they could recruit a player whose value could skyrocket in coming years. Reyna's debut could come as soon as Sunday at AFC Bournemouth. He'll wear the No. 20 shirt, and judging by the message he sent to the Forest fans upon signing, he already feels at home in the Premier League. "I'm ready to work hard, I'm really for the challenge and I can't wait to attack the Premier League with this amazing club. I'm Gio Reyna, and I'm a Red." -- Tom Hamilton The Dortmund view: They're not giving up on U.S. star Late last year, Reyna, father Claudio, his new agency Gestifute and Dortmund's sporting director Kehl met to discuss the 21-year-old American's once-bright future at Borussia Dortmund. Not long before that meeting, Reyna had departed American agency Wasserman to join the Jorge Mendes-led Gestifute, believing that new representation was needed to bolster his options on the market. After a disappointing spell in early 2023-24, Reyna wanted Dortmund's opinion of him and his immediate future. Terzic wasn't happy with Reyna's defensive work rate; the manager expected his attacking midfielders to track back and aggressively block passing lanes in order to improve Dortmund's questionable defensive stability. What also hurt Reyna's standing in the team was that in their mind, he was showing limited improvement. All the while, Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, an emerging 19-year-old English talent, took the spotlight with his one-on-one skills and entertaining style of play on the wing. Kehl assured Reyna that Dortmund wouldn't prevent him from going elsewhere for more game time, while at the same time working to bring Jadon Sancho back from Manchester United for a six-month loan spell. Sources have confirmed that Reyna was then offered to Premier League clubs, but interest in England was initially lacking. As Dortmund toyed with the idea of parting ways with Reyna -- either through a permanent transfer or a loan with an obligation to make the deal permanent -- they made a pivotal decision. Rather than severing ties, ending a chapter that commenced in 2019 when the teenage prodigy made the transatlantic leap from the New York City FC academy to the Bundesliga powerhouse at the age of 16, BVB opted for an alternate course of action: extending Reyna's contract until 2026 and orchestrating a loan arrangement with Nottingham Forest. This January transfer is not a farewell from Dortmund. The club seemingly refuse to relinquish the hope that Reyna could blossom into the next American soccer star and develop substantial value in the years to come. It's a vision reminiscent of Christian Pulisic, whose talents garnered a €64 million transfer to Chelsea in January 2019. Even though Terzic was to an extent dissatisfied with Reyna's performances last term and early on this season, he praised Reyna's showing in Dortmund's 3-1 win over VfL Bochum last Saturday. "You could see that Gio is capable of influencing the game from the bench," Terzic said after bringing him on for Youssoufa Moukoko after 66 minutes. "He was very confident on the ball, managed to create a few dangerous situations, but was a bit unlucky with his finishing in one or two situations."

BERLIN (AP) - Germany's Torsten Frings was banned from the World Cup semifinals after a disciplinary committee found he punched Argentina forward Julio Cruz in a post-match fracas in the quarterfinals. FIFA's disciplinary committee announced the ban Monday, the eve of Germany's semifinal match against Italy at Dortmund. "We are disappointed," Germany team manager Oliver Bierhoff said. "Our opinion was that we laid down the reasons for an acquittal." The 29-year-old midfielder was banned for two matches - with one suspended for six months - and fined $4,075. That means Frings can return for either the World Cup final or the third-place playoff, but has a six-month probation period. If he commits any other kind of misconduct, he would have to serve the balance of punishment. Despite handing down a partially suspended ban because it found that Frings had been provoked, the disciplinary committee condemned his reaction as "tantamount to an assault." "The judgment pronounced on Frings was the result of the unequivocal television images showing his assault on Cruz. Neither the (German federation) nor the player could refute the objective evidence at hand," the committee said in a statement. But Bierhoff said Frings had been reacting to provocation. The referee, Lubos Michel, and his assistants were directly next to Frings and had not taken action against the German midfielder. "All we can do now is accept the decision. We will now concentrate on the Italy game and we are optimistic that Frings will return for the final," Bierhoff said. Frings' absence is a major setback for Germany. The midfielder has been one of Germany's best players, creating attacking opportunities and carrying out a lot of the defensive work in tandem with captain Michael Ballack. Frings is likely to be replaced by Sebastian Kehl, a rugged Borussia Dortmund midfielder with similar qualities. Argentina players Maxi Rodriguez and Leandro Cufre were cited after last Friday's match at Berlin and initially all the German players were cleared, but FIFA started an investigation into Frings' involvement after images of the skirmish were broadcast on TV in Germany and Italy. German media reported Monday that the Italian soccer federation gave FIFA the TV footage that sparked the investigation, hoping to have the hardworking midfielder suspended for the semifinal. FIFA and the Italian federation denied the reports. "Let me make it clear, there was no attempt whatever from the Italian federation to incite FIFA into doing something," FIFA communications director Markus Siegler said. "The footage was not presented to us from Italian TV stations, it was shown in Germany." The Italian soccer federation said it contacted its counterpart in Germany to deny the news reports. "We have done nothing, there has been no initiatives on our behalf against Germany," Italian federation chief Antonello Valentini told Sky Italia TV on Monday. "There is no effort on our behalf to create hostility, friction or to denounce anybody; We'll try to win the match on the field. We have no interest that Frings be punished if FIFA doesn't believe he should be." Frings was contacted late Sunday and asked to submit his account of the incident to FIFA's disciplinary committee by Monday morning. It took the committee more than four hours to find him guilty of violent conduct. Footage from the 24 TV cameras at Berlin's Olympic Stadium had to be reviewed because Frings' involvement did not appear on the official match broadcast, Siegler said. The disciplinary panel made the quick decision on Frings, hoping to reduce the impact on Germany's preparations for the semifinals. Cufre and Rodriguez have until Wednesday to present their cases. The disciplinary committee has not given a timeframe for when, if any, punishments are applied. England's Wayne Rooney, who was sent off for violent conduct in the quarterfinal loss to Portugal, has until Thursday to make a statement to the committee regarding his red card.

Central defender Mats Hummels will leave Borussia Dortmund immediately, the Bundesliga club said on Friday, ending a partnership that stretched back to 2008 with a three-year spell at Bayern Munich. Hummels’s departure comes a day after head coach Edin Terzic left the Champions League finalist. “It was a huge honour and joy to have played for Dortmund for that long and to have followed the path almost entirely from 2008, with the club in 13th place at the time in January 2008, to what Borussia Dortmund is today.” The 35-year-old Hummels, who did not make the cut for Germany’s Euro 2024 squad despite a strong season that saw Dortmund reach the Champions League final before losing to Real Madrid, had two spells with the Ruhr valley outfit. He had also played in its 2013 losing Champions League final to Bayern. Hummels initially joined on loan from Bayern Munich in 2008 before signing a permanent deal and staying until 2016 when he switched back to Bayern. After a three-year spell in Munich he returned to Dortmund in 2019.

Amid all the excitement about Mainz’s exhilarating start to the new German season, Borussia Dortmund’s surge into second place in the Bundesliga, winning seven of their first nine matches, including the impressive disposal of fierce local rivals Schalke 04 in the Revierderby, has gone largely unnoticed, even though Jürgen Klopp’s young, athletic team puts on show a similar brand of aggressive, attacking football. These impressive displays provide the most tangible evidence yet that Borussia have largely recovered from their financial difficulties of 2005 when they flirted with bankruptcy. Since then, the club has been languishing in the football doldrums, but has made considerable progress in the last three seasons. From the mid-table obscurity of 13th position in 2008, they improved to 6th place in 2009 and managed to qualify for the UEFA Europa League last season by finishing in a very creditable 5th. Although the club’s 2009 annual report boasted, “BVB is back”, it is still too early to say whether Borussia Dortmund have enough strength in depth to maintain their challenge for the Bundesliga. What we can declare with more confidence is that this team still has a long way to go to emulate the glory days of their legendary counterparts from the golden era of the mid-90s. "Glory Days" During this magical period, Ottmar Hitzfeld’s team won successive Bundesliga titles in 1995 and 1996, with combative midfielder Matthias Sammer being named European Footballer of the Year, before triumphing in the 1997 UEFA Champions League, when two goals from Karl-Heinz Riedle and one from local hero Lars Ricken sealed a 3-1 win against a Juventus side that included Zinedine Zidane and Alessandro Del Piero. In fact, Borussia Dortmund is a club steeped in history, celebrating its centenary last year with a friendly match against Real Madrid. It is one of the most successful, well known and popular German football clubs, having won the Bundesliga six times, the German (DFB) Cup twice and the European Cup Winners’ Cup in 1966 – when they were the first German team to secure a European title, beating Liverpool 2-1 in the final. However, more recently, Borussia’s sights have been set somewhat lower with the club happy to merely qualify for the UEFA Cup in 2008 by the back door, after losing the DFB Final to a Bayern Munich side that had already secured a Champions League spot by winning the German championship. In fairness, this did mark a step forward, given that it was the first time the club had qualified for Europe since 2004. Furthermore, the previous season had seen the club involved in a relegation battle, that provoked two changes in management, when Bert van Marwijk was replaced in the winter break by Jürgen Röber, before a run of six defeats in seven matches resulted in yet another new coach in the shape of former German national, Thomas Doll. "Nuri Sahin - Turkish delight" Terrible times, but since Jürgen Klopp arrived in May 2008, the team has gone from strength to strength, keeping the incoming coach’s promise of showing supporters “full-throttle football with passion.” The club’s philosophy entails building up a very fit team of young, ambitious and talented players, backed up by experienced “pillars”, which allows them to apply an energetic, pressing game that is much appreciated by their huge crowd. The jewel in the crown is the 22-year old Turkish playmaker Nuri Sahin, who first played in the Bundesliga at just 16, but Borussia’s youngsters have also been recognised by the German national team with attacking midfielder Kevin Großkreutz and central defender Mats Hummels making their debuts this year. The club’s focus on youth looks likely to benefit the Nationalmannschaft for years to come, following the emergence of other young stars such as Mario Götze (18 years), Sven Bender (21) and Marcel Schmelzer (22), but Borussia’s roster also includes a very impressive collection from a variety of other nations, including the imposing Serb defender Neven Subotic (21), the exciting Japanese midfielder Shinji Kagawa (21) and the Polish internationals, Robert Lewandowski (22) and Jakub “Kuba” Blaszczykowski (24). The experienced backbone is provided by captain Sebastian Kehl, goalkeeper Roman Weidenfeller and defender Patrick Owomoyela, who have over 600 appearances in Germany’s top division between them. "Shinji Kagawa - turning Japanese" To some extent, Borussia have had to make a virtue out of necessity following the constraints imposed by their economic meltdown a few years ago. The club’s difficulties first became apparent in 2002, when poor financial management resulted in an unmanageable debt load that meant the club had to sell its famous Westfalenstadion to a real estate trust. All the funds raised from their flotation on the German stock exchange two years before (the first and to date only listing of a German football club) had effectively been squandered. Worse was to come in 2005 after the club spent heavily on expensive signings and high wages in the pursuit of further European glory. In a scenario horribly reminiscent of Leeds United’s misguided strategy, Borussia effectively gambled on competing regularly in the Champions League to fund their spending. Although they managed to avoid relegation, the club’s record losses and massive debts put them in a “life-threatening situation.” The approach of trying to buy success was far too ambitious for a club of Borussia’s relatively limited means and its spectacular failure meant that the old regime, which had been in charge for nearly 20 years, had to be replaced. The new chairman, Hans-Joachim Watzke, summed up the reasons for their downfall, “We have problems, because our success was not as we hoped. Perhaps we spent money that we don’t have. We thought that we could be in the Champions League for many years.” The line between success and failure in the world of football is indeed a thin one. "Neven Subotic - in demand" However, football clubs can always count on the “never say die” spirit of their supporters and in their moment of need the BVB fans did not let their club down. Their “We are Borussia” campaign resulted in Dortmund’s community of citizens, companies and public authorities combining to help save the club, so much so that in 2008, the club’s annual report could proudly announce, “Three and a half years after facing the very real threat of insolvency, Borussia Dortmund has regained a solid economic foothold and is so sound that we no longer need to worry about financial problems, not to mention problems that would threaten our continued existence.” Having said that, it is doubtful whether the club could have carried on in 2005 without some very understanding creditors and bank managers, who deferred stadium rent and interest payments until 2007. The club also had to take out yet another loan to help pay the players’ salaries, while they were forced to shore up the balance sheet in 2006 with significant capital increases that reduced liabilities and improved the equity position from €15 million to €61 million. The funds raised enabled the club to achieve a more manageable debt maturity structure and obtain improved interest rate terms. At least they avoided the potential ignominy of accepting help from their rivals Bayern Munich in order to bolster its ailing finances, which looked like a distinct possibility at one stage. The club also rejected a sponsorship offer from Beate Uhse, a chain of sex shops. It’s not clear which would have been the bitterer pill to swallow for BVB fans. "The most beautiful stadium in the world?" Instead, in 2006 the club took out a 15-year loan of €79 million with Morgan Stanley, thereby laying the foundations for the long-term stabilisation of the company. They used €57 million to buy back the remaining 51% of the shares in their stadium from the Molsiris real estate investment fund, thus reducing the high rental expenses and giving them more room to manoeuvre. The remaining €22 million was used to reduce and refinance existing liabilities, which enabled the creditors’ agreement of March 2005 to be annulled in June 2006. The restructuring process was completed two years later, when €50 million of cash received after signing a new 12-year marketing agreement with Sportfive was used to fully repay the Morgan Stanley loan many years ahead of schedule. The club promised that this move would not only further reduce its liabilities, but would free up funds to improve its sporting competitiveness over the next few years. The advancement in league position in the last couple of seasons would indicate that the club has been true to its word. That improvement has also been reflected in the club’s financials. Following the club’s annus horribilis in 2005 with an enormous €55 million loss, the club instigated some drastic cost cutting, slashing the wage bill by €10 million and reducing player amortisation by €13 million over the next two years. Allied with an increase in the Bundesliga TV deal, the sale of David Odonkor to Betis and money distributed after the 2006 World Cup (held in Germany), this produced a remarkable €15 million profit in 2007. In each of the last two years, Borussia Dortmund have reported a loss of about €6 million, though they have just about broken even at the operating level (before interest payments). That’s not too bad in the current economic climate with the club “unable to completely sidestep the fallout from this crisis”, especially in the absence of major European competition to boost revenues. This year’s results were also impacted by lower profits from player sales and would actually have shown an improvement on the prior year if Nelson Valdez’s €4 million summer transfer to newly promoted La Liga side Hercules had taken place a few week earlier. Like all other clubs, Borussia’s results were affected by the World Cup in South Africa, which pushed back most transfer activity to beyond the closing of their accounts at end-June. Having said that, over the years, player trading has not contributed a great deal to Borussia’s profits (never higher than €5 million), even when their finances forced them to offload a number of players. Even though Borussia Dortmund achieved their highest position in the Deloittes Money League in 2009 since 2003, the reality is that their revenue is a long way short of most major European clubs. Their 18th place with revenue of €103 million is the lowest of the five German teams in the Money League, behind Bayern Munich €290 million, Hamburger SV €147 million, Schalke 04 €124 million and Werder Bremen €115 million. In fact, Bayern’s revenue is almost three times that of Borussia, while Real Madrid and Barcelona generate almost four times as much as them. What is immediately apparent is the very low income from match day and television (with no Champions League boost), though the commercial revenue is surprisingly high – more than teams like Arsenal, Lyon, Juventus and Inter. In fact, commercial revenue contributes the highest percentage of total revenue of any of the teams in the Money League at 57% with only fellow German clubs Bayern (55%) and Schalke (49%) coming anywhere near that astonishing figure. Revenue has risen 42% since the dark days of 2005, largely through the advances on the commercial side, which is a big reason for the improvement in the bottom line. However, since breaking through the €100 million barrier for the first time in 2008, there has hardly been any increase, which might suggest that there is a limit to the scope for future revenue growth – unless they qualify for the promised land of the Champions League or take the unpopular step of raising ticket prices. Total income has actually fallen by £9 million since 2008, mainly due to the €7 million decline in other operating income, which was inflated that year by a couple of once-off factors, namely compensation paid to clubs that released international players for the 2008 European Championships and the sale of the swap transaction with Deutsche Bank as part of the repayment of the credit facility with Morgan Stanley. At this stage, I should make clear that I am using the Deloittes definition of revenue in order to facilitate comparisons with other European clubs, so have excluded transfer income (€11.2 million in 2008/09). Adding that to the Money League revenue of €103.5 million gives the €114.7 million revenue reported by Borussia Dortmund. You should also note that the costs (accumulated depreciation) associated with transfers have been deducted from other expenses to give the profit on player sales, e.g. in 2008/09 transfer income of €11.2 million less transfer expenses of €7.2 million produced a profit on player sales of €4.0 million. Some will be a little perplexed about the paradox of Borussia Dortmund enjoying some of the largest crowds in Europe, yet having one of the lowest match day revenues in the Money League with only Roma and Juventus generating less than Borussia’s €22 million in 2009, but the reason is an obvious one: very low ticket prices. This is the antithesis of the English approach, which sees Manchester United and Arsenal earn five to six times as much from this revenue stream, but Bayern’s €61 million is also nearly three times as much as their German colleagues. Last season, Borussia Dortmund’s incredible average attendance of 76,400 was the second highest in Europe, only beaten by Barcelona 78,100, but above Manchester United 74,800. This was easily the largest average in Germany with the next highest teams being Bayern 69,500 and Schalke 61,200. The Borussia fans’ interest shows no sign of slowing down, as the club has just established a new record for season tickets for 2010/11 at a mighty 51,200, beating last season’s previous high of 50,700. Borussia’s high attendances (and low match day revenue) can be partially attributed to the large number of standing places (around 27,000) for which tickets are priced as low as €12. Around 25,000 of these can be found on the famous Südtribüne terrace, known as the “Yellow Wall”, which is the largest standing area in European football and provides each home game with an intensely passionate atmosphere. It is surely no coincidence that the Bundesliga has the lowest ticket prices of Europe’s five major leagues and consequently the highest attendances. The Bundesliga chief executive, Christian Seifert, argues that keeping tickets cheap is part of German clubs’ core value of placing the supporter first, as they know how valuable the fan base is. According to Deloittes, the average price for a Bundesliga match is €19 compared to €51 in the Premier League, which is almost three times as much. That’s a huge difference, especially for younger supporters. "Sebastian Kehl - the leader of the pack" This is an important part of football culture for German fans, who would be extremely resistant to higher ticket prices. Recently, Borussia fans voted with their feet when they boycotted the derby at Schalke, after their rivals demanded a 50% surcharge for this match. The chairman of one of the BVB supporters groups, Marc Quambusch, argued that this was the thin end of the wedge, “If we simply accept higher prices, we’ll end up like the Premier League, where young people are priced out and the crowd is getting older and older.” Jürgen Klopp injected some humour into the situation, when he said, “I think it’s great our people don’t go there to finance (new striker) Klaas-Jan Huntelaar.” For the moment, there are no such problems in Borussia’s imposing stadium, now officially named Signal Iduna Park, which is the largest football ground in Germany with a capacity of 80,700. This is obviously an extremely valuable asset that can also be used to host international matches, when the capacity is reduced to 67,000 by converting the standing areas to seats (which only takes two days). The Times described it as the “most beautiful stadium in the world”, writing, “Every Champions League final should be held in Dortmund. The place was built for football and its fans.” When you look at Borussia’s paltry TV revenue of €22 million in 2009, which is by far the lowest in the Money League, it gives you some idea of the financial challenges they still face. Clearly, this would be much higher if they reached the Champions League (Wolfsburg, for example, received €26 million last season), but in the meantime their broadcasting revenue is almost entirely sourced from the DFL (German Football League). The current deal runs for four years from 2009 to 2013 and is worth €1.65 billion for domestic rights, which works out as €412 million per season. This is slightly higher than the previous three-year contract, which was worth just over €400 million a year, though that did represent a 40% increase on the preceding agreement. The Bundesliga deal is about 40% lower than the €700 million received per season by the Premier League for domestic rights, which is bad enough, but is nothing compared to the disparity on overseas rights, where the Bundesliga only receives €40 million against €550 million for the Premier League. For all its many attractions, it is clear that the Bundesliga has not successfully marketed itself globally. As a result, German clubs receive far less TV money than their English peers, e.g. Bayern earned €70 million in 2008/09, which was considerably less than Manchester United’s €117 million. The DFL TV money is distributed among clubs using a weighted calculation based on the performance over the last four seasons plus a bonus depending on the final position in the current season. However, Borussia’s television revenue has actually decreased over each of the last two seasons from €26 million to €21 million, even though their positions in the Bundesliga has been improving. The €4 million fall in 2009 was due to the team’s elimination in the third round of the DFB Cup, compared to reaching the final the previous season, while the 2010 decline was again due to fewer cup matches. "Happy days are here again" As we highlighted earlier, what really drives Borussia Dortmund’s revenue, like so many German clubs, is their commercial operation, which this year topped €60 million for the first time, comprising €39 million sponsorship, €8 million merchandising, €9 million catering and €5 million rentals. It was just as well for this revenue stream that the club bought back its merchandising trademark in 2006, which had been sold in 2000 as part of its efforts to raise money. The club has implemented a strategy of building trusted long-term relationships with commercial partners, many of whom have recently extended their contracts with the club, including Sportfive, who have signed with the club until 2020, by which time they will have been the club’s marketing partner for 20 years. Similarly, insurance and financial services provider Signal Iduna has extended its stadium naming rights deal, whereby it pays €4 million a year, until 2016. This approach has also been followed by shirt sponsor Evonik, which prolonged its agreement to 2013, paying over €7 million a year. They had been part of an imaginative campaign whereby Borussia played the 2006/07 season with a green and yellow exclamation mark on their shirts, while the RAG energy company came up with the Evonik brand. German clubs have proved very adept at securing valuable shirt sponsorship deals, so much so that a report by sports consultancy StageUp showed that shirt sponsorship revenue in the Bundesliga is actually higher than the Premier League. "Lucas Barrios - sharp shooter" Nike were replaced by Kappa as kit suppliers in 2009/10 in a three-year deal worth €4 million a season, while Sportfive have succeeded in increasing the number of so-called “champion partners”, the list now including Sprehe Feinkost, AWD, Coca Cola, Radeberger and Sparda Bank. Moving on to expenses, Borussia have clearly made efforts to control their costs. Not only have their operating expenses been virtually unchanged over the last three years at around €110 million, but they are still lower than the €117 million spent in 2005. Having said that, other expenses of €45 million seem fairly high, though this does include €17 million for match operations, €11 million advertising, €6 million administration and €5 million materials (primarily merchandising). Where Borussia have been particularly effective is in controlling their wage bill, as evidenced by the wages to turnover ratio, which has never been above 48% since the big spending year of 2005. The club has prioritised a reduction in its payroll, so wages were cut €2 million last season to €48 million, giving a very respectable wages to turnover ratio of 46%. This is not overly surprising, given the Bundesliga’s focus on this ratio, as can be seen by Deloitte’s last review of the major European leagues, which revealed that the average wages to turnover ratio for the Bundesliga was just under 50%, compared to 66% in the Premier League. This is the main reason why the Bundesliga is more profitable (€172 million) than the Premier League (€93 million), even though its revenue (€1.6 billion) is much lower than its English equivalent (€2.4 billion). Even so, Borussia’s wages of €46 million are less than a third of Bayern’s €139 million, though the champions’ revenue is, of course, also around three times higher. To provide an English comparison, Borussia’s wage bill is about the same as Bolton Wanderers, which should place their European aspirations into context. It must be tough to compete against the likes of Real Madrid and Inter Milan when their wage bill is four times as much as yours. The trend in player amortisation, namely the annual cost of writing down the cost of buying new players, also reflects Borussia’s fall and rise. It peaked at €18 million in 2005, but was then greatly reduced to €5 million in 2007, as the club reacted to its financial predicament, but it has steadily risen again, albeit to a much lower level at €9 million, as the club has ventured back into the transfer market, now that the worst of its monetary problems seem to be behind it. Again, this is much lower than other clubs with Bayern’s €33 million being a pertinent comparison. The graph of net transfer spend for the last 12 years beautifully demonstrates this trend and highlights one of the main reason for Borussia getting into debt. In the five years before the fateful 2004/05 season, the club’s net spend was €95 million (gross €128 million), but then they hit the brakes with net surpluses generated over the next three years, followed by very modest net spend in the last four years. Over that seven-year period, Borussia had a net surplus of €5 million – a stark contrast to their extravagant epoch. The club obviously now has an objective of balancing its books, which effectively means that it has to sell before it can buy. In recent years, this has meant the sale of players like Alex Frei, Mladen Petric, Steven Pienaar and Tomas Rosicky. Even now, after all that the club has done to reinforce its financial stability, it still cannot operate with complete freedom in the transfer market. In order to meet financial targets, the club may not pursue certain players if that would incur additional debt. For the same reason, a player may have to be sold, even if the coach wants to keep him on sporting grounds. That might be the case with the highly rated defender, Neven Subotic, next summer. Borussia’s sporting director, Michael Zorc, has been criticised for his track record on player purchases, but he must sometimes feel like he is fighting with one hand tied behind his back. Nevertheless, he has still managed to unearth some gems, such as the brilliant Shinji Kagawa, who was signed for only €350,000 from the J-League, and has already won over the fans by scoring twice against bitter rivals Schalke, and top scorer Lucas Barrios, bought for €4 million from Paraguayan side Colo-Colo, whom Zorc described as “a goal machine, the best striker we have had since Stéphane Chapuisat.” The club also possesses what it describes as “hidden reserves” among the playing staff, following its policy of recruiting young talent with a lot of potential. This means that their value in the transfer market is much higher than that recorded in the books. To further this objective, they have founded the BVB Academy to facilitate the targeted, comprehensive development of players aged between 19 and 23 years old. Given that the club’s financial problems are still fresh in the memory, it is entirely understandable that Borussia exercise a degree of caution. Even though they have managed to reduce their net debt from €150 million in 2006 to €73 million today, mainly due to the repayment of the Morgan Stanley loan, this is still a high figure by Bundesliga standards. The loans have maturity dates between 2020 and 2026 with a weighted average interest rate of 6.6%, but, importantly, the club is not exposed to any interest rate risk thanks to the fixed interest nature of the credit agreements. However, despite making some loan repayments, the net debt has actually been creeping up over the past two years, as the club has increased its use of overdraft facilities up to €10 million. Borussia Dortmund’s financial difficulties do beg the question of whether the Bundesliga’s licencing rules are not quite so effective in practice as we have been led to believe. These regulations include looking at a club’s books each March in order to assess the robustness of their budgetary plans before issuing them a licence to operate the next season. In addition, the “50+1” rule, which dictates that club members must own at least 50% plus one share in order to prevent the club being subject to the whims of an individual owner, theoretically means that clubs should not take on potentially damaging debt levels. Despite these well-intended rules, a number of clubs have still managed to get themselves into deep financial trouble over the years, Borussia being the obvious example, but Schalke’s finances have also caused concern in the past few months. Clearly, no rules can ever be perfect and there will always be exceptional cases, but let’s hope that the Bundesliga has learned some lessons here and tightened up their procedures, including a better early warning system. "Klopp hands - here comes Jürgen" In order for Borussia to avoid returning to such a position, or, more positively, for the club to further improve, it will need to grow its revenue, but is this feasible? Well, there are a few opportunities. The best route would be via success on the pitch, particularly qualification for the Champions League. If the club could achieve that (and keep qualifying year after year), it would be a whole new ball game financially. Fortunately for them, although this is not a walk in the park, it is far from insurmountable and they would have managed it last season if they had won either of their last two matches. The German league is also far more open than others, so it’s not a given that certain teams will always qualify no matter what. As Steve McClaren, Wolfsburg’s new coach enthused, “The beauty of the Bundesliga is any one of ten teams can win the title.” They could also make more use of their magnificent stadium by staging international matches and marketing it for more events on non-game days. In fact, even though commercial revenue is already high, better use of the BVB brand could further improve merchandising sales, especially as Borussia Dortmund is the fourth most popular club amongst Germany’s football followers (according to market research). Finally, although the fans might not appreciate it, there is a lot of unrealised profit that could be crystallised by selling some of the up and coming young players to richer clubs. "And it was all yellow" The current strategy still needs to have an eye on gradually improving the financial structure, an approach that the club has described as “sustainability before speed.” In the period shortly after Borussia Dortmund came so close to extinction, the club revealed its new credo: “sporting success cannot be achieved without exercising good business sense.” Not the most stirring words that you’ll ever hear, but I’m sure that most BVB fans are thankful that the club appears to be in safe hands and they are heading in the right direction. The rest of us should be equally happy that this grand old club survived and seems well on the road to recovery, if only so that we can continue to enjoy the spectacle of the “Yellow Wall” in full voice, which is one of the truly great sights in modern football. Forget Phil Spector, that’s what I call a wall of sound. Despite their victory over Lille last weekend, Olympique Lyonnais’ start to the season has been far from convincing with manager Claude Puel reportedly being given three games to save his job. Coming off the back of two seasons where Lyon finished “only” second and third in Ligue 1, questions have been asked about whether Puel is the right man to take the team forward. Although this would have represented success for almost any other club in France, the end of domestic league dominance must have felt like failure to those supporters whose team won the League an unprecedented seven years in a row from 2002. In fact, Lyon’s rise from relative obscurity to become the leading club in France by some distance is an amazing story. When Jean-Michel Aulas, a local software entrepreneur, bought the club in 1987, they were languishing in the second division, deeply in debt, and, in the new owner’s words, burdened with “no history and a public largely uninterested in football.” Two decades later, their finances have been revived and they are one of only four clubs to have qualified for the Champions League eleven years in a row (the others being Real Madrid, Manchester United and Arsenal), culminating in an appearance in the semi-finals last season for the first time ever. "Jean-Michel Aulas - happy days" This incredible transformation has not been as a result of a wealthy benefactor pumping money into the club (like Chelsea), nor is it down to a lengthy managerial dynasty (like Manchester United or Arsenal), but is the result of an exemplary strategic plan from the chairman and CEO, Monsieur Jean-Michel Aulas, which he kindly explained in the last management report, “In the first phase, from the club's purchase in 1987 until 1998, the priority was on advancing to Ligue 1 and consistent results in league play. In the second phase, beginning in 1999 when Pathé purchased a stake and lasting until 2010, the objective was to keep the club in Ligue 1's top three, and thereby take part in European championships. These objectives have been fully achieved.” The long-term aspect of the plan has been a key element of Lyon’s improvement, as they have grown gradually. In a country famous among other things for the Tour de France, Aulas opted for a cycling analogy, “Each year we set as an objective to have progression. It’s like a cyclist: you can overtake the people just ahead of you,” though he later embraced four wheels, saying that he wants Lyon to become “the ultimate Formula 1 car, capable of shifting through the gears to cope with all types of road.” While Aulas has received his fair share of criticism for running the club as if it were a business, his theme is that there is a virtuous circle in football: over time the more money a club makes, the more matches it will win, and the more matches it wins, the more money it will make. Indeed, Lyon have been profitable for many years, though they suffered a large loss of €36 million in 2010 for the first time since 2004. The deficit would actually have been even higher without an €18 million tax credit, as the club reported a loss before tax of €54 million. This is somewhat of an aberration for Lyon, whose pre-tax profits had averaged an impressive €23 million in the previous four years. Aulas has described the results as a “blip”, pointing to the generic problems facing football clubs in France, but the main reason for the changing fortunes at Lyon is obvious, as the profit made on player sales was tiny in 2010, compared to the customary €40 million or so achieved in the past few years. If this trend had continued, Lyon would once again have reported a profit in their latest accounts. Player trading has played an important role in Lyon’s financial success with transfer fees making up a significant portion of the club’s revenue every year except the last, when the profit from player sales only reached a paltry €3 million, as no big transfer was made in the period. In the previous four years, the sale of players generated enormous proceeds of €220 million, resulting in considerable capital gains of €164 million. "Benzema - good example of Lyon's strategy" This is part of what the club describes as an “innovative business model”, whereby Aulas has excelled at acquiring players and selling them on for exuberant fees to more renowned clubs abroad. The list of his hugely profitable transfers is almost endless, including Mahamadou Diarra and Karim Benzema to Real Madrid, Michael Essien and Florent Malouda to Chelsea, Eric Abidal to Barcelona and Tiago Mendes to Juventus. His skill in negotiating large transfer fees won him the grudging admiration of Sir Alex Ferguson, when the great Scot was asked about Benzema possibly moving to United, “Lyon’s president is a sharp man. He sold Essien for €38 million, Diarra for €26 million, Malouda for €19 million, Abidal for €16 million. And I congratulate him for that.” The profits on such sales have been boosted by an increasing number of the players being sold coming up through Lyon’s training academy. In 2009 over 70% of the sales proceeds came from players trained at the academy, most notably Benzema whose transfer was alone worth €35 million. This has been assisted by the club investing €5 million in state-of-the-art training facilities, which were completed in 2008, with graduates such as Hatem Ben Arfa and Loïc Rémy being other prominent examples of the young talent graduating from the academy. "You're having a Ben Arfa" One of the main objectives given to Claude Puel was to smooth the transition of the young players trained at the academy into the first team and this strategy is starting to pay off with the emergence of the likes of Gonalons, Pied, Grenier and Lacazette. However, there has been a quid pro quo on the player trading, as the club has also decided to increase the stability of the squad compared with the past in order to facilitate the integration of the youth team exports with more experienced players. Nevertheless, Lyon’s ascent has been in large part down to their ability to play the transfer market better than any other club in Europe, which was recognised by Simon Kuper and Stefan Szymanski in their thought-provoking book “Soccernomics”, where they dedicated an entire section to Lyon’s transfer market rules. These are essentially an extension of Aulas’ winning theme that was outlined above, owing more than a little to the “Moneyball” theories of Billy Beane, the legendary general manager of the Oakland Athletics baseball team. The thinking goes like this: If you buy good players for less than they are worth, you will win more games. You will then have more money to buy better players for less than they are worth. The better players will win more matches and that will attract more fans (and thus more money). "A lot on Puel's mind" Lyon’s “magnificent seven” tips and tricks for the transfer market are as follows: 1. Exploit the inefficiencies of the transfer market. This means adopting an unsentimental approach whereby you sell any player if a club offers more than he is worth. As Aulas said, “Every international at Lyon is untransferable – until the offer surpasses by far the amount we had expected.” 2. Transfers should be decided by people who are at the club for the long-term. This means that Lyon’s transfers are decided by a group consisting of Aulas, the technical director, Bernard Lacombe, and whoever happens to be the current coach. As Emmanuel Hembert, head of the London sports practice of management consultants AT Kearney, explained, “A big secret of a successful club is stability. In Lyon, the stability is not with the coach, but with the sports director, Lacombe.” Lyon understand that the coach is only a “temp” better than most, as their seven consecutive titles were gained with four different coaches (Jacques Santini, Paul Le Guen, Gérard Houllier and Alain Perrin), while Lacombe has been at the club for over 20 years. 3. The best time to buy a player is when he is in his early twenties. Aulas explained, “We buy young players with potential who are considered the best in their country, between 20 and 22 years old. “ The theory is that the players are old enough to be nearly fully formed, but too young to be expensive stars. The other added benefit is that relative unknowns accept modest salaries. "Bernard Lacombe - Lyon legend" 4. Try not to buy centre forwards. This is the most over-priced position in the transfer market in marked contrast to goalkeepers, who deliver most “bang for your buck”. In this way, the homegrown Benzema was given his opportunity and thrived on the responsibility, before making bundles for the club. 5. Replace your best players before you sell them. This avoids a panic purchase or a lengthy transitional period. This policy meant that Aulas could happily let Essien to go to Chelsea when they turned up with a wheelbarrow full of cash. 6. Buy Brazilians. Lyon have been very adept at securing footballers from Brazil, with former players including future internationals Edmilson, Juninho and Fred, while the current squad boasts Cris and Michel Bastos. The trick here was to send one of their past captains, Marcelo, to Brazil to act as an exclusive agent. 7. Help your foreign signings settle in. It is difficult to move to another country, but Lyon employ people to help their players relocate, find somewhere to live, learn French, open bank accounts and generally cope with homesickness. This sounds obvious, but many clubs did not provide such services a short while back. Up until recently, this has proved to be extremely lucrative business for Lyon with net receipts of €21 million in the four years up to 2009 as purchases of €199 million were more than compensated by sales of €220 million. In that period, player trading generated an almost unbelievable €164 million profit. This was epitomised in the summer of 2009 when Benzema’s sale was the fourth highest in that window, though it was somewhat overshadowed by the megabucks splashed out on Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic and Kaka. However, everything changed last season, when Lyon suddenly started to act more like Real Madrid by spending €96 million on recruiting six new players (Lisandro Lopez, Michel Bastos, Aly Cissokho, Bafetimbi Gomis, Dejan Lovren and Jimmy Briand), while only recouping €14 million, largely from the transfers of Kader Keita to Galatasaray, Fabio Grosso to Juventus and Anthony Mounier to Nice. This is a huge outlay for a club with an annual turnover of less than €150 million. This trend continued this summer, when only Olympique Marseille came anywhere near to Lyon’s €24 million net spend in France, which included €22 million on the new glamour boy of French football, Yoann Gourcuff. All of a sudden, Aulas has loosened the purse strings and Lyon have become the big spenders. "Lisandro - part of last summer's spending spree" So why change the habits of a lifetime? This seemed to make no sense, especially when the policy had been working so well. Apparently, this is all about making the jump to the next level. The board explained the modified approach in the 2009 management report, “We decided to invest in experienced players in order to close the gap with the major European clubs”, as they saw an opportunity to close the disparity as other clubs were suffering more from the economic recession, given Lyon’s undoubted financial strength. To an extent, this has not been such a bad move, if you consider the progress to last season’s Champions League semi-final, but it’s unlikely to be a permanent change in the long-term strategy, as the most recent management report re-affirmed the club’s commitment to its tried-and-trusted business model, “The trading target for 2010/11 will be to re-establish a significant excess of player registration sales over purchases.” Whether this is as straightforward as it was a few years ago is open to debate, as the unfavourable economic conditions have definitely slowed down the transfer market with this summer’s spending in Europe’s top five leagues nearly 40% less than in the summer of 2009. OK, it is true that this may have been impacted by the World Cup starting at the same time that the transfer window opened, but there is little doubt that clubs have been hit by the financial downturn, so they now think twice about making expensive new acquisitions. Having said that, Lyon’s focus on the transfer market remains laser sharp. This is confirmed by the club’s management report explicitly listing the market value of its players as €208 million (source – Transfermarkt), implying a potential capital gain of €74 million, after the book value is deducted. As this figure does not include an estimate for their younger players, they contend that the total value for the team is more like €220 million, which would suggest a capital gain of €86 million. It is extremely rare that clubs draw attention to this unrealised gain in their accounts, which only underlines the importance of player trading to Lyon’s strategy. This is further highlighted when you look at the revenue from Lyon’s core business, which last year amounted to just €146 million. Not terrible by any means, but a long way behind Europe’s leading clubs, which is where they aspire to be. Lyon are the best placed French club in Deloittes Money League, based on 2008/09 results, which is one place ahead of their rivals Olympique Marseille. However, the top Spanish and English clubs enjoy far higher revenue, while the German and Italian clubs also earn much more. Real Madrid and Barcelona generate almost three times as much revenue, while Manchester United earn more than twice as much and even a relatively unsuccessful team like Hamburg have a turnover higher than Lyon. There’s effectively a €50 million shortfall against the next tier of clubs (around €200 million turnover), which to date Lyon have traditionally made up by astute wheeler dealing in the transfer market. This is abundantly clear when you examine Lyon’s revenue growth over the last five years – or I should say lack of growth. Their revenue has only grown 14% from €128 million in 2006 to last year’s €146 million and almost all of that growth came back in 2007. Although revenue did increase 5% this year, this was only after a steep decline in 2009. Over the same five-year period, expenses have risen by 52% from €133 million to €202 million. That’s a huge financial challenge right there and the only solution to date has been for the club to buy and sell its way out of trouble. The importance of player trading can be seen very well in the above graph. If profit on player sales is considered as “revenue”, its contribution has been notable in the past few years, often double the money received from gate receipts. However, when that well dries up, as it did in 2010, the effect is evident and immediate. However, broadcasting is still the largest revenue source with €78 million contributing over half of Lyon’s revenue. This is not the highest reliance on television money in the Money League, but it’s probably still a little too high for comfort. Revenue from the LFP (Ligue de Football Professionnel) and FFF (Féderation Française de Football) amounts to €49 million, while distributions from UEFA for the Champions League are worth €29 million. Like every other club in Europe, Lyon’s broadcasting revenue is miles behind Real Madrid and Barcelona, whose ability to negotiate individual deals (for the time being at least) gives them astonishing TV revenue around €160 million, but it’s also at least €20 million behind other teams in their peer group. It’s difficult to see this situation changing any time soon (or ever), as it was touch and go whether the current French deal would even be as much as the previous one. In the end, the French TV rights were granted to Canal Plus and Orange under a four-year contract from 2008 to 2102 in a deal worth €668 million per season, which was slightly higher than the old agreement. "Toulalan - younger than he looks" The money is allocated as a mixture of fixed and variable components. The fixed element comprises 50% of the total media rights and is distributed equally among all Ligue 1 clubs, while the remaining 50% is distributed based on performance and media profile. This is fairly complex, so 28% is based on league position (23% for the current season and 5% for performance over the last five seasons); 19% is based on the number of games broadcast (14% for the current season and 5% for performance over the last five seasons); and 3% is intriguingly based on attacking play (“le challenge de l’offensive”). Much of the €10 million increase in TV revenue was down to Lyon’s successful run in the Champions League with UEFA’s distribution growing from €24 million to €29 million. These payments are a combination of performance (how far the team progresses) and a variable share of the TV pool. The latter is partly dependent on the relative importance of the French TV market, but also importantly how many French clubs take part in the Champions League. For example, Lyon estimated that if only two French clubs had qualified for the group stages in 2009 (instead of three), their revenue would have been €4 million higher. Although Aulas has argued that failure to qualify for the Champions League would not be a damaging blow to Lyon’s finances, as they have plenty of money saved for a rainy day, he has also admitted that the club’s annual budget is built on the assumption of a “podium finish” in Ligue 1 and reaching the quarter-finals in the Champions League. Over the last three years, Lyon has earned an average of €27 million a season from Europe’s premier tournament, which could potentially be even higher in the future, as UEFA’s new three-year contract for 2009 to 2012 is up 34%. Given these figures, I would argue that the Champions League is very important to Lyon – about 20% of total revenue, in fact. "Hugo Lloris - brilliant orange" In contrast to television, commercial revenue fell 13% (or €6 million) to €43 million in 2010, the second year in a row that it declined, following a €10 million decrease in 2009 from the high point of €59 million. Again, although this might be pretty good for a French club, it’s still not competitive on the international stage. In fact, revenue from sponsorship and advertising was down sharply this year. This was partly due to the recession afflicting all industries, but in fairness Lyon were also impacted by a couple of exceptional factors specific to them: the repeated postponement of the French online gaming law meant that new sponsor BetClic was not authorised to place advertising on players’ shirts; and the club made a once-off €4 million payment to Umbro as compensation for the early termination of their contract to supply kit. The decrease in commercial revenue in 2009 was similarly influenced by once-off movements, with the previous year being boosted by a €3.5 million signing fee from Sodexo for the catering contract and €1.8 million in prize money from Lyon’s victory at the Peace Cup in South Korea. In addition, the club’s restaurant business was outsourced and its brasserie discontinued, leading to a €1.3 reduction. "Bastos keeps his eye on the ball" However, the club do expect commercial revenue to “rise substantially thanks to new contracts”. Lyon has signed a ten-year agreement with Adidas as their exclusive kit manufacturer, starting from July 2010, with the supplier paying a basic fee plus royalties based on product sales. Merchandising revenue is likely to increase, both in France and especially abroad, on account of Adidas’ extensive distribution network. The contract could generate gross revenue between €80 million and €100 million depending on results on the pitch. As Mangas Gaming has now been awarded a licence to operate in France, the BetClic brand can finally appear on players’ shirts in domestic football. This is a four-year deal worth €5-7 million per annum, which runs from 2009 to 2013 and replaces the long-standing agreement with Accor and Renault Trucks. In September 2007, Lyon signed a contract with Sportfive, valid for ten years from the delivery of the new stadium, whereby Sportfive will have exclusive use of all marketing, hospitality and media rights belonging to the club. In return, Lyon receive a €28 million signing fee upfront, which is paid in four annual installments of €7 million between December 2007 and December 2010. By the way, this is the same company that has put into place a similar funding arrangement for Juventus’ new stadium. Finally, the club has ambitious plans to grow its brand internationally through the establishment of soccer schools outside France in Northern Africa, the Far East, India, the Middle East and the USA. This will help cement the idea of Lyon as a club known for training and developing elite players. Thanks to Lyon’s tremendous performance in the Champions League, match day revenue rose €2 million to €25 million, but this remains one of the lowest in the Money League. In fact, only three teams in the top twenty have lower revenue from this stream: Borussia Dortmund, Roma and Juventus. This is obviously constrained by the smallish capacity of their ground, the Stade de Gerland, which only holds 40,500, though the average attendance is even lower at 35,600, which means a capacity utilisation of 88%. Despite this failure to fill the existing ground, the club has planned a new 60,000 stadium, which is due to be completed in December 2013, as this should provide a significant uplift to their revenue. In the shareholders’ meeting in December 2009, the board specifically drew attention to the impact of the Emirates Stadium on Arsenal’s match day income, which has more than doubled to around €110 million since the move. This is because the Emirates is a more modern and commercially orientated stadium. In the same way, Lyon’s project aims not only to increase ticketing revenue significantly, partly through more corporate boxes, but also to develop ancillary revenue from a leisure centre, hotels, restaurants, offices, a shopping centre, including a dedicated OL store for merchandising, and potentially naming rights. "Here's to future days" The club’s initial estimates of the investment required were between €250 and €300 million, but this has reportedly risen to around €350 million. The presentation to shareholders claims that this will be 100% privately funded via “innovative financing” with very limited impact on the taxpayer, but there are reports that €180 million of public money will be used, presumably to improve transport links. Although there has been some opposition to the new stadium, the project has been boosted by the awarding of the Euro 2016 tournament to France. The proposed stadium is one of the 12 on the short-list and should benefit from a new law that is to be introduced with the aim of enabling France to honour its commitments to UEFA, which will accelerate planning procedures. On the cost side, the wage bill rose by a staggering 17% to €112 million, though this was explained as being primarily due to performance-related bonuses for advancing so far in the Champions League. This is the same issue that has caused Barcelona so many financial problems over the last couple of years. To be fair, French clubs are hampered by what Aulas wryly calls “Europe’s most developed tax system.” Even so, it is clear that the wages have grown too far, evidenced by the wages to turnover ratio of 76%, which is higher than UEFA’s recommended maximum limit of 70%. This ratio has been on a steady upwards trend over the last few years from a respectable 59% in 2006. In the management report, the board explicitly states that it “has set itself the target of significantly reducing the payroll over the next two periods, as other French clubs seem to be doing.” This does not seem to be an idle boast, as they have already offloaded many high-earning players this summer, including former captain Sidney Govou, Mathieu Bodmer, Jean-Alain Boumsong and Frederic Piquionne. These sales might not have brought in much money, but they will go a long way to reducing the wages to a more sustainable level, cutting around €12 million from the annual cost base. The trend in player amortisation, namely the annual cost of writing down the cost of buying new players, also reflects the modified approach to the transfer market. In the three years between 2006 and 2008, it hardly changed at all, rising slightly from €24 million to €26 million. However, in the last two years it has grown to €43 million “as a consequence of the club’s substantial investments,” increasing by €9 million (a chunky 26%) this year alone. This is still much lower than those sides that have spent really big in the transfer market, such as Manchester City €83 million, Barcelona €71 million, Real Madrid €64 million and Chelsea €57 million. Furthermore, if Lyon’s board carries out the plans that it has announced, then it might well have maxed out at this level. It should be clearly stated that in spite of this significant player investment, the club maintains that it still has a “sound financial structure with surplus cash” with the summary report for June 2010 stating that the club has positive net cash of €15 million. Unfortunately, we don’t have any more details behind this, but we know from last year’s annual report that the club had net cash of €62 million in June 2009, so the recent player purchases must have had some effect, as the net cash has dropped by €47 million in the last 12 months. Looking at those 2009 figures, Lyon had very little financial debt at that stage with only €42 million of bank loans, which were more than covered by €104 million of cash. We should note en passant that the club also owed €36 million to other football clubs a year ago, though this was completely offset by €62 million owed to them by other clubs, leaving a net football surplus of €27 million. So, last year’s analysis showed that Lyon had a net surplus of €89 million per UEFA’s definition, which is very impressive. This year’s figures will not have been quite as good as that, but they must still be very healthy indeed. In addition, the club has shareholders’ equity of €131 million, which has given it sufficient robustness to pursue its ambitious growth policy. To put this into context, Lyon’s equity represents 44% of the total equity of French football clubs. Much of this is derived from the club’s successful flotation in 2007 on Euronext Paris, after a change in French law permitted sports clubs to float on the stock exchange, which raised €91 million. Lyon’s board directors own the majority of these shares with Aulas himself having the largest stake (34%) through his holding company ICMI, followed by Pathé and OJEJ (24%), companies controlled by Jérôme Seydoux, and a further 7% held by other board members. However, the percentage of voting rights held is even higher, amounting to around 76%: ICMI 42%, Pathé and OJEJ 29%, other board members 5%. "The only way is up" Even with this stability, the club has plans to further strengthen its financial capacity, maybe to help raise funds for the new stadium. First, the board will subscribe to a €40 million capital increase for one of the group’s subsidiaries, OL SASP, through a partial incorporation of its shareholder loan and, on top of that, the club will issue €25 million in bonds or similar securities that could give deferred access to share capital. The club’s presentation to shareholders concluded that theirs was “an exemplary business model.” Although that might sound a little bombastic, there’s no doubt that the model has proven itself over several years, though it’s fair to say that it has been severely tested by recent events. Having achieved the first two phases of Olympique Lyonnais’ grand plan, Aulas now talks of a “new phase of development” which will use the new stadium project to “pursue our objective of moving the club to a higher plane.” The ultimate objective, written down for all to see, is to “win a European Cup before 2016.” Aulas once said that it is only a matter of time before his team wins the Champions League. If they managed to do that, with all the financial disadvantages they have compared to the traditional leading clubs, then they truly would be the Kings of Lyon. Is it likely? Who knows, but stranger things have happened.

Italian World Cup winner Luca Toni scored both of the two Bayern goals when he took a pass from French international Franck Ribery in the 11th minute and then scored the winning goal 13 minutes into extra time. Between those goals, Croatian international Mladen Petric reaped a dramatic injury time equalizer for Dortmund, who ended the game with just 10 team members after Jakub Blaszczykowski was sent off the field in the second half of extra time due to a second bookable offense. The match saw club captain Oliver Kahn win a record-breaking sixth cup winners' medal, while Toni celebrated his 34th and 35th goals of the season for Bayern. Swooning over the Italian The Italian has won the hearts of Bayern Munich fans anyway -- with eight goals in the last four matches, an impressive 10-day stretch in which he's led his team to the German Cup, the UEFA Cup semi-finals and on the brink of the Bundesliga title. The striker has his own fondness for Berlin, where the match was played. Nearly two years ago, he helped Italy beat France to win the World Cup in the same stadium. After the game at the Olympiastadion Saturday night, Toni lifted the German Cup, and later told German television: "It's incredible here," speaking about the German capital. Bayern Munich fans are likely to say that Toni's dazzling performance was just as incredible. Bayern coach Ottmar Hitzfeld, at any rate, could hardly contain his enthusiasm for Toni. "He's a world-class striker," he told Reuters news agency. "He's got an amazing instinct for goals. He's always believing he can score two or three goals in each match. He's never satisfied and always hungry for more goals. He's a real winner, a leader on our team." With 35 goals in 41 matches in all competitions, Toni has chalked up much of the tally for Bayern of late. He may also be the one to help the team recover from last season's fourth place league finish with a record three titles this season. "It's always good to win titles," Toni said. "We've won the German Cup and now we want to win the Bundesliga championship and then get the triple with the UEFA Cup," he said Saturday. "I really wanted to lift this German Cup. It's my first national cup," he said.

Borussia Dortmund have secured the services of Brazilian full-back Yan Couto from Manchester City on a loan deal extending until 30 June 2025. Should specific performance conditions be met, the agreement includes an option for a permanent transfer. Couto, who debuted for Brazil in October 2023, has played four matches for his national team. Over the past two seasons, he was loaned to Girona in La Liga, contributing 2 goals and 12 assists in 59 games. The 22-year-old flew from Sao Paulo to Zurich on Friday, undergoing a medical examination in Bad Ragaz, Switzerland, where Dortmund is conducting their summer training camp. Couto, who will don the number 2 jersey. "Yan Couto was on our radar even before he won the U17 World Cup with Brazil in 2019," said Lars Ricken, Borussia Dortmund’s Managing Director for Sport. "He has the potential to be a very special player, with outstanding pace, technique, and creativity – he’s the kind of player fans come to watch. He’s very young with a lot still to learn, but we’re confident that he can follow in the footsteps of special Brazilian players like Júlio César, Dedé and Márcio Amoroso at Dortmund." Sebastian Kehl, Borussia Dortmund’s Sporting Director, added: "Yan Couto is a very exciting player. He gets up and down the wing, combining exceptional energy with intensity, technical finesse, and dribbling skills. Yan is versatile, loves 1-v-1s, can hit accurate crosses, and is very attack-minded." "His development in Spain was remarkable, and yet he has lots of potential to go even further, which makes him exactly what we wanted for this position. We’re delighted that we were able to convince him to be part of our journey." Couto himself expressed his excitement: "For me it’s a dream come true. Borussia Dortmund is a special club. Every child in Brazil knows how great this club is, knows the fans, and is fascinated by the Yellow Wall. I can’t wait to wear the BVB shirt for the first time and experience the power and emotions in this brilliant stadium."

Germany 3 Portugal 1 STUTTGART, July 9: Midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger scored two goals and forced the other as World Cup hosts Germany beat Portugal 3-1 to claim third place on Saturday. “I can't describe this in words. It's just fantastic,” said Germany coach Juergen Klinsmann. “And it keeps getting better. It's a very special moment for us. I told the lads to soak all this in. We're going to have a big party and have some great moments.” Schweinsteiger fired home his first goal of the competition from long range in the 56th minute to put Germany ahead. Five minutes later, a Schweinsteiger free kick was deflected into his own net by Portugal midfielder Petit, a halftime substitute. Schweinsteiger added a third with a similar effort to his first in the 78th minute, the ball flying into the top right corner. Substitute Luis Figo created Portugal's consolation, crossing perfectly from the right for Nuno Gomes to head home from close range two minutes from time. Both sides had chances in an evenly balanced first half after Portugal surprisingly left captain Figo out of the starting line-up and Germany made six changes to their team. Germany midfielder Sebastian Kehl saw his shot deflected narrowly wide in the fifth minute and then produced a 25-metre chip which back-pedalling goalkeeper Ricardo did well to tip over. Ricardo also turned away a piledriver shot from Lukas Podolski following a free kick. At the other end, Germany goalkeeper Oliver Kahn, making his first appearance at the World Cup after being relegated to the bench for the serious part of the tournament, denied Pauleta in the 15th minute. Pauleta was sent clean through by Simao Sabrosa's pass but Kahn rushed out of his goal to block the Portugal striker's side-footed effort. Pauleta, who has managed only one goal, also wasted an excellent chance in the 53rd minute when he shot weakly at Kahn with Ronaldo free and screaming for the ball to his left. In the 56th minute, Schweinsteiger broke the deadlock as he skipped past two challenges and scored with a screaming 30-metre shot as the flight of the ball appeared to deceive Ricardo. Five minutes later, Germany won a free kick on the left and another Schweinsteiger rocket was deflected into the net by the hapless Petit. Germany striker Miroslav Klose, the tournament's leading scorer with five goals. was substituted in the 71st minute without adding to his tally. Figo, whose international future is the subject of speculation at the age of 33, came on for Pauleta in the 77th minute. He had barely come on to the pitch when Schweinsteiger struck again to add further fuel to the German party mood which was barely dampened by Gomes's late diving header. Scorers: Germany — Bastian Schweinsteiger 56 78, Petit 61 og; Portugal — Nuno Gomes 88. Halftime: 0-0; Attendance: 52,000. Teams: GERMANY (4-4-2): 12-Oliver Kahn; 16-Philipp Lahm, 21-Christoph Metzelder, 6-Jens Nowotny, 2-Marcell Jansen; 19-Bernd Schneider, 5-Sebastian Kehl, 8-Torsten Frings, 7-Bastian Schweinsteiger (15-Thomas Hitzlsperger 79; 20-Lukas Podolski (9-Mike Hanke 71), 11-Miroslav Klose (10-Oliver Neuville 64). PORTUGAL (4-5-1): 1-Ricardo; 2-Paulo Ferreira, 5-Fernando Meira, 4-Ricardo Costa, 14-Nuno Valente (21-Nuno Gomes 69); 6-Costinho (8-Petit 46), 18-Maniche, 11-Simao Sabrosa, 17-Cristiano Ronaldo, 20-Deco; 9-Pauleta (7-Luis Figo 77).

Frank Augstein/Associated Press Borussia Dortmund advanced to the last four of the 2014-15 DFB-Pokal on Tuesday evening with a 3-2 win over Hoffenheim, joining Wolfsburg as the two sides confirmed to progress following the first half of the quarter-finals. Played in front of a capacity crowd at the Signal Iduna Park, the game was a real nail-biter that remained deadlocked at 2-2 after 90 minutes before BVB pulled ahead for good in the second period of extra time. Sebastian Kehl was the hero for the hosts, as the veteran netted a golazo from distance on the half-volley that put his side through. The defeat will be very bitter for a Hoffenheim side that played their hearts out. In fairness, neither side deserved to lose. Kevin Volland and Roberto Firmino were outstanding for the village side, the former in particular proving to be a constant live wire in attack. His pace in dribbling up the wing was unstoppable at times, and his and Firmino's quickfire goals stunned the home crowd after Neven Subotic had netted the opener for Dortmund earlier in the first half. Yet just as the game appeared to be on its way to a familiar narrative for Dortmund, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang headed home the equalizer on 57 minutes. It took 50 minutes more for the winner to come, but it finally did with Kehl's wonder-goal. The result was a huge one for BVB, who now could be one win away from booking their place in the Europa League next season. The manner in which it came is also significant, with team leaders in Marco Reus and Mats Hummels watching from the stands and keeper Roman Weidenfeller benched. For once, the game wasn't a case of hoping for a bit of magic from Reus. Instead, manager Jurgen Klopp made a few notable swaps, using Sokratis Papastathopoulos and Subotic as his interior defenders ahead of relatively inexperienced goalkeeper Mitch Langerak. The right-footed Erik Durm, who'd often filled in for Marcel Schmelzer at left-back previously, started his first match of 2015 on the right of defense, where he and Jakub Blaszczykowski formed a solid partnership that conjured memories of the Pole operating with compatriot Lukasz Piszczek during BVB's heyday. It was by no means a pretty win for Dortmund, who, despite showing some positive signs, also underlined just how much they remain outsiders for the Pokal. By the time that the rest of the last four are decided, Klopp's side may be the least convincing one left. Despite scoring himself, Subotic made a big mistake to allow Firmino's goal. And Volland's score came from a set piece on which he was left under no pressure whatsoever before volleying home. The fact that Dortmund so easily saw their advantage reversed was hardly a surprise; such self-destruction has been endemic in their campaign. This isn't to take anything away from Hoffenheim, who executed their goals outstandingly well. Their stars are Firmino and Volland, and sure enough, it had to be them who scored in arguably the biggest match of the season for the village club. Firmino's and Volland's best efforts weren't enough to secure victory, but they (as well as many previous and more to come) have undoubtedly played well enough to gather interest from potential suitors in Germany and abroad. Firmino has already begun to assert himself in the Brazil national team, and Volland will have a chance to shine as Germany's captain at the under-21 European Championship this summer. The prevailing narrative ultimately was Dortmund finding a new way to win as they showed a glimmer of the collectivism and fighting spirit that had brought them to the Champions League final in 2013. Rallying back after losing the lead, pinning Hoffenheim back at times and claiming victory from an unlikely source—this is the kind of victory that they needed. The fact that they managed it without many star players is equally important. It will embolden those who normally play a muted role and ease the burden from the shoulders of those usually expected to deliver. Dortmund will predictably be tired heading into the weekend, and many times before this season, they struggled to build momentum after a good performance. It could well be that they again fail to follow up a big win with another positive result, but at least the faithful fans were treated to one vintage performance from their club that had a happy ending. It'd been a long time coming.

The cliché Efficient and disciplined. You can never write off the Germans. The reality German invincibility has taken a pounding in the past five years, with England, Romania and Italy all handing out the sort of thrashings that would have been inconceivable in the past. A shortage of talent means heavy reliance on Michael Ballack and the team have tried 14 different defenders in the past 18 months without improvement. Still as they showed in Korea/Japan you can, er, never write them off. Where they're staying Schloss Hotel im Grunewald. A luxurious Berlin mansion recently renovated under the supervision of pony-tailed fashion guru Karl Lagerfeld. As well as the usual delights, the Schloss boasts a "technology butler" - surely enough on its own to distract the boys from Berlin's prodigious club scene. Grudge match Frank Rijkaard's spit dribbling from Rudi Völler's bubble perm and Ronald Koeman claiming to have wiped his bum with Olaf Thon's shirt has fuelled a sense of German grievance with Holland. The politics Oliver Kahn and Jens Lehmann are locked in a ferocious battle of egos and have not attended squad sessions together for more than a year because of fears that they would poison the atmosphere. Now Lehmann is first choice, Kahn claims he "will not wish him an injury or red card". Yeah, right. Supported by Thousands of men with big moustaches dressed in denim waistcoats covered in club patches and badges will lend a Status Quo concert air to games. Slogan on team coach "We are football" The coach: Jürgen Klinsmann On his chalkboard Jürgen Klinsmann has brought a New Age approach to coaching Germany with psychological training, a laid-back attitude to discipline and some US fitness coaches who he claims will increase the team's stamina by 30%. The former Spurs striker emphasises "positivity". Just as well, because the defence is a shambles. In his closet Klinsi once threatened to quit playing in protest at environmental damage. He now commutes by aeroplane from California. The players Most likely to move to Bolton Bernd Schneider. The John Hegley look-alike from Bayer Leverkusen has the midfield skills and, at 32, the heavy legs to find favour with those Trotters still pining for the days when Fredi Bobic saved them from relegation. Oscar nominee Michael Ballack normally tops the poll of Schwalbenkonig (diving-kings) though, when Franz Beckenbauer said play-actors ruined the Bundesliga, he didn't mention the Bayern Munich star. Odd that. King of the endorsements Kahn is top man thanks to a major deal with Burger King and TV adverts for the Paulaner Brewery that see him supping a vast flagon of lager in a Munich beer garden, but Lukas Podolski is catching up thanks to his hunky appearance in a deodorant ad. You'll be copying . . . The salmon-like leaping of Miroslav Klose, who out jumps defenders as if he's on a pogo stick and then skies his header over the bar. Nation sweating on Sebastian Kehl is hardly a household name, possibly not even in his own gaff, but Germans, having already lost the luckless Sebastian Diesler, will be hoping he recovers from an ankle injury. Rooney to have a grand on Superfast midfielder David Odonkor outsprinting Theo Walcott over 100m (his PB for the distance is 10.9sec). If they were shoes . . . Hush Puppies Solid, dependable, robust. They rarely set the pulse racing though you have to admire that they've been an ever-present on the big stage since we were kids.

When I was young I was influenced by totally the wrong sort of people. I got into a lot of fights and I did some terrible things. I've calmed down since but it's not always easy when people whistle The Great Escape at you all the time." What they eat Sausages, of course. Germany is home to more than 150 varieties of wurst made from just about every part of an animal you can imagine - and some you'd probably rather not. What they watch Soap opera Gute Zeiten Schlechte Zeiten (Good Times and Bad Times) regularly attracts 40% of the viewing share and helped launch the pop career of Jeanette Biedermann - the German Britney. Anthem in brief The Germans praise German wine, women and songs and vow to keep them safe and happy even if it means lining river banks with their arms linked.

Immediately before Bayern embarked on this current, unprecedented period of dominance, Borussia Dortmund were Germany’s top dogs. Die Schwarzgelben won back-to-back titles in 2010/11 and 2011/12, and the second of those two triumphs was accompanied by a DFB Cup triumph. bundesliga.com takes a look back at BVB’s double-winners… Celebrating 60 years of Bundesliga! Roman Weidenfeller (goalkeeper) Weidenfeller is a bona fide Dortmund legend – only two players have made more than the shot-stopper’s 453 appearances for the club – and the 2011/12 campaign was his finest hour. He played in 32 of his side’s 34 league matches and missed just two games during the victorious Cup run. The 15 clean sheets he kept were unsurprisingly a division high, while his save from Arjen Robben’s penalty against Bayern on Matchday 32 all but secured the Meisterschale. His season ended on something of a sour note as he was forced off with an injury early on in the DFB Cup final against the same opponents, but by that point, he had already made a telling impact. Łukasz Piszczek (right-back) Piszczek arrived at Dortmund in 2010 after six years at fellow Bundesliga outfit Hertha Berlin, and he could hardly have joined at a better time. The Poland international immediately became Jürgen Klopp’s go-to right-back as Dortmund won the 2010/11 title, and he remained ever reliable as BVB remained on top of the pile the following year. Although a solid defender, Piszczek was more than adept going forward, scoring four goals and providing a further eight assists in 32 league appearances that campaign. He was also an ever-present in the Cup, playing every single minute of that particular journey. Neven Subotić (centre-back) Every team needs a no-nonsense defender, and Subotić fit the bill. Standing at just under 6'4", he was a colossus who used his height and power to bully opposing attackers. Injuries kept him on the sidelines at intervals throughout this term, but he still played 25 league games and five Cup ties, including the final. He would go on to spend a further six years at the Signal Iduna Park before moving on to Union Berlin in 2018, and will forever be remembered for his role in Klopp’s best Dortmund XI. Mats Hummels (centre-back) The Subotić and Hummels centre-back partnership began in 2008 as the two replaced the departing duo of Christian Wörns and Robert Kovač, who had conceded a league-high 62 goals during the 2007/08 season. As such, by the time 2011 came around, the Germany international and his Serbian counterpart had found a fantastic chemistry that allowed them to become the foundation of the side. Hummels was omitted from the starting line-up just once in the Bundesliga and even scored in the Cup final. The North-Rhine Westphalia native was already a rising star, but his performances this term cemented his status as one of European football’s best central defenders. Marcel Schmelzer (left-back) Injury hampered Schmelzer in the opening weeks of the season, but once he returned to full fitness, he was an immovable object at the left of the back four as Dortmund dispatched almost all before them. Although not as offensively-minded as Piszczek on the opposite flank, “Schmelle” still managed one goal and four assists in all competitions – that solitary strike was his first Bundesliga goal in his 79th outing. Throughout his time at Dortmund, he was a popular figure both amongst the playing staff and supporters, and his presence helped keep the team moving in the right direction. Sebastian Kehl (central midfielder) It is a testament to Kehl’s experience and importance to Dortmund at the time that the only three Bundesliga games Dortmund lost that seasin were in the absence of their influential captain. Much like Subotić behind him, the skipper was an enforcer, doing the dirty work so that those around him could express themselves in the right area of the pitch. That isn’t to say he wasn’t capable of contributing going forward, picking up three Bundesliga goals and assists apiece. Kehl had already been at the club for nine years by August 2011, making him one of the elder statesmen in the dressing room, and therefore knew exactly what was expected of him. İlkay Gündoğan (central midfielder) Upon his arrival during the 2011 summer transfer window, Gündoğan was something of an unknown, having just two Bundesliga seasons with Nuremberg under his belt. His lack of experience, therefore, may have contributed to his disappointing first half of the season, during which he started the first nine games before being dropped and subsequently criticised by pundits for his performances. However, after the winter break, he improved drastically and was a key player during the run-in. After helping Dortmund to the title, he scored a 120th-minute winner in the Cup semi-final before playing the whole 90 minutes in Berlin. His stock has been on the rise ever since. Jakub Błaszczykowski (right winger) Few players, German or otherwise, have understood what it means to play for Dortmund quite like Błaszczykowski. The pacey winger was a fan favourite during his time in the Ruhr and, while he wasn’t quite at the peak of his powers in 11/12, he proved to be someone Klopp could lean on as the season progressed. Admittedly, he started slowly, but by May, he was proving decisive almost every week, ending the campaign with six goals and 10 assists. Often with a smile on his face, “Kuba” continued to delight fans until his departure for Wolfsburg in 2016. Shinji Kagawa (attacking midfielder) Thanks to his showings this season, Kagawa had the world at his feet, proving himself to be one of the leading playmakers across the continent. He didn’t contribute to a goal until Matchday 6 of the Bundesliga term but, after that, he did so almost every matchday. His technique and creative vision consistently had opponents in knots, and his display in the DFB Cup final was the cherry on top of the Dortmund cake – he scored and assisted at the Olympiastadion as Bayern were torn to shreds. Mario Götze (left winger) Born and bred in the city, Götze was Dortmund’s prodigal son, and had already starred in 2010/11 as he and his teammates reigned supreme amongst the German elite. Unfortunately, a serious hip issue arose in January 2012 and kept him out of the majority of the season’s remainder, but he still shone when he was available. He ended the term with six goals and five assists in 17 league outings, hardly a poor return, and he was at least able to be a part of the matchday squad for the Cup final. Watch: Mario Götze - the Dortmund years Robert Lewandowski (striker) Where else could we end than with the incomparable Lewandowski? The centre-forward’s record-breaking days at Bayern were still a fair way off when he was doing the business week-in, week-out for their perennial rivals, although his goals still led to the same, inevitable conclusion – trophies. As Dortmund stood on the top of both the league and cup podiums, the now-35-year-old scored 22 and seven in each respective competition, including a hat-trick in the latter’s final. That was one of two three-goal domestic hauls, while he netted a further seven braces as he developed into one of Europe’s leading marksmen. Watch: Dortmund's history of great goalscorers, featuring Robert Lewandowski Statistics don’t always tell the full story, but this time they most certainly do – throughout those 12 months, Lewandowski was close to unstoppable.

Borussia Dortmund
https://www.borussiadortmund.co.uk/player-profile/sebastian-kehl-the-captain-foundation-of-the-yellow-wall/
After starting his career in Hannover, Kehl moved to Freiburg and was a big part in their UEFA Cup qualification. So much so that he caught the attention of giants Bayern Munich. Usually in these situations, Bayern snap up the young prospects early, in this instance Kehl didn’t like how negotiations were being handled and rejected the Bavarians. The following season Freiburg were on course for relegation and in the January before their impending doom, Kehl made his move; his destination; BVB. It was there where he transitioned from a sweeper into a defensive midfielder and one that remains irreplaceable in the eyes of Dortmund fans. Mostly making appearances from the bench, Kehl celebrated his first season at BVB with the Bundesliga Championship. Imagine turning down an opportunity to sign for Bayern and winning the Bundesliga a year later; what a story! The following season Kehl and BVB were unable to retain their title and finished 3rd, 17 points behind runaway winners Bayern. It was then that financial issues started to immerge and the following season Dortmund finished in 6th place. This was the beginning of a torrid time for the club as their stars were sold to help fund the financial crisis, Kehl was one of few who stuck around to see things through. With Dortmund finishing 7th, 7th, 9th & 13th things were going from bad to worse and by this point the club was made up of pretty mediocre quality. Kehl suffered a serious knee injury which kept him out for the entire 06/07 season and due to the faith shown to him from the club and supporters he stayed on aiming to repay that faith. After a dreadful 13th place finish Jürgen Klopp was appointed manager and with his charisma, passion and aggressive brand of football, the Dortmund faithful were optimistic towards the change. Klopp’s first task, appoint a new captain; up steps Kehl. He had fit the bill that Klopp saw in a leader, his positional play, discipline and desire to fight for the team were the exact credentials that made him the ideal candidate. Kehl suffered two more serious injuries in the coming years which introduced the immerging youngster Sven Bender and Nuri Sahin. Kehl was always around and whether it be on the field or in the dressing room, his influence on the side was key in Dortmund’s rise under Klopp. In 2012 Klopp’s Dortmund won the league a cup double, the Bundesliga 10 years on from their last title and 10 years from when Kehl joined the club. Many of the immerging stars like Lewandowski, Gotze and Hummels will take the plaudits but Kehl was the under the radar, vital piece in the jigsaw. His main responsibility was to sit in front of the defence and mop up any loose balls that may pose a threat. He was in a similar mould to Kante, before Kante turned up a made a name for himself. Even in his advancing years, his energy levels were high and that suited Klopp’s high pressing system. The thing that made Kehl such a hit with the fans on top of his reliable protection of the defence was his passing ability. When Dortmund were on the attack, his positioning as a deep midfielder more often than not saw him have the time and space to play a precise pass to a more advanced team mate. But he wasn’t just a good passer of the ball when given time and space, even under pressure his passing skills at a higher tempo matched the style Klopp wanted. The beauty of Klopp’s system meant that any one of the midfield 3 could act as the attacking threat, although Kehl’s job was to be the barrier, his later surging runs often left the opposition bamboozled. How often do you see a defensive midfielder charging into the box, sprinting past attacking midfielders and strikers to get on the end of a cross; only one man, Kehl. His strength, vision, athleticism and determination highlight that Kehl was one of those midfielders that has almost everything. His cool head and discipline could mean that in highly pressured situations he could maintain composure and always seem to be in the right place at the right time to win the ball back. It’s why he managed to represent Die Mannschaft on 31 occasions scoring 3 goals. After another serious injury, Kehl decided to call time on his playing career at the end of the 2014/15 season at the age of 35. The same year the Klopp decided to also call time on his 7 year journey with BVB. It makes you wonder what Kelh’s career could have been like if he did decide to sign for Bayern? And what would have been if he didn’t suffer the amount of long term injuries? All hypothetical of course, but regardless of that, Sebastian Kehl will always be remembered as Capitano, a warrior for Dortmund who will always live in the shadows of Klopp’s attacking stars, but appreciated by all fans.

... Al-Ittihad Al-Islamiya, a terrorist group with links to al-Qaeda; his bomb ... live mu- sic, shuttered movie theaters, and closed video rental shops .... Al Hilal vs. Al Ittihad: How to watch, live stream George Best also missed the ending, having left the stadium with a couple of minutes remaining. Eric Cantona, who lived in Barcelona at the time, couldn’t even get into the stadium after walking into the wrong jobsworth before the game. Pressure gives us inspiration and motivates us to play strongly and please our people. I congratulate all the players, they fully deserve to reach the next stage.” The Wales international was clipped by Ben Whiteman in the box and referee Simon Hooper pointed to the spot, with Grabban keeping his cool to convert the penalty. Liverpool midfielder Henderson has returned to Merseyside after picking up an injury while Manchester City forward Sterling will sit the game out for personal reasons. A lack of goals usually means less chance for chaos and counter-attacks and a knock-on effect for cards. “How I left Inter, how I communicated with the fans, this bothers me because it is not the right time now, but even when I left it was not the right time. There was good effort and a good team performance today, but we lacked quality in both boxes. Then they scored and it changed the mood again. Hearts equalised in first-half stoppage time when Halliday drilled a low angled shot in off the inside of the post after great work by Peter Haring, Alex Cochrane and Simms in the build-up. Thomas Tuchel has revealed he only beat his Covid isolation at the second-to-last chance to coach Chelsea to their maiden Club World Cup title in person. I'm so proud of the players. They had to dig deep towards the end and we had a little bit of Lady Luck with the offside. Crystal Palace’s James McArthur volleyed Bukayo Saka during the home draw with Crystal Palace and escaped with just a yellow card, while in the meeting with Manchester City on New Year's Day, Martin Odegaard was denied a penalty after being tripped by Ederson – only for City to then be awarded a spot-kick of their own when Bernando Silva went down after a tussle with Xhaka.

For that to happen, we need a few tactical sidenotes to become more prominent. For Man City, their 1-1 draw with Southampton on Saturday was further evidence that they can be made to look sluggish. However, for the GFA to conclude that Rajevac is the cause, and to cut him loose less than two months before the World Cup qualifying double-header against Nigeria is a risky move.

Looking back at the Chelsea game, we gave the best impression of ourselves with our most valuable characteristics on display - we took the game to them, our possession was controlled in the opposition half and we regained the ball well. But, as would happen again 10 years later, prosecutors were frustrated at the final outcome. Of the 68 suspects named by judicial authorities, only a few were convicted even then on relatively minor charges. The senior officials or club owners who had variously denied charges of fraud, extortion or money laundering were all acquitted. But I am not going to claim to know much about football - think of me as being like To just be talking for days about the defence - I mean that's dedication! He played every game in the Premier League for them last season and also picked up the players' player of the season prize, underlining how well regarded he is at Villa Park. He really is capable of causing all sorts of hassle for opposition defenders. Credit to Fulham, too, they've been free-scoring this season. Fishlock wrapped up the points with a well-taken third, opening up her body and scoring from 12 yards to leave Wales with the prospect of qualifying for their first World Cup.

Speaking exclusively to Kicker, Borussia Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl discussed the appointment of Edin Terzić as head coach and why the former interim is the right person for the role. “Edin brings high quality, both professionally and personally,” said Kehl. “He’s good at communication and manages to get the boys excited and involved. He has a high degree of emotionality, will and willingness to work hard. “In addition, despite his age, he has already gained a lot of experience in various roles, here at the club but also in other countries.” Born on the outskirts of Dortmund, Terzić grew up in Menden, around 30 kilometres from the Westfalenstadion. The 39-year-old is BVB through-and-through and was appointed as a successor to Marco Rose in the summer after just one season in charge. “He has a huge identification with the city, the region and the people,” added Kehl. “He’s authentic, that’s the important thing. It usually doesn’t happen that the coach of a big club comes from the vicinity of your own city. People are looking forward to that.” Terzić has brought in the well-respected Peter Hermann as assistant coach. Kehl added: “We’re very happy to have Peter Hermann on the coaching staff. He has a lot of experience, brings a different perspective on football, has a good knowledge of human nature and knows exactly how a group works in order to be successful in the end.”

Those announced today: Italy: Goalkeepers: Buffon (Juventus), Peruzzi (Lazio), Amelia (Livorno) Defenders: Zambrotta (Juventus), Nesta (Milan), Cannavaro (Juventus), Grosso (Palermo), Zaccardo (Palermo), Barzagli (Palermo), Materazzi (Inter), Oddo (Lazio) Midfielders: Camoranesi (Juventus), Pirlo (Milan), Gattuso (Milan), De Rossi (Roma), Perrotta (Roma), Barone (Palermo) Attackers: Totti (Roma), Toni (Fiorentina), Gilardino (Milan), Del Piero (Juventus), Inzaghi (Milan), Iaquinta (Udinese) Not a bad squad here, although the decision to select Materazzi was more of a token Inter slection, unless he is there as the player so everybody can blame when he hacks down Ronaldino in the Semi Final that gives away the free kick/penalty that gets Italy knocked out of the World Cup or gives away a comical own goal and results in similar fashion for Italy Good to see Peter Pan wasn't there (Cassano), not only wasn't not getting any game time (or enough) at Real Madrid, the fact that I think he and Totti want to have brawl (well they are not friends) is a good thing for team harmony. Brazil: Goalkeepers: Dida (AC Milan), Julio Cesar (Inter), Rogerio Ceni (San Paolo) Defenders: Cafu (AC Milan), Cicinho (Real Madrid), Roberto Carlos (Real Madrid), Gilberto (Hertha Berlin), Juan (Bayer Leverkusen), Lucio (Bayern Munich), Luisao (Benfica), Cris (Lyon) Midfielders: Emerson (Juventus), Edmilson (Barcelona), Zé Roberto (Bayern Munich), Gilberto Silva (Arsenal), Juninho Pernambucano (Lyon), Ricardinho (Corinthians), Kakà (AC Milan), Ronaldinho Gaucho (Barcelona) Strikers: Ronaldo (Real Madrid), Robinho (Real Madrid), Adriano (Inter), Fred (Lyon) Ricardinho surprised me a little bit, aalthough I have to admit that Carlos Alberto Parreira has seen him play more then I have lately so he must be going ok at Santos, and Fred was bit of a bolter, and I think Ceni is there for the penalty shoot-out (not for saving but for scoring them). I hope Adriano can refind his form and I am happy Gilberto Silva is there as well. Portugal: Goalkeepers: Ricardo (Sporting Lisbon), Quim (Benfica), Bruno Vale (Estrela Amadora) Defenders: Paulo Ferreira (Chelsea), Miguel (Valencia), Ricardo Carvalho (Chelsea), Fernando Meira (Stuttgart), Caneira (Sporting Lisbon), Ricardo Costa (Porto), Nuno Valente (Everton) Midfielders: Petit (Benfica), Costinha (Dynamo Moscow), Tiago (Lyon), Maniche (Chelsea), Hugo Viana (Valencia), Deco (Barcelona), Figo (Inter) Srtikers: Cristiano Ronaldo (Manchester United), Simao (Benfica), Boa Morte (Fulham), Pauleta (Paris SG), Nuno Gomes (Benfica), Helder Postiga (St. Etienne) Remember Postiga and Viana? Two guys for who completely failed to make it in England (although that was the manager's fault in the case of Postiga and probably for Viana), and Caneria a flop at Valencia which forced him to go on loan to Sporting. Thought maybe Joao Moutinho would be in there, unless he is injured or out of form? Argentina: Abbondanzieri, Leo Franco, Ustari, Coloccini, Cufré, Ayala, Gabriel Milito, Sorin, Heinze, Burdisso, Scaloni, Luis González, Maxi Rodríguez, Cambiasso, Mascherano, Aimar, Riquelme, Palacio, Crespo, Tevez, Messi, Saviola, Cruz Little bit surprised about Burdisso TBH, with only 16 games in the league, and five of them as a sub, he hasn't that amount of games to convinces us what he is worth. Probably as depth more then anything, although he has been shown a red card in both the league and Coppa Italia. I am happy with Cruz being in there and I hope Messi isn't too underdone. Serbia & Montenegro: Dragoslav Jevric (Anakaraspor), Oliver Kovacevic (CSKA Sofia), Vladimir Stojkovic (Nantes); Goran Gavrancic (Dinamo Kiev), Dusan Basta (Red Star Belgrade), Ivica Dragutinovic (Seville), Nemanja Vidic (Manchester United), Mladen Krstajic (Schalke 04), Nenad Djordjevic (Partizan Belgrade), Milan Dudic (Red Star Belgrade); Dejan Stankovic (Inter), Igor Duljaj (Shakhtar Donetsk), Predrag Djordjevic (Olympiakos), Ognjen Koroman (Portsmouth), Sasa Ilic (Galatasaray), Albert Nadj (Partizan Belgrade) Danijel Ljuboja (Stuttgart), Zvonimir Vukic (Partizan Belgrade) Ivan Ergic (Basel); Mateja Kezman (Atletico Madrid), Nikola Zigic (Red Star Belgrade), Savo Milosevic (Osasuna), Mirko Vucinic (Lecce). Czech Republic: Goalkeepers: Jaromir Blazek (Sparta Prague), Petr Cech (Chelsea), Antonin Kinsky (Saturn Ramenskoye) Defenders: Zdenek Grygera (Ajax Amsterdam), Marek Jankulovski (AC Milan), Martin Jiranek (Spartak Moscow), Radoslav Kovac (Spartak Moscow), Pavel Mares (Zenit St Petersburg), David Rozehnal (Paris St Germain), Tomas Ujfalusi (Fiorentina) Midfielders: Tomas Galasek (Ajax Amsterdam), David Jarolim (Hamburg SV), Pavel Nedved (Juventus), Jaroslav Plasil (Monaco), Karel Poborsky (Ceske Budejovice), Jan Polak (Nuremberg), Tomas Rosicky (Borussia Dortmund), Vladimir Smicer (Girondins Bordeaux) Forwards: Milan Baros (Aston Villa), Marek Heinz (Galatasaray), Jan Koller (Borussia Dortmund), Vratislav Lokvenc (Red Bull Salzburg), Jiri Stajner (Hanover 96) Karel Poborsky must surely be getting on now? Ecuador: Goalkeepers: Edwin Villafuerte (Deportivo Quito), Cristian Mora (LDU), Damian Lanza (Aucas) Defenders: Ivan Hurtado (Al Arabi, Qatar), Geovanny Espinoza (LDU), Ulises De la Cruz (Aston Villa), Paul Ambrossi (LDU), Neicer Reasco (LDU), Jorge Guagua (El Nacional), Jose Luis Perlaza (Olmedo) Midfielders: Marlon Ayovi (Deportivo Quito), Edwin Tenorio (Barcelona), Edison Mendez (LDU), Patricio Urrutia (LDU), Cristian Lara (El Nacional), Segundo Castillo (El Nacional), Luis Antonio Valencia (Recreativo Huelva, Spain), Luis Fernando Saritama (Deportivo Quito) Forwards: Cristian Benitez (El Nacional), Felix Borja (El Nacional), Carlos Tenorio (Al Sadd, Qatar), Agustin Delgado (LDU), Ivan Kaviedes (Argentinos Juniors, Argentina) Germany: Goalkeepers: Jens Lehmann (Arsenal/ENG), Oliver Kahn (Bayern Munich) Timo Hildebrand (VfB Stuttgart). Defenders: Arne Friedrich (Hertha Berlin), Robert Huth (Chelsea), Marcell Jansen (Borussia Monchengladbach), Per Mertesacker (Hannover), Christoph Metzelder (Borussia Dortmund), Philipp Lahm (Bayern Munich), Jens Nowotny (Bayer Leverkusen). Midfielders: Michael Ballack (Chelsea), Bastian Schweinsteiger (Bayern Munich), Tim Borowski (Werder Bremen), Torsten Frings (Werder Bremen), Sebastian Kehl (Borussia Dortmund), Bernd Schneider (Bayer Leverkusen), Thomas Hitzlsperger (VfB Stuttgart), David Odonkor (Borussia Dortmund). Fowards: Miroslav Klose (Werder Bremen), Lukas Podolski (FC Cologne), Mike Hanke (VfL Wolfsburg), Oliver Neuville (Borussia Monchengladbach), Gerald Asamoah (Schalke 04). Holland: Keepers: Edwin van der Sar (Manchester United), Maarten Stekelenburg (Ajax), Henk Timmer (AZ Alkmaar). Defenders: Khalid Boulahrouz (Hamburg SV), Giovanni van Bronckhorst (Barcelona), Tim de Cler (AZ Alkmaar), Kew Jaliens (AZ Alkmaar), Jan Kromkamp (Liverpool), Joris Mathijsen (AZ Alkmaar), Andre Ooijer (PSV Eindhoven), Johnny Heitinga (Ajax). Midfielders: Mark van Bommel (Barcelona), Phillip Cocu (PSV Eindhoven), Denny Landzaat (AZ Alkmaar), Hedwiges Maduro (Ajax), Wesley Sneijder (Ajax), Rafael van der Vaart (Hamburg SV). Strikers: Ryan Babel (Ajax), Dirk Kuyt (Feyenoord), Ruud van Nistelrooy (Manchester United), Robin van Persie (Arsenal), Arjen Robben (Chelsea), Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink (PSV Eindhoven). I have made my thoughts known in the Dutch thread. Barney Rubble said: No Andres D'Alessandro in the Argentina squad?!?!? Well, there's a stupid decision. He's on fire at the moment, who cares if he plays for a 'small' club? Whose he going to replace? Had an awful couple of years at VFL Wolfsburg also, played well for Pompey but Jose Pekerman has travelled quite a bit to Germany to watch him. His development from the boy wonder at River Plate to the tinted hair tart is not good enough. There is no way anyone could suggest his a better player at this moment in time than Pablo Aimar (a very similar player to Andres) and Juan Roman Riquelme, two players he would be competing against. Don't think small club has anything to do with it, seen in selection of West Ham's on loan Argentina Lionel Scaloni. Elsewhere looks a pretty strange team choice by Peckerman, no Javier Zanetti, Walter Samuel or even Diego Milito, 'The Gardner' Julio Cruz and Lionel Scaloni travel instead.

Borussia Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl was ecstatic after his squad clinched a spot in the Champions League final bying down Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 (2-0 on aggregate) on Tuesday. With a spot already set for the final at Wembley Stadium, Kehl immediate turned his attention to who he would like to see emerge the victor from the Bayern Munich vs. Real Madrid semifinal. Not surprisingly, Kehl is hoping for an all-German finale. “I would like Bayern,” said Kehl (as captured by Get German Football News). “I have the feeling we still have a score to settle. We should take the goal down and take it to Dortmund with us. Maybe we’ll need it again at Wembley. It was hell in the dressing room: loud music and alcohol.” Certainly, 2013 is still stuck in everyone’s memory, but how crazy is it to think that two German teams could make the UCL final — and neither would be the actual best team from Germany this season, who we all now know is Bayer Leverkusen. That...is crazy to think about...and with the stage set for Wembley once again, it would be really cool to see Bayern Munich vs. Borussia Dortmund go at it once more 11 years later.

He spent over 13 years as a Borussia Dortmund player, wearing the captain's armband for six seasons and lifting three Bundesliga trophies. Now, Sebastian Kehl is tasked with restoring his club to their former glory as he replaces the long-standing Michael Zorc as BVB's sporting director. "I have felt very closely connected to this great club for almost 20 years now," Kehl declared in June 2021, when he was announced as Zorc's successor. "I'm proud to be given the opportunity to shape the sporting future of Borussia Dortmund." Before looking to what lies ahead, however, bundesliga.com invites you on a trip down memory lane to get a clearer picture of the man who will be looking to take the Black and Yellows back to the summit of the German game. 1) He chose Dortmund over Bayern 'The summit of the German game' can usually be defined in two words: Bayern Munich. And yet Kehl rejected a lucrative offer from the record Bundesliga champions in the summer of 2001, preferring to join Dortmund midway through the following season. Kehl turned pro with Hannover in 1998, but really started making a name for himself at Freiburg (2000-02), where he was deployed as a sweeper by legendary coach Volker Finke. Drawing comparisons with the great Franz Beckenbauer, Kehl helped the Black Forest club reach the UEFA Cup in 2000/01, as they finished sixth in the Bundesliga. He also earned his first call-up to the Germany squad, making his international debut under Rudi Völler in May 2001. Watch: Kehl's top 5 Bundesliga goals Bayern and Dortmund were soon engaged in a tug of war to secure the services of the Hessen native, who was then just 21 years old. He eventually opted for the latter, penning a four-year deal with BVB in January 2002. "I'm delighted to have him," said then BVB coach Matthias Sammer, who previously occupied the same sweeper position as Kehl. "I'm counting on him performing right away." Sammer would not be disappointed. Kehl played all but one of the remaining 16 Bundesliga games for Dortmund that term, helping them secure the title just ahead of Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern. It was the first time they had lifted the Meisterschale since 1995/96, when Sammer himself was anchoring the midfield in the same libero position as Kehl. 2) Jürgen Klopp made him Dortmund captain Kehl was the new kid on the block when he joined Dortmund at the start of 2002, but by the time Jürgen Klopp was appointed as coach in summer 2008, the battling midfielder had established himself as one of the squad's leaders – and a firm fan favourite. 'Sebastian, please stay and sign!' read one BVB banner during the 2005/06 campaign, a few months before Kehl's contract was set to expire – and he did exactly that, extending through to 2008. "I belong here," he confessed, saying he had 'followed his heart' despite offers from abroad. "I identify with the club and the supporters. I believe we can make a step forward and reach European competition again in the next few years." In the mid-2000s the club had struggled to keep pace with the Bundesliga frontrunners. After their title win of 2001/02, they finished third and sixth in their next two seasons under Sammer. Dutch coach Bert van Marwijk could only manage successive seventh places, before Dortmund laboured to ninth and 13th place – their worst finish in 20 years – under Thomas Doll. But their fortunes were set to change when Klopp came on board in 2008, after an impressive seven-year stint in charge of Mainz. One of his first major decisions was to give 28-year-old Kehl the captain's armband, to succeed retiring skipper Christian Wörns. "When you think of Dortmund, Sebastian is the first player who comes to mind," Klopp explained. "He's an integral member of the team. And football-wise, he has all the attributes to lead from the front." Slowly but surely, Klopp began to work his magic at the Signal Iduna Park, lifting BVB to sixth place in 2008/09 and fifth in 2009/10, before finally guiding them to another Bundesliga title in 2010/11. Kehl remained one of his most trusted lieutenants throughout, although injuries prevented him playing a major role on the pitch in Klopp's first title-winning season. He was a much more central figure as they defended the Bundesliga crown in 2011/12, before beating Bayern Munich 5-2 in the DFB Cup final to complete a memorable double. "Jürgen has a special charisma, he's a very positive man," Kehl once told the Daily Mail, after Klopp traded Dortmund for Liverpool in 2015. "He carries everybody with him, it's a special type of people management. But he's not walking around with a magic wand, you know? He's following his plan and just wants everyone to give their best. You feel it every day. It's hard work." Watch: Klopp's Dortmund years 3) He suffered a series of injury setbacks Hard work was something Kehl became all too familiar with over the course of his 13 and a half years with Dortmund, especially when it came to his physical fitness. By the time he retired in 2015, he had amassed 362 appearances for Dortmund in all competitions – but without a host of injury woes, it could easily have been closer to 500. Kehl was plagued by all manner of problems during his career – thigh, knee, ankle, shoulder, hamstring, groin, you name it – but his most significant injury was one of the earliest. On 12 August 2006, Dortmund played Bayern in the season opener at Allianz Arena, and in the 19th minute Hasan Salihamidzic slid in on Kehl with his studs up, causing a deep laceration to his knee. BVB thought their star midfielder would only be out for three or four weeks, but the injury was worse than expected, requiring surgery and lengthy rehabilitation. Kehl barely featured for the rest of the season as Dortmund finished ninth, with one of their shareholders describing it to Sport-Bild as "the Bayern tackle that cost us 10 million euros". Kehl publicly stated that he didn't feel Salihamidzic meant to injure him on purpose, but it was definitely a turning point in his career. He only made 14 Bundesliga appearances in the following campaign, 2007/08, and never played for Germany again. The last of his 31 caps for Die Mannschaft came in the third-place play-off at the 2006 FIFA World Cup, a 3-1 victory over Portugal. He also scored two international goals, in friendlies against Hungary and Serbia and Montenegro. In a curious twist, Kehl and Salihamidzic will occupy the same role at Dortmund and Bayern in 2022/23. The former Bosnia and Herzegovina international has acted as sporting director for the Bavarians since July 2017, filling a gap left vacant by Sammer the previous summer. 4) He has been recognised for his charity work Kehl’s work ethic on and off the pitch extends beyond football, the 42-year-old happy to use his platform to help the greater good by involving himself extensively in charity work and social projects. That is perhaps a direct result of his religious upbringing, and he remains a devout Catholic to this day, and even met Pope John Paul II in 2005. Since 2003 he has been part of the ‘School without racism, school with courage’ project that aims to promote diversity in classrooms, sponsoring two schools in Lauterbach and Fulda. Kehl is also involved in the 'Fair Play Hessen' scheme, along with Steffi Jones, promoting integration, tolerance and fair play. Not only that but the former midfielder has been a member of the board of trustees of the DFL Foundation since 2019. In recognition of his efforts, Kehl was awarded the Hessian Order of Merit for his charity and social work in early 2020, an accolade he described as “a great honour”. "Hessen has produced many outstanding footballers and among them is undoubtedly Sebastian Kehl,” said Volker Bouffier, Prime Minister of Hesse state at the time. “With all the great successes he has achieved in his career, it is always important to him to help his state. Sebastian Kehl is particularly committed to diversity, tolerance and fair play. He thus makes a contribution to the cohesion of our society. With that in mind, I am pleased to present him with the Hessian Order of Merit ribbon today." 5) He wants to take BVB back to the top Make no mistake, however: Kehl’s generosity of spirit and sense of social responsibility mask a steely will to win; he is very much both the floating butterfly and the stinging bee. After hanging up his boots in 2015, Kehl completed a qualification in management at UEFA, collected valuable work experience at the German Football Association (DFB) and the German Football League (DFL), and also completed his UEFA A Licence in coaching. All of which paved the way for him to accept a newly created role of Head of the Licensed Player Division at Dortmund in June 2018. If that sounds like vague corporate speak, that’s because it is: in reality he was working closely with Zorc on everything from first-team squad planning and recruitment to youth team development, essentially being groomed for the job he has now been given. "Sebastian has done a good job over the past few years and has already been able to prepare himself for his future role as BVB's sporting director," said Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke. "Of course he has big shoes to fill, but we are convinced that Sebastian has the necessary tools for his job." Zorc believes the same: "Our work together was characterised by great trust from day one. Sebastian has gradually become involved in all the relevant areas of a sporting director. I appreciate his work very much. I think it’s a logical decision that the management has now decided to make him my successor in the summer of 2022.” Now armed with the necessary qualifications and experience, both as a player and in the boardroom, Kehl is eager to kick on and help Dortmund consistently pick up silverware. "Creating the conditions for BVB to continue to be successful in the future is both an aspiration and an obligation for me," he said. Having held his own in Dortmund’s midfield despite the emergence of the likes of Nuri Sahin and Sven Bender back in the day, that same drive and determination at management level can only be a good thing for BVB.

World Cup semifinalists ready for battle - Germany go up against Italy in Dortmund with a slot in the World Cup final at stake on Tuesday, while France and Portugal head for Munich and their clash on Wednesday in the second semifinal.

BERLIN: Germany go up against Italy in Dortmund with a slot in the World Cup final at stake on Tuesday, while France and Portugal head for Munich and their clash on Wednesday in the second semifinal. German hopes of reaching a second successive final were dealt a body blow late on Monday with news that midfield dynamo Torsten Frings would miss the game after being suspended. Frings was one of the players involved in a free-for-all at the end of the tense quarterfinal against Argentina in Berlin on Friday. Argentina's players have returned home but two of them -- Leandro Cufre and Maxi Rodriguez -- are under FIFA investigation for having instigated the brawl. Coach Jurgen Klinsmann must choose between the more attack-minded Tim Borowski of Werder Bremen and hard-tackling Sebastian Kehl of Borussia Dortmund to replace Frings, but either way he says he has the strength in depth to cope. The Germans hope to draw advantage from the fans in Dortmund's atmospheric Westfalenstadion stadium, reputed to be among the most passionate in the country and where the national team has not lost in 14 games played there. "We are really looking forward to playing in Dortmund," said team manager Oliver Bierhoff. "That will be a big advantage for us, since the atmosphere should be unbelievable. We have home advantage and that will really help us." The Italians have problems of their own. They have once again lost experienced central defender Alessandro Nesta to a groin injury and the dark cloud of the football corruption scandal back home still hovers over the squad. Coach Marcello Lippi, however, was more concerned with ruling out any sentiments of over-confidence among his players based on the 4-1 drubbing they handed out to the Germans in a friendly three months before the finals. "Straight after that match I sat down and told the players it would be a huge mistake to think the result was a true reflection of the difference between the two teams," said the former Juventus coach. "It went well for us that night. We scored twice in the first seven minutes and after that we controlled the match. "But Germany took it on the chin and that couldn't have been easy. Then they started to believe in themselves going into this World Cup and they have fully exploited the enthusiasm of the whole country." While the Germans and Italians were ready to do battle, French and Portuguese players were heading south from their training camps in the north of the country to Munich where they will contest Wednesday's second semifinal. The 1998 champions France will start as heavy favourites especially if ageing skipper and midfielder Zinedine Zidane can reproduce the form he so brilliantly displayed in the 1-0 quarterfinal win over Brazil. But the Portuguese players believe they have a special weapon in the burly shape of Brazilian coach Felipe Scolari. Scolari, who led Brazil to World Cup glory four years ago before taking over in Lisbon, is on a record 12-match unbeaten run in World Cup finals matches and he is the most imposing of coaches in Germany. "He gives us so much confidence," said midfielder Hugo Viana. "He trusts us all and this helps. He has done a special thing with us in the World Cup and I hope we can stay with him for many years."

Berlin (AFP) – Borussia Dortmund’s head of player department Sebastian Kehl said on Thursday they could stop their players from featuring for Germany in the Nations League next month due to coronavirus worries. Joachim Loew’s side travel to Ukraine on October 10, a country which is classed as a Covid-19 red zone due to its high number of cases. “We’re working to find solutions, but we reserve the right to not make the players available, as long as there’s no rule allowing the players to play immediately after they return,” Kehl told specialist magazine Kicker. The publication claimed the managers of champions Bayern Munich and Leipzig hold the same view. Rules in Germany state people returning from risk zones must be placed in quarantine before receiving a virus test result. Ahead of September’s international matches FIFA adapted its rules regarding players in areas with high numbers of the virus. Despite the clubs’ worries the German Football Association’s director Oliver Bierhoff said the visit to the Ukrainian capital would last 36 hours and the team would stay away from the public. “We will stay there in a bubble.”

BERLIN (AFP) - Borussia Dortmund's veteran captain Sebastian Kehl has said he will retire in June 2015, having just signed a year's contract extension. The 34-year-old, who made the last of his 31 appearances for Germany at the 2006 World Cup, joined Dortmund in 2002. Kehl scored for Dortmund in last Wednesday's 2-1 defeat at home to Zenit St Peterburg as Borussia went through to the Champions League quarter-finals 5-4 on aggregate having won the first leg 4-2. "Borussia Dortmund, our wonderful team, fans and the city of Dortmund has been my home for many years, so I have decided to continue my stay," said the defensive midfielder. "The decision to end my active career in 2015 has been growing and I hope to still experience some unforgettable moments and great success with the team until then." Kehl has made 289 appearances in the Bundesliga and was part of the teams who won the Bundesliga title in 2002 and 2011, plus 2012 when Borussia won the league and cup double. He was in the squad which lost 2-1 to Bayern Munich in last season's Champions League final at Wembley. "Sebastian is an important leader for us with his huge amount of experience and, on top of that, he is a valuable role model," said Dortmund's director of sport Michael Zorc. "We are very happy that he wants to stay with us until 2015 and wants to end his impressive career in the Dortmund shirt." With both defensive midfielders Sven Bender and Ilkay Gundogan injured, Kehl has been a regular in the Dortmund team this season, forming a partnership alongside former Real Madrid and Liverpool midfielder Nuri Sahin.

30 Months Of Hurt Finally, after two and a half years of humiliation, Berti Vogts was out on his ear. With only 9 wins in 32 games the record of the diminutive German was frankly appalling. Almost single-handedly he had managed to reverse the progress made under Andy Roxburgh and Craig Brown and ...

https://community.sports-interactive.com/forums/topic/109-being-juergen-klinsmann-the-revenge-of-the-tartan-army/
A Cunning Plan The first stage in the Cunning Plan was to find a volunteer who would be prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice. The individual concerned would need to be a true patriot but would have to be able to speak fluent German. They would have to be prepared to go deep undercover, leaving behind their friends and family and cutting off all ties to their previous life. They would also have to undergo painful and irreversible surgery. In short they would have to become JUERGEN KLINSMANN!!! Once a brave volunteer had been found and the months of plastic surgery had been completed, the next step in the Cunning Plan could take place. The real Klinsmann would be kidnapped and held in a secure location whilst his doppelganger took over the reigns. The fake Klinsmann would then proceed to wreck the German national team by selecting second-rate players, instituting bizarre and poorly communicated tactics and blaming everyone else for his failure. If the faux-Klinsmann could hold onto his job for long enough then the German team’s proud record in major competitions would be a thing of the past and they would plummet down the FIFA rankings. And so The Revenge Of The Tartan Army began. A Willing Volunteer Clearly the first stage in the plan was to find a Willing Volunteer. The successful candidate would need to be the same general age, height and build as the real Klinsmann as there was only so much that could be achieved through surgery. He would have to be fluent in German and be able to imitate Klinsmann’s voice and mannerisms so accurately that even the German’s closest friends and family would be fooled by the charade. After patient weeks of searching the Berlin Branch of the Tartan Army finally found their man. Stefan McCardle was the product of a marriage between a Scottish father and a German mother. His parents met when his dad, an army man, was posted to Osnabruck, and the two fell in love and soon married. When Stefan was born his father decided that he would remain in Germany at the end of his tour of duty rather than accepting another posting and uprooting his family, so he bought himself out of the Army. As a skilled electrical engineer he had no great difficulty in finding work and he set up a small business that provided the McCardle’s with a very comfortable living. Stefan’s father enjoyed his life in Germany but he never let his son forget his Scottish roots and the young lad was taught English at home and grew up totally bi-lingual. A keen football fan, McCardle senior followed his local team and his son accompanied him to the home games from an early age. But young Stefan was fully indoctrinated with tales of the Scottish national team and their great players of the past and the McCardle men always took a keen interest in the team’s fortunes. When Stefan was first sounded out about the Cunning Plan he showed an immediate enthusiasm – of course at that time he had no idea that he was being considered as the Willing Volunteer. But gradually he was drawn in deeper and deeper. Not only did Stefan have the right physical attributes – he was a similar age to the real Klinsmann, was tall, slim and blond – but he had no strong family ties (his parents had met with a tragic accident a couple of years earlier) and he was a gifted amateur thespian. He was finally convinced to take on the task when it was suggested that the Cunning Plan would serve as a monument to his late father who, alas, had not lived to see his beloved Scotland rid themselves of the disastrous Vogts. Uproar In The Press At the time of Stefan’s insertion the German national team was in 13th place in the FIFA rankings. The team would be competing in the Confederations Cup in June and before that time they had two friendly games scheduled, an away game in Nigeria and a home game against Uruguay. When Stefan announced his squad for the game in Nigeria the German Press went haywire – most of the 22 players were complete unknowns. FC Bayern keeper Oliver Kahn was the only prominent player in the squad. There were a few players from First Division clubs but most came from teams in the lower divisions. The only capped players were Kahn, midfielder Stefan Freund and winger Horst Heldt. But there was one common factor – they were all at least 35 years of age. At a chaotic press conference Stefan, as Klinsmann, made a short announcement. “I have chosen a German squad packed with experienced players because at International level experience is very important. You cannot rely on young players at this level as they, by their very definition, are lacking in experience in light of their extreme youthfulness. I am confident that the mature professionals that I have selected will do me proud.†Refusing to answer any questions me made his escape and decided to lay low until the squad flew out to Nigeria. The game itself was a little disappointing as his team of journeymen did surprisingly well, only losing 2-0. On his return to Germany, Stefan made a brief appearance in front of the press to give his views on the game. “We were obviously very unfortunate to have lost this game. For many of our squad this was the first time that they had left their native shores and clearly the experience of visiting the Dark Continent was difficult for them. There were many other factors that contributed to our unlucky defeat - many of the players were airsick during the long flight; the pitch was not in very good condition; the game was played with a yellow ball; there are too many foreign players in Germany; the general weakness of the German economy is a concern for everyone and it certainly affected the focus of the team. But rest assured that I am not concerned by this one-off result and we will rectify the situation in our next match, of that I am certain.†Thanks Simon. Stuart, you must be a mind reader Giving Youth Their Head Within a couple of weeks the faux-Klinsmann had to announce his team squad for the visit of Uruguay and once again there was a shock in store for the assembled press. This time he had made his selection from some of the larger clubs in Germany – FC Bayern, HSV, Hertha BSC, Hannover 96 and others. That wasn’t the surprise. The bombshell was that all of his squad were aged 18 or under. Once again Stefan made a brief statement at a frenzied press conference. “It should be clear to all of you, as indeed it is to me, that the future of our national team lies with youth. In the words of the great Whitney Houston - 'I believe the children are our future, Teach them well and let them lead the way'. Fine words indeed, and who can argue with that sentiment. You see before you a new generation of German players that will lead our country to glory and give us a brave new future.†Declining to answer the frantic barrage of questions that his statement had generated, he quickly left and tried to stay out of the limelight until the day of the match. The game was not a success for Stefan as his youngsters did remarkably well, holding on for a scoreless draw. He did his best to disrupt them by making nine substitutions during the game but to no avail. Despite his personal disappointment, Stefan put a very positive spin on the result during his post-match statement. “A goalless draw against one of the best teams in world football is a very creditable result for my young team. With a little more good fortune we could easily have won. Events conspired against us, of that there is no doubt. Consider the following – none of the youngsters had played for their country before; a number of them were feeling very homesick and missing their parents; the evening kick-off was very late and past the normal bed time for several of my players; playing in front of a large crowd was quite upsetting for some – the noise gives them a headache; and of course the high unemployment rate is a concern for everyone in the country.†Cheers WLKRAS The Confederations Cup As the German domestic season came to a close there was increasing speculation regarding the squad for the forthcoming Confederations Cup tournament. It hadn’t taken the German press long to question the sanity of their national coach following his recent squad selections and the 22 unveiled by Stefan for the tournament only served to increase the outcry to near-hysterical levels. The entire squad came from a single team – VfB Lubeck who had finished 14th in the Second Division. Stefan made his usual brief announcement at the press briefing before taking his leave and going into hiding. “The single most important factor in the long term success of any team is consistency – and continuity of course. And what could offer more in that arena than a group of players who are teammates at club level as well as at International level. Hence my selection today. Why Lubeck you will ask – why not a team such as FC Bayern after their all-conquering season both domestically and in Europe. I’ll tell you why. I have found that the most important factor in selection for the national team is that you must be German. And FC Bayern have too many foreign players. The same with Dortmund, Schalke, Stuttgart and all of the other top teams. The Lubeck players are all German and are all proud to be representing their country. Consistency is key and this is a very consistent squad.†For Germany the competition started with a game against Australia and Stefan was pretty disappointed with the scoreless draw. Next up came Senegal and Stefan was positively distressed when his team won 2-0. The 3-0 defeat by Argentina in the final game was much more satisfactory although given the bizarre tactics that Stefan employed he had expected a higher scoreline. Luckily this meant that Germany finished 3rd in their group with Argentina and Australia qualifying. In his post-tournament summary, Stefan tried to highlight the positives. “Let’s look at it this way – we only lost one game out of three and that’s pretty good. My innovation to have the very popular Der Drei Lederhosen singing the national anthem before each game was a masterstroke, enthusing the crowd and giving us great support. There have been some questions about the tactics that I employed in the final game but I felt that playing with no one in central midfield and deploying 5 wingers would confuse the opposition but Argentina are a world class team and they managed to adapt to my formation better than anyone could have imagined. But it is vital to have experimentation and change – we cannot live in a vacuum. And anyway, the crippling cost of re-unification affects every aspect of our lives and footballers are people too.†The Fallout The German FA were appalled at their team’s performance in the Confederation Cup, their anger and dismay magnified by the fact that the tournament had taken place on home soil. Stefan was invited to explain his actions at an extraordinary general meeting of the Board and he had to be at his most persuasive to hang on to his job. After a very narrow vote in his favour he realised that he needed to be a little more circumspect in his actions and that he would have to get a couple of decent results under his belt. His task was made easier by the fact that the next major tournament was the 2006 World Cup and Germany had already qualified as hosts. The FA had arranged a few warm-up games in advance of the tournament so a win here and there should be enough to keep him in the job until then. By naming a squad of established players and using fairly sensible tactics Stefan engineered wins over Hungary and Austria. With the FA and the press being lulled into a false sense of security the fake Klinsmann began planning his assault on the World Cup. Towards The World Cup There was great excitement in the German press as the draw was made for the group stages of the World Cup. The hosts were placed in Group G alongside the USA, Romania and Ghana and the general consensus was that the team should have no great trouble in securing qualification. There was one final warm-up game scheduled in advance of the tournament and by coincidence it would be against fellow Group G side Romania. Stefan decided that it was time to wind up the press once more and his squad announcement for the friendly certainly had the desired effect. “You may not be aware of my deep interest in ancient Chinese philosophy but it is a subject that has fascinated me for some time now. Strange reading for a mere football man, you might think, but not all football men are unintelligent. During the Han dynasty, around 200 BC, the various strands of Chinese philosophical thinking were organised into a number of schools. Some are relatively well known. For instance the YinYang philosophers studied the nature of the cosmos and attempted to account for all of its changes in terms of two fundamental principles, the Yin and the Yang. There is also the school of the Dao or Way, which attempted to understand the ultimate principles of reality and to offer a fundamentally different concept of social organization. But my personal interest is in a concept based around the thinking of Wan Hung Lo who conceived the idea of Wu Hsing or the five material agents (wood, fire, earth, metal and water). Accordingly I have made my squad selection based on the German translation of those elements (Holz, Feuer, Erde, Metall and Wasser) and I have selected players whose names contain these words. I am confident that this will tap into the power of this fundamental philosophy, bringing great harmony to the team and harnessing the awesome power of nature to great effect.†Having been reassured by Stefan’s selection for the last couple of games the press listened open-mouthed to his latest bizarre pronouncement before all hell broke loose. Stefan made a mad dash for the exit and hid himself away until match day. The game itself started well, Romania scoring virtually straight from the kick-off. But then striker Michael Holzer scored twice before half time and Stefan was forced to bring him off because he was playing too well, Thomas Holz replacing him. At the same time he removed keeper Heinz Scholz who was also proving to be unacceptably competent. During the second half midfielders Mario Scholze and Daniel Farenholz were also replaced by Christian Holzer and Stefan Holzinger as they were also playing too well. With 20 minutes remaining Stefan made a last throw of the dice, removing substitute keeper Tammo Feuerherdt who was also proving to be half decent, and replacing him with central defender Soren Holz. That finally did the trick, Romania equalising late on – a draw was better than a win but Stefan was still unhappy with the final result. World Cup Fever As the opening game of the World Cup finals approached, there was feverish speculation in the German press regarding the squad that the Klinsmann doppelganger would announce for the most important tournament in the country’s history. As host nation anything less than an appearance in the final would be regarded as failure and Stefan was acutely aware of this. By the time he made his squad announcement a new set of FIFA rankings had been produced and the Berlin Branch of the Tartan Army were delighted to see that Germany had dropped down to 29th place. The pressroom was a buzz of noise as Stefan approached the dais at the front of the room with several sheets of paper clutched in his hand. To the huge relief of the assembled media, Stefan’s squad for the World Cup was, by his standards at least, very conventional. <pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre">Name Club Caps Goals Value Balitsch, H Leverkusen 4 0 €7.75M Ballack, M FC Bayern 43 16 €41.5M Bierofka, D Leverkusen 7 1 €4.8M Deisler, S FC Bayern 29 4 €32M Freier, P Bochum 11 1 €5.5M Frings, T Dortmund 25 2 €22M Fritz, C Frankfurt 0 0 €2.4M Huth, R Chelsea 0 0 €6.5M Jeremies, J Hertha BSC 49 1 €8.25M Kahn, O FC Bayern 69 0 €3.4M Kehl, S Dortmund 18 1 €10M Klose, M Schalke 04 38 21 €19M Kuranyi, K VfB Stuttgart 11 1 €17.5M Lauth, B Chelsea 5 1 €10.25M Leschinski, B HSV 0 0 €2.4M Metzelder, C Dortmund 24 0 €24M Nowotny, J Leverkusen 45 0 €6.5M Rahn, C HSV 10 1 €10.25M Rau, T FC Bayern 13 1 €4.1M Rost, F Werder Bremen 5 0 €4.7M Schindzielorz, S 1.FC Köln 0 0 €5M Wörns, C Chelsea 56 0 €1.1M</pre> However, in his short summary after the squad was revealed, there lay a hint of things to come. “To be successful in a major international tournament it is necessary to deploy tactical flexibility. The modern game is a squad game and each member of the squad must be prepared to do whatever is necessary to ensure the success of the team. During the forthcoming tournament I will be taking tactical flexibility to a new level and I can assure you that there will be some surprises in store for our opponents and fans alike.†Thanks toby The Tournament The opening game against Romania started in conventional enough fashion – a strong team selection taking the field and a sensible 4-4-2 formation adopted. Then on the half hour, with the game still scoreless, Stefan received an unexpected bonus. Right back Hanno Balitsch received his second yellow card and Germany were reduced to 10 men. Sensing an opportunity he reshuffled his formation, moving striker Miroslav Klose to right back to the Schalke player’s obvious confusion. Romania scored what proved to be the winning goal a few minutes before half time and Stefan was spared the need to tinker further with his formation. In his post-match press conference he explained that moving Klose back into defence was an example of the tactical flexibility that he demanded from his team. For the game against the USA Stefan raised some eyebrows when he replaced the suspended Balitsch with Dortmund midfielder Sebastian Kehl, once again citing tactical flexibility. With 60 minutes played and the game still scoreless, he made some tactical changes. Midfielder Jens Jeremies replaced striker Klose and central defender Jens Nowotny came on for left-winger Daniel Bierofka. This successfully reduced his team’s attacking threat and the game ended in a 0-0 stalemate. Entering the final game against Ghana, Romania were already assured of qualification with two wins. The USA were second on 4 points and a draw would see them through. Germany had just one point and their fate was not solely in their own hands. Stefan decided to field an orthodox team and save any radical changes until he saw how the remaining group game was progressing. After half an hour Germany were two goals ahead and the USA were losing to Romania but still held second place. When Germany scored a third goal in stoppage time at the end of the first half Stefan decided that drastic action was required during the interval. Chelsea centre back Robert Huth was having a stormer, having scored twice, so he was replaced by attacking midfielder Diesler with Torsten Frings coming on for striker Kuranyi. A 4th German goal just after the restart prompted another change, a clearly bewildered Michael Ballack swapping places with keeper Oliver Kahn. Unfortunately the Ghanaians were so inept that even that change made no difference, the Africans failing to register a shot on target for the entire 90 minutes. So despite Stefan’s best attempts his German team, aided by a 2-0 defeat for the USA, had staged a remarkable comeback to qualify for the second round on goal difference. The good news was that they would face the highly fancied France in their next game. Stefan made a brief statement to the press in advance of the game. “I am delighted with the way in which my players have adopted to my mantra of tactical flexibility. By forcing players to operate in unfamiliar roles it enhances their tactical awareness and improves our capabilities as a team. I have been widely criticised for switching Ballack and Kahn in our last game but I believe that it proved to be an unqualified success, giving both players a taste of what may be necessary in extreme circumstances. And by the way, Der Drei Lederhosen continue to inspire both the fans and the players alike. I will be extending this Munich Beer Hall feeling even further by insisting that all of the players drink a large stein of finest Bavarian ale whilst the national anthem is played before the next game.†Stefan’s cause was helped by injures to Huth, Jeremies and Nowotny, giving him ample excuse to adopt a more unorthodox lineup for the France game and he played reserve keeper Frank Rost in the centre of defence. An injury to Balitsch during the first half allowed him to bring forward Paul Freier on to replace the fullback but still his team reached the break with the game scoreless. That changed when Thierry Henry scored just after the restart and he was able to see the game out with no further changes. Germany were eliminated - and humiliated – the press were baying for blood and this time there was no escape for Stefan. Without even being given an opportunity to defend himself, he was fired. I know flip, but what can you do Some People Are Never Satisfied When the dust had settled Stefan made his way surreptitiously to the safe house where the real Klinsmann was being held. He expected that the kidnap victim would shortly be released and life could return to something approaching normal. The conspirators reasoned that even if Klinsmann did go to the authorities, no one would believe his bizarre tale, assuming that he was either completely mad or that he had invented it all as a way of avoiding blame for the entire fiasco. But the Berlin Branch of the Tartan Army were not yet satisfied. Yes, the German team had been embarrassed, having to endure a humiliating exit in the most important tournament ever staged on German soil, but they wanted more. They wanted to leave a lasting impression and for that they needed to repeat their scam one more time. A week or so after Stefan’s sacking, the German FA appointed a new national team coach and the plotters wanted to continue with their Cunning Plan. After intensive discussions with Stefan he was somewhat reluctantly persuaded to go undercover for one last time. He would repeat his ordeal of surgery and would take on another identity – he would become MATTHIAS SAMMER. Sorry about that HD The Road To Euro 2008 Germany had been drawn in Group 4 alongside Andorra, Latvia, Poland, Russia and Slovakia and would begin their campaign with two home games in quick succession. When the counterfeit Sammer took to the podium, still swathed in bandages, he could sense that the press was immediately sympathetic to him. The announcement he made to unveil his squad for the opening games soon put a stop to that. “My predecessor made so many glaring mistakes in his time in charge, but in my opinion his biggest error came in his squad selection for the recent World Cup fiasco. His reliance on home-based players proved to be disastrous, culminating in an early exit from the tournament and his own demise. I intend to pursue a different course entirely by selecting only those players of German nationality that play outside of our homeland. In my opinion our top domestic players have become too comfortable on their inflated salaries and complacent in their approach towards the game. I have scoured Europe in search of Germans who have had the courage and the motivation to leave their native land in search of fame and fortune, and these are the players who will be rewarded internationally from now on.†The squad in full <pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre">Name Club Kling,S Arsenal Dhompirom,G AstonVilla Huber,E AustriaVienna Solga,D AustriaVienna Langer,M Blackburn Lauth,B Chelsea Erhan,A Fenerbahçe Hamann,D Liverpool DiGregorio,B Perugia Hofmann,S RapidVienna Henning,R Sporting Ziege,C Tottenham Jancker,C Udinese Volz,M Arsenal Hasse,H AustriaVienna Rost,T AustriaVienna Keidel,R Blackburn Huth,R Chelsea Niemeyer,P FCTwente Berkant,G Galatasaray Thomas,A Paris-SG Nerlinger,C Rangers Wiese,T RealSociedad Hitzlsperger,T Tottenham Federico,G Udinese Da Costa, N FC Twente</pre> The response from the media was an instantaneous uproar as the implications of Stefan’s statement hit home. Trying to make like the invisible man, he made his exit and awaited the reaction to his team’s display in their forthcoming games. Stefan was hopeful that the poor quality of his players would mean that he would not have to get too bizarre with his tactics or playing positions but when his team went into half time leading Latvia 1-0 he clearly needed a re-think. Too many of the misfits that he had selected were playing well – who would have thought that Arsenal’s Moritz Volz would make a decent right back! But despite three changes at half time the situation got worse – a stoppage time goal giving the Germans a 2-0 win. Some changes in personnel saw an improvement against Russia until the Germans took the lead through an own goal with 20 minutes remaining. Fortunately, the visitors managed a very late equaliser to rob the Germans of two points. The announcement by the bogus Sammer that he would no longer be considering home-based players had produced an interesting reaction amongst some of the senior German stars. Oliver Kahn and Jens Nowotny both announced their retirement from international football. Younger stars such as Ballack and Deisler made noises about moving abroad. The German squad for the trip to Poland featured several new faces due to a number of injury withdrawals and Stefan was hopeful of securing a suitably poor result. He decided to deploy an ultra-defensive sweeper system modelled on the Italian Catenaccio style. With no natural sweeper in the squad Christian Worns was deployed in that position and performed as poorly as Stefan had hoped. His plan was almost undone by a superb performance from young Blackburn keeper Michael Langer but a swap with Tim Wiese of Real Sociedad and a second-half penalty did the trick, resulting in a 1-0 win to the Poles. It’s Muller Time There was a gap of several months before Germany’s next game, a friendly in Singapore, and at the end of 2006 the new FIFA Rankings were published. Stefan was delighted to see that the German national team had now fallen to 43rd place. He was keen to keep the decline in their fortunes going and thought long and hard about his next squad selection. He finally settled on his players and made his usual short announcement to the assembled press. “We are about to undertake a long journey to the mysterious East, to the Orient, where we will represent our country with pride. I have decided on a squad selection that makes it clear to our hosts just where we are coming from, that we are German and proud to be so and proud to represent our fine country. And what is more German than that most German of names, Muller? Did not one of the finest goalscorers the world has ever seen not sport that very same name? So it seems entirely sensible to have selected 26 players who all share that fine surname.†<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre">Name Club Müller, A Oberhausen Müller, B SC Freiburg Müller, B Neuenkirchen Müller, C Offenbach Müller, C Jena II Müller, C Augsburg Müller, D Gladbach Müller, D Lichtenberg Müller, D Siegen Müller, F Paderborn II Müller, G Aue Müller, G Jena Müller, H Düsseldorf Müller, J Wald-Michelbach Müller, K FC Bayern Müller, K Karlsruhe Müller, L Unterhaching Müller, L Karlsruhe Müller, N Verl Müller, R Aue Müller, S Verl Müller, S SC Freiburg Müller, S Dresden-Nord Müller, S Wolfsburg Müller, T Eisbachtal Müller, T Jena</pre> Stefan did not hang around to face the hostile press response but instead headed straight to the airport and flew to Singapore early to enjoy a little sightseeing before the team arrived. His team did reasonably well, winning 1-0 as Stefan resisted making any unusual tactical changes – the look on the faces of the reporters when he unveiled his team full of Mullers was reward enough. Thanks chaps A Right Mullering Germany’s Euro 2008 group got back into action at the end of March with games in Slovakia and Andorra. Stefan decided to stick with his squad of Mullers and although he had several withdrawals because of injury he was able to draft in a ready supply of replacement Mullers. The game in Slovakia ended all square at 1-1 and there were 4 more withdrawals in the few days before the trip to Andorra. Stefan was now scraping the bottom of his Muller barrel but still managed to find enough players. A 1-0 win was obtained to maintain Germany’s 4th place in the group. When the squad flew back home Stefan made a short announcement to the waiting press. “I am very happy with our performance in two difficult games. We were perhaps unfortunate in Slovakia not to have taken full points and I would single out the performance of Muller and Muller although Muller was perhaps a little disappointing. We looked more dangerous up front once substitute Muller came on and he took his goal very well. We were forced into some changes in Andorra with Muller, Muller, Muller and Muller all joining the squad to replace the injured Muller, Muller, Muller and Muller. Muller, Muller and Muller all impressed and it was the right decision to rest Muller initially, as we saw when he came off the bench to score the winning goal.†There were two more vital games scheduled for June – first Germany would travel to Russia and then Poland would come to Berlin. Helped by an early sending off, the Muller bunch gained an unexpected 4-1 win in Russia and then the team drew 0-0 with Poland. After that match Stefan had the unusual experience of addressing journalists who were not all openly hostile to him. “The result in Russia was excellent, especially considering that we lost captain Muller to an early injury. Muller was absolutely outstanding and his two goals were world class. Muller and Muller were once again an inspiration to their team-mates and the performance of substitutes Muller and Muller was very encouraging. Our performance against Poland was not quite so good but it was always going to be difficult playing the group leaders.†Germany’s next action was in September with a trip to Latvia and a game at home to Andorra. The opening game finished scoreless leaving Germany’s qualification in the balance. With two group games left they were 4th place but could still secure a playoff place. Andorra were beaten 1-0 but the other results in the group meant that the top three teams all had 19 points, three more than the Germans, and it would take an extraordinary sequence of scores for Stefan’s team to grab the runners-up place. Stefan sent out his team of Mullers for the visit of Slovakia in what would almost certainly be his last game in charge and watched them play out a goalless draw. But despite his failure to qualify for Euro 2008 he was amazed to find that the German FA did not sack him and he was retained to guide them to qualification in the 2010 World Cup. Football – A Black And White Thing Amazed that he was still in employment after failing to qualify for the European Championships, Stefan entered 2008 determined to take full advantage of his good fortune. Having a team full of Mullers was fun but for the World Cup qualification campaign he needed to be even more creative. The new FIFA Rankings showed that Germany had slipped just two places to 45th – not good enough by a long chalk. There was a friendly in Australia scheduled for March, which would give an ideal opportunity for a suitably poor result if he could come up with an appropriate squad selection. “So before I formally announce my squad for the forthcoming game in Australia, I would like to explain my thinking behind the selection. Once again we find ourselves travelling to the other side of the world and it is extremely important that we keep our German identity to the fore. Now given that our team colours of white shirts and black shorts are known all over the planet I think that it is very appropriate to keep that theme amongst the players. You will therefore find that all of my squad share their names with either our white tops (Weiß) or our black bottoms (Schwarz).†<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre">Name Club Schwarz, D SC Freiburg Schwarz, D Villingen Schwarz, F Lichterfelde Schwarz, H SC Freiburg Schwarz, M Gladbach (A) Schwarz, M Braunschweig Schwarz, M FC Bayern Schwarz, M Grimma Schwarz, S Trier Schwarz, S Schalke 04 Under 23s Weiß, A Lübeck II Weiß, C Hordel Weiß, C Schwerin Weiß, D Ratingen Weiß, F Arm. Hannover Weiß, H Rheine Weiß, M 1860 München Under 23s Weiß, M VfB Hüls Weiß, M Elmshorn Weiß, M Ahlen Weiß, M Aachen Under 23s Weiß, R Erfurt Weiß, S Aachen Under 23s Weiß, T Lichtenberg Weiß, T Flensburg 08</pre> Stefan was optimistic that his selection should produce the desired result – in his 25-man squad he had four goalkeepers, two badly injured players, a couple of 15-year-olds and only one player with any previous international experience. But once again his team confounded his expectations, and despite playing all four of his keepers in outfield positions they somehow produced a 0-0 draw. Thank you gentlemen - now time for some schoolboy humour I feel. The Rude Boys And The World Cup Shortly after their return from Australia the draw was made for the World Cup qualifiers and Germany found themselves in Group 1 alongside Serbia & Montenegro, Greece, Wales, Cyprus and Malta – a mouth-watering draw that gave ample room for some humiliating defeats. The campaign commenced with two games in early September – away to Serbia and at home against Cyprus – with a trip to Wales the next month. It was with great delight that Stefan announced his squad for the remaining games of the year. Goalkeepers Malte Bonertz Hans-Jorg Butt Dominik Wohlfarth Defenders Christian Bumberger Rene Bogesits Florian Dick Volker Grimminger Michael Kokocinski Michael Wanke Martin Amedick Randy Gottwald Markus Lüdicke Carsten Wohlfarth Midfielders Mirko Dickhaut Peer Kluge Tim Kokoska Janusz Marek Dennis Viszkok Sascha Iffarth Guido Spork Marcel Abshagen Tobias Büttner Forwards Ufuk Cicek Benjamin Titz Charly Kuntz Steffen Wohlfarth Following a 2-0 defeat in Serbia, Stefan made a brief announcement to the assembled press. “It was a disappointing performance today, I have to admit. We weren’t soild enough at the back although Butt was very tight. Titz looked exposed up front and Abshagen looked tired late on. However Dick was hard and stood up well but Wanke seemed to be playing his own game.†A few days later Cyprus visited the BayArena in Leverkusen and after a 2-0 win to Germany the press were a more forgiving mood. “I left out Dick and Titz and I think that made a noticeable difference. Whilst not the most mobile, Bogesits is certainly dependable and you’ll always know where he will be. Young Ufuk was a natural ‘in the hole’ although Dickhaut put in a flaccid performance. Wohlfarth blew hot and cold and Grimminger may not be pretty in midfield but he proved to be very effective.†The final game of the year was a visit to Wales and with Michael Wanke missing with a groin strain Fatih Cimsit was drafted in as a replacement. In the days leading up to the game Guido Spork also suffered a knock so Erol Arslan came into the squad. Stefan could barely hide his delight after a 4-0 thrashing but he did make time to address the media once more. “Perhaps our problem up front is that Titz is just not big enough and although Peer made a stream of accurate passes Kuntz was left wide open. We all know that Randy Gottwald is an excitable player and to be honest Amedick was made to look silly. Kokocinski was up and down all day, Arslan was too far back and Fatih Cimsit just looked out of shape. But I am confident that the situation can be retrieved and that come next year the team will be firing on all cylinders once more.†The first game of 2009 was a friendly at home to Estonia and Stefan introduced a number of new names into his 23-man squad. Sadly he was hit with a number of withdrawals due to injury. This robbed him of the services of players such as Sebastian Popp, Ronny Rhode, Tobias Willi, Tobias Wurm and Florian Pinz thereby robbing him of the opportunity to use a whole host of awful puns in his post-match summary. On the positive side he still had the likes of Jan Sandmann, Justus Six, Patrick Prang, Dennis Puhl, Christian Stuff, Stephan Tingler, Jens Luck, Markus Rusch, Michael Ströll and Christian Quack. The game ended scoreless and, being just a friendly he decided to dispense with his comments to the press and save his witty wordplay for a more important game. World Cup qualification continued with two games in quick succession – at home to Malta and away to Greece. Stefan was able to bring in all of the previously injured players thereby giving himself some superb punning opportunites. The Maltese achieved a creditable 0-0 draw, thanks mainly to some creative use of out of position players by Stefan. The game in Greece was not going to plan when Germany found themselves 2-1 ahead with 10 minutes to play but some inspired substitutions turned the game around and the Greeks finally ran out 4-2 winners. “Luck was not on our side in these games and I still can’t understand why Jens played so poorly. Rusch was in too much of a hurry whilst Ströll seemed to lack urgency. At the back Wurm was turned far too easily, Willi was pulled all over the place, Sandmann looked half asleep and Rhode still has a long way to go. On the positive side, Tingler was electric, Stuff covered most of the pitch, Pinz gave the opposition some needle, Justus Six did the work of five men and Popp goes the weasel. With Puhl pushing up, Prang crashing into the defence and Quack ducking and diving we have real hope for the future.â€

DORTMUND, Germany — Borussia Dortmund captain Marco Reus’ injury is not as bad as initially feared, meaning he should still feature at the World Cup for Germany. Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl said Sunday the player “will be out for three to four weeks and will then hopefully be available for us again.” Germany coach Hansi Flick included Reus in his squad for upcoming international games against Hungary and England and was counting on the attacking midfielder as a key member of his World Cup squad. The World Cup starts in Qatar on Nov. 20. Germany plays Japan in Doha three days later. Spain and Costa Rica are also in the group. The 33-year-old Reus was taken off on a stretcher in the first half of Dortmund’s Ruhr derby win against Schalke on Saturday with what looked like a serious ankle injury. Reus was in tears after bending his right ankle awkwardly in a challenge for the ball. “It was a shock for us yesterday when we saw the pictures,” Kehl said. “I can give a little good news today. The tests we carried out on Saturday didn’t show any break. It’s a ligament injury in the ankle.” Reus missed Germany’s World Cup win in 2014 with an ankle injury sustained in a warm-up game, and a groin injury ruled him out of the 2016 European Championship. He played in Germany’s unsuccessful World Cup defense in 2018 but skipped the next European Championship to recover after his season with Dortmund. He has scored 15 goals in 48 games for Germany. Dortmund’s next game is against Cologne on Oct. 1. ___ More AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccer and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports

Germany had a deep run in the 2002 World Cup joint-hosted by Japan and South Korea 20 years ago, and they were unfortunate to not win the whole thing as they finished as runners-up. They lost to Brazil 2-0 in the International Stadium Yokohama in Kanagawa, Japan from a Ronaldo Nazario brace. The next World Cup that they were finalists in was at Brazil 2014, and they won. A lot of time has passed since then, and if you’re curious enough to think of the whereabouts of Germany’s 2002 team, then you’ve come to the right place. Let’s begin! Note: Teams in brackets show which club the player was playing for at the time of the 2002 World Cup. Part 2: Subs and Reserves Oliver Bierhoff (AS Monaco and Chievo) Bierhoff is most known for scoring a brace – the second being the first ever “golden goal” in the history of international football – against the Czech Republic in the final of Euro 1996 held in England. Bierhoff retired after the 2002 World Cup, and now serves as the technical director of the German national team. Gerald Asamoah (Schalke 04) Asamoah mainly played as a reserve for the international team from 2001 to 2006. The Ghanaian-born forward moved to Germany in 1990 and worked his way up from the Hannover 96 reserves to the first team at Schalke where he’s become a fan favorite. Asamoah is currently part of the Schalke first team staff. Christian Ziege (Tottenham Hotspur) Ziege was a Euro 1996 winner and played in the 1998 and 2002 World Cups and the 2000 and 2004 editions of the Euros. An attacking left wingback and dead ball specialist, he played for Tottenham at club level and last managed FC Pingzau in Austria. He then became their sporting director. Jens Lehmann (Borussia Dortmund) Lehmann was Kahn’s understudy in the World Cup. After moving to Arsenal in 2003, he cemented himself as one of the legends of the game as he played all 38 league games in Arsenal’s “Invincibles” season in 2003-04. Two years later, he would become the first ever player (and goalkeeper) to be sent off in a Champions League Final in the game against FC Barcelona played held in Paris, France in 2006. Lehmann was sacked as a representative of the Hertha Berlin supervisory board in 2021 after a racist remark about former player Dennis Aogo, who was a pundit and TV expert for Sky at the time, and has kept a low profile since. Hans-Jörg Butt (Bayer Leverkusen) Butt was the deep reserve for Kahn and Lehmann and maintained this tradition in his later years at Bayern. Butt was known for taking penalties and was Bayer Leverkusen’s undisputed starter, being in net for their 1-0 loss to Real Madrid in the 2002 Champions League Final in Hampden Park, Glasgow, Scotland. Butt was the head of Bayern’s youth setup in 2012 but left after a few days in charge. Marko Rehmer (Hertha Berlin) Rehmer was Hertha Berlin’s undisputed starter at center-back as they qualified for the UEFA Cup (present day UEFA Europa League) in his first four seasons with the club. He is now the managing director of “Inteamsports”, who have handball players and football players under contract. Frank Bauman (Werder Bremen) Bauman was a mainstay for Werder Bremen in the 10 years he played for them after previously playing for FC Nürnberg. Bauman is now Bremen’s head of sport. Sebastian Kehl (Borussia Dortmund) The former midfield general played two games in 2002 and will be Borussia Dortmund’s sporting director in the 2022/23 season. Lars Ricken (Borussia Dortmund) A Dortmund man through and through, the ex-player who played as a midfielder is a director for his former club. He also scored in the 3-1 win over Juventus in the 1997 Champions League Final held in Munich’s Olympiastadion, which was Bayern’s home ground before they moved to the Allianz Arena in 2005. Michael Ballack (Bayer Leverkusen) Ballack was most notable for playing at Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern, and Chelsea. Ballack was integral to Germany’s run to the final in 2002, which led to Bayern fending off Real Madrid for his signature. Ballack is currently TV expert for Prime Video, DAZN, and on Magenta TV for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Jörg Böhme (Schalke 04) Böhme was an unused player in 2002 and was most recently sacked from managing Spvg Steinhagen. Carsten Jancker (Bayern Munich) Jancker’s best spell at club level was for Bayern Munich from 1996 to 2002. At international level, he was rather unsuccessful because he flourished in a two-striker system, something Germany haven’t done as much in 2002; at Bayern he was partnered by Brazilian striker Giovane Élber.

Black & White & Read All Over
https://www.blackwhitereadallover.com/2018/5/17/17365390/juventus-gianluigi-buffon-2018-serie-a-personal-ode
Editor’s note: This post was originally published when Gianluigi Buffon said goodbye to Juventus for the first time in 2018. With Buffon expected to announce his retirement before the week is over, we decided to re-publish this piece as an ode to the best goalkeeper there has ever been and there ever will be. We all knew it would come. We never wanted it to, but we knew it would have to. Earlier in the day on Thursday, Gianluigi Buffon took to the microphone at a press conference and announced that Saturday’s season finale against Hellas Verona will be is last game in a Juventus uniform. It has been the assumption of pretty much everyone that this will be his final season in football, but there is less finality to this departure than most of us were expecting — he has reserved the decision as to whether he will retire or play elsewhere until after the emotion of Saturday has died down. That’s his prerogative, but it would certainly be nice if this didn’t end up being a repeat of the departure of Alessandro Del Piero, albeit handled far better from a PR standpoint. Regardless of what might happen next week or next season, this is an emotional day for a lot of Juventini, and certainly for myself. It is no exaggeration to say that Gianluigi Buffon has been the reference point for my entire relationship with the game of soccer, and his announcement has taken me back quite a ways — almost 13 years, to be exact. I didn’t follow soccer as a kid. I was offered the chance to play as a young child, but somehow my 6-year-old brain regarded the idea of playing soccer as a threat to my nascent baseball fandom and rejected it out of hand. Frankly, baseball remains the sport I love above all others, but I look back on that decision now with great regret. For most of my childhood and adolescence, I was pretty much a two-sport guy: baseball and American football, with a sprinkling of college basketball come March Madness time. When I did think about soccer, it was as a foreign curiosity. I was tangentially aware of the 1998 World Cup, mainly because, at age nine, I was tickled pink by Andres Cantor’s trademark goal call on the Spanish coverage. The next World Cup in 2002 wasn’t even on my radar. That all changed when I was 16. Both sides of my family have been in America for more than a century, but we have always identified strongly with our Italian ancestry and have made great efforts to seek out and visit the places where our family originated from. Because of this, whenever I watched an international sporting competition, I always kept my eye on Italian competitors. I don’t remember what it was that first drew my attention to the 2006 World Cup, but the Italian national team started drawing me in like a magnet. I watched most of the street fight between Italy and the United States, and saw the Round of 16 game against Australia from whistle to whistle — probably the first time I had ever done so. Whenever I watched the team, I became drawn to the goalkeeper. Buffon was at the supreme height of his powers at that time, and I knew greatness when I saw it. I also probably saw the parallels between goalkeeping and baseball’s catcher position, which I had just begun to play full-time on my youth teams. (To this day I’m told when I play pickup soccer that my goalkeeping style is rather unorthodox, and when I mention my baseball position I tend to get an understanding smile.) Regardless of why, it was Buffon that I gravitated to more than any other player on that team. That was solidified by one moment during the semifinal against Germany. Of course, there are many reasons why that game is legendary. But just as important and memorable to me as gol di Grosso is a moment that came about nine minutes earlier. It was the moment I truly became hooked on this sport — and the moment I became a Juventino. It was the 112th minute, and Sebastian Kehl had found Lukas Podolski in space down the left channel. Podolski was 21 then, still young and full of promise, and he he had plenty of time to load up and fire with that howitzer of a left foot he had from point-blank range. Buffon stabbed a hand into the air and tipped the ball over the bar — an incredible game-saving parry. It was that moment that my inner voice said “Whatever team that man is on is my team.” I was totally ignorant of calciopoli, which was raging throughout the entire tournament—indeed, the initial pre-appeal punishments had been handed down that day—or anything else. All I knew was Gianluigi Buffon was my favorite soccer player, and whatever club he played for would be the club I would cheer for. From that day on, Juventus was my club, and I’ve come to live and die by them in the same way I do my equally beloved Philadelphia Phillies and Eagles — all because of Gianluigi Buffon. There are so many reasons that I admire Gigi the way I do. Of course, his decision to stay with the team in the wake of the calciopoli farce has endeared him to many fans and made him synonymous with the club. His passion and will to win are infectious. Even at 40 years old, his fire burned white-hot. As he pursued the Champions League — the only club trophy he’s played for and never won — this season, his desire was palpable, whether he was grabbing Giorgio Chiellini by the jersey after a clearance against Tottenham or screaming at Michael Oliver during the debacle in Madrid. He wanted to win, and he wanted to win with Juve. The leadership he has exerted over this club, especially after he took over the captaincy full-time from Alessandro Del Piero, demands respect. He has served in that role for the last six years — a mark only six other men have ever equalled. Anyone who wants to be a leader, in sport or any other arena, should consider him required study. Those abilities reached their zenith in October of 2015-16, when he delivered what I like to call the Sassuolo Address. After a 1-0 loss away to Sassuolo that dumped Juve to 12th place, he publicly dressed down the team in his post-game comments, demanding better from them. The result? The team won their next 15 games and 25 of 26, going from 12th to first and winning a fifth consecutive Scudetto at a canter. Also admirable was the way his playing style evolved as he got older and his physical abilities began to wane. He went from an instinctual, at times rash goalkeeper to someone who had mastered the mental aspect of goalkeeping. He made up for diminished reflexes with masterful positioning, and marshaled his defense so well that he often didn’t need to make saves at all. But perhaps the most important thing of all is something far more etherial than the black and white of what happens on the pitch. The 2013 revelation that he suffered from depression in the early 2000s went beyond football. That someone with a life that, outwardly, seemed perfect could still go through the ravages of mental illness — and that he could be so open about it and about the treatment he sought — was important for many sufferers of such conditions. That includes myself — I struggle with Social Anxiety Disorder on a daily basis. One of my closest friends, who I coincidentally met watching a Juventus game, credits Buffon’s openness about his condition for her decision to seek help for her own depression. More than once she has openly said that that inspiration changed her life. Take all of that together, and you have the reason why this man reaches such high status for me, and for so many other Juventus fans all over the world. He has become a symbol of this team, on the level of Boniperti, Scirea, and Del Piero. I could go through the statistics, but they’re really immaterial. Buffon is beloved, and will be beloved, because of who he is as much as what he’s accomplished. All of us will get emotional when he leaves the field for the final time — perhaps taking a lap around the stadium the way his old teammate Del Piero did six years ago. Tears will be shed. But it will also be a treasured moment — a chance to say goodbye to a man that has meant so much to us — and certainly will for a long time to come. Grazie, capitano. Fino alla fine.

A highly successful era is drawing to a close, but another is set to begin next summer. Michael Zorc, 58, who has spent a total of 43 years with BVB as a player and member of the sporting management, will be succeeded as sporting director by Sebastian Kehl, 41, on 1 July 2022. Kehl today signed a contract until 30 June 2025. Aside from a brief spell away that he devoted to his studies, among other things, Kehl has been a Black & Yellow for almost 20 years. He lifted the Bundesliga title in 2002, 2011 and 2012, and won the double as well. After hanging up his boots in the summer of 2015, the long-term team captain completed a management course with UEFA and acquired his A Licence as a coach. Since the beginning of the 2018/29 season, he has been the head of Borussia Dortmund’s players department. Twelve months from now, the former international and 2002 World Cup runner-up will take over all of Michael Zorc’s present responsibilities. “I am happy that we have once again succeeded in keeping a deserved title-winner at the club on a long-term basis beyond the end of his playing career. Sebastian Kehl has done a good job in recent years and has already commenced preparations for his future role as BVB’s sporting director. Of course, he has big shoes to fill, but we are convinced that Sebastian has what it takes to do the job,” explained Borussia Dortmund’s chief executive officer Hans-Joachim Watzke. “The working relationship between Sebastian Kehl and myself has been shaped by great trust from day one,” Michael Zorc declared, before adding, “Sebastian has become gradually involved in all the relevant fields of a sporting director. I greatly value his work. The fact that the management has now decided to make him my successor in the summer of 2022 is, in my view, a sensible and logical decision. I’m already looking forward to working together in my final year as BVB’s sporting director.” “I have felt very closely connected to this great club for almost 20 years now and am proud to be given the opportunity to shape the sporting future of Borussia Dortmund in a position of responsibility starting from 2022,” said Sebastian Kehl. “As a sporting director, creating the conditions for BVB to continue being successful in the future is both a challenge and an obligation for me,” he added. “I would like to thank those responsible – especially Hans-Joachim Watzke and Michael Zorc – for their trust. For now, though, I’m looking forward to working with Michael on our present goals and on current matters and challenges.” (Borussia Dortmund)

Funny, because he was one behind coach Jurgen Klinsmann's tally of 11 World Cup goals." BBC Sport presenter Gary Lineker "I'm delighted Luis Figo got on to the pitch for his final appearance. It was a great ball for Nuno Gomes' goal." BBC Sport analyst Martin O'Neill FULL-TIME: A double from Bastian Schweinsteiger helps Germany finish third at the 2006 World Cup. 88 mins: GOAL Germany 3-1 Portugal Nuno Gomes scores after heading in Luis Figo's peach of a ball from the right. 84 mins: Cristiano Ronaldo hits a tremendous free-kick from at least 35 yards out that forces Oliver Kahn to punch the ball away. 82 mins: Nuno Gomes comes close to scoring for Portugal but his effort bounces off Oliver Kahn's boot from five yards. 79 mins: There will be no hat-trick for Bastian Schweinsteiger who is replaced by Thomas Hitzlsperger. 78 mins: GOAL Germany 3-0 Portugal Bastian Schweinsteiger scores his second goal of the night with another spanking strike. He gives Ricardo no chance from 25 yards. 77 mins: Luis Figo comes on to make, possibly, his last international appearance for Portugal - the ineffective Pauleta makes way. 75 mins: Portugal have not scored for 352 minutes. 73 mins: Former Formula One champion Michael Schumacher is in the stands watching his German compatriots.

The striker does everything right inside the penalty area except for produce a shot to test Oliver Kahn. The effort summed up his World Cup... poor. 51 mins: Marcell Jansen fouls Maniche on the edge of the area. Simao's free-kick dips, but dips too late to trouble Oliver Kahn in the Germany goal. 48 mins: Great play by Germany on the left-wing but Marcell Jansen's low cross into the area fails to find a team-mate. 2100 BST: Portugal's Costinha comes off and is replaced by Armando Petit. Germany kick off the second half. "I hope it gets better." BBC Sport analyst Alan Hansen. PLAYER RATER: In a half-time poll, 43% of you say Cristiano Ronaldo will be best remembered from this World Cup for his run-in with Wayne Rooney and 38% for his gamesmanship in general. Having said that, perhaps the Player Rater public have forgiven or forgotten Ronaldo's run-in with Rooney, as he leads the way in the half-time ratings in this match with a mark of 9.32. Statistic: Portugal have gone 322 minutes without scoring. "I think this is the most meaningless match in the history of football." BBC Sport analyst Martin O'Neill HALF-TIME: Not the greatest spectacle to be fair. 46 mins: Cristiano Ronaldo produces a few 'lollipops' on the edge of the Germany area before going to ground. He does not win a free-kick or the support of the crowd inside the stadium. 43 mins: Germany's midfield talisman Michael Ballack lets out a yawn on the squad bench. 38 mins: Cristiano Ronaldo's trickery on the pitch sometimes impresses, on this occasion his attempted backheel flick arrived at the feet of Germany's Miroslav Klose. That may have cheered up England's Wayne Rooney. 37 mins: A right-sided corner from Portugal's Deco eludes everybody as it flashes across goal. 29 mins: Forget the fan-fests in Germany, there is a foul-fest at the Gottlieb-Daimler Stadium. The referee blows up again when Costinha fouls Sebastian Kehl on the edge of the Portugal area. The Germany players appear to thank the official for awarding the free-kick and booking the Portugal player. 28 mins: Germany striker Miroslav Klose is fouled at the edge of the area by Nuno Valente. Nothing comes from the free-kick. 27 mins: The Germany fans begin singing their own version of the Beatles' classic Yellow Submarine. 25 mins: Portugal's Ricardo Costa is shown a yellow card after pulling back Miroslav Klose on the edge of the area. Lukas Podolski, on three goals for the tournament, has his powerful free-kick palmed away by keeper Ricardo. 20 mins: Germany's Sebastian Kehl produces a cheeky dink from the edge of the area that forces Ricardo into making a tip-over save. 19 mins: The predominantly Germany-supporting crowd decide to start jeering Portugal. How long before a Mexican wave? 15 mins: Portugal striker Pauleta, who with one goal is unlikely to win the Golden Boot, has his shot saved by Oliver Kahn after being put through one-on-one by Simao. It is more likely he will get an iron boot from his own players if he misses more chances like that. PLAYER RATER: These teams may have mixed views over the validity of a third-place play-off, but it seems the majority of you believe it is worthwhile with 71% believing there is a need for the losing semi-finalists to play off in a showcase game. 10 mins: Torsten Frings turns on a sixpence (or the German equivalent) but fires his shot wide of Ricardo's goal. 8 mins: Germany's Torsten Frings is booked for a late tackle on Deco. 5 mins: A Bastian Schweinsteiger corner is headed into the path of Sebastian Kehl by Christoph Metzelder. Metzelder's volleyed goalbound effort appears to hit the hand of Nuno Valente inside the area. Referee Toru Kamikawa waves play on. Germany have not been awarded a penalty in the World Cup for 12 years. 1 min: Under-fire Cristiano Ronaldo wins a free-kick for Portugal. No boos from the crowd. 2000 BST: Portugal kick off the third-place play-off. LINE-UPS Germany: Kahn, Jansen, Huth, Metzelder, Lahm, Schneider, Kehl, Frings, Schweinsteiger, Klose, Podolski. Subs: Asamoah, Ballack, Borowski, Friedrich, Hanke, Hildebrand, Hitzlsperger, Lehmann, Mertesacker, Neuville, Nowotny, Odonkor. Portugal: Ricardo, Paulo Ferreira, Ricardo Costa, Meira, Nuno Valente, Costinha, Maniche, Deco, Ronaldo, Pauleta, Simao. Subs: Boa Morte, Caneira, Figo, Miguel, Nuno Gomes, Paulo Santos, Petit, Postiga, Quim, Tiago, Viana.

Jürgen Klopp’s Borussia Dortmund side was among the most successful in the club’s history, winning back-to-back Bundesliga titles in 2011 and 2012 while also reaching the 2012/13 UEFA Champions League final. Now, on the back of another appearance in European club football's showpiece fixture, Die Schwarzgelben are getting the band back together in a bid to return to the Bundesliga summit... Edin Terzić's decision to leave Dortmund at the end of the 2023/24 campaign caused shockwaves. After all, BVB had just played in only their third Champions League final, a year after narrowly missed out on the Bundesliga title in 22/23, dropping down to second on the final day. Terzić also won the DFB Cup in 2020/21 as interim boss and his longstanding connection with club, from standing on the terraces as a supporter to occupying a number of different official roles, indicated that he was perfectly suited to the job. However, his exit has allowed another man with deep Dortmund roots to take the reins in Nuri Şahin. The midfielder joined the club as a 13-year-old in 2011 and became the then youngest Bundesliga player in history when he made his debut against Wolfsburg, aged 16 and 334 days. Across three spells, the Turkey international made over 250 appearances in all competitions, winning the league title in 2011 prior to a move to Real Madrid, before returning to lift the DFB Cup in 2017. “It means the world to me – my connection to this club, to this city,” said Sahin upon his appointment. “I invested everything in trying to become a good coach in order to fulfil this dream. Today is the day I get this great opportunity and I'm delighted about it.” The new head coach is joined in the dug-out by assistant and cult hero Łukasz Piszczek. While the Poland international spent the first six years of his professional career on the books of Hertha Berlin, he is synonymous with the black and yellow of Dortmund, joining the club in 2010 and spending 11 years at Signal Iduna Park prior to his 2021 departure. Piszczek played in all but one of Dortmund’s Champions League matches on their way to the 2013 final and ended up making just short of 400 official appearances for club. Only ex-Dortmund and Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski has featured more often among Polish nationals in the Bundesliga. In 2020/21, Piszczek was something of a good-luck charm, with Dortmund winning all 11 league games he played in that term, a new record. After three years with LKS Goczałkowice-Zdrój in his homeland – the final one of as player-coach - the former right-back hung up his boots earlier this summer to join Şahin in Dortmund. In a short post on social media platform X, Piszczek shared: “I am very happy to be returning to Borussia Dortmund, this time as an assistant coach. Thank you for your trust.” Sebastian Kehl, now Dortmund’s sporting director, played a crucial role in adding Piszczek to Şahin’s backroom staff. Another BVB stalwart, the he also notched up over 350 matches for the Ruhr-based outfit as a player over 13 years, with only injuries prevented him from amassing considerably more. Six of those were as captain, and such was Kehl’s longevity, he played in Dortmund’s title-winning campaigns of 2001/02, 2010/11 and 2011/12. It has been quite the journey both for him and Dortmund as a whole. The heartbeat of the team stayed when Dortmund were on the verge of bankruptcy, playing a key role in their subsequent recovery. After calling time on his playing career in 2015, Kehl returned to the club three years later as players licence department director before replacing Michael Zorc in his current role in 2022. Another member of Klopp’s memorable side who remains part of the Dortmund furniture is Romain Weidenfeller, who now occupies an international ambassador position. The goalkeeper spent a monstruous 16 years between the sticks for the team, making 453 appearances – a figure topped at the 1997 European champions by Zorc and Mats Hummels. Across Klopp’s two title-winning campaigns, Weidenfeller missed just three games, and was first-choice goalkeeper for the best part of 11 years. The fact 70,000 people turned out for his testimonial in September 2018 only underlines his importance and the impact he had for over one-and-a-half decades. “They've been there for me for 16 years,” the shot-stopper said after his final Bundesliga home match against Mainz. "It just means the world to me to say goodbye to them. They supported us through thick and thin. I thanked them for their support”. After shedding his gloves for the final time, it was only a matter of time before the Diez native moved on to representative his footballing love internationally. Watch: Roman Weidenfeller - Borussia Dortmund's legendary keeper So what’s next? Marcel Schmelzer as match analyst? Kevin Großkreutz as scout? Shinji Kagawa as stadium announcer? In all seriousness, Dortmund are clearly eager to bring back fan favourites who can share with fresh faces exactly what it means to representative one of German football’s most successful, traditional and well-known institutions. It can lead to success, too, as Bayern Munich’s strong history of employing former players such as Uli Hoeneß, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, Hasan Salihamidžić, Oliver Kahn and many other suggests. For now, though, regardless of what the future holds, Şahin can call upon several friends and trusted confidants as he makes his first steps in charge. And if they can work together like they did under Klopp, silverware may not be far around the corner.

Germany 3-1 Portugal Discuss this game on our new Forum Germany earned third place at the World Cup following a 3-1 win over Portugal in Stuttgart. Two long-range efforts from Bastian Schweinsteiger ensured the hosts finished the tournament on a high note. Germany took the lead when midfielder Schweinsteiger cut in from the left and fired in a shot from the edge of the are that appeared to flummox Portuguese keeper Ricardo. The midfielder repeated the feat 11 minutes from time, while sandwiched between those efforts, Petit could only deflect another Schweinsteiger shot past Ricardo. Portugal gained a consolation goal on the stroke of full-time when Nuno Gomes headed home a Luis Figo cross. Figo, who was rumoured to have had an argument with coach Luiz Felipe Scolari before the game, had come off the bench to make his final appearance for Portugal. Germany looked the better side from the off, with Sebastian Kehl going close with a shot that appeared to strike Nuno Valente’s hand, while Klose, looking to win the Golden Boot as the tournament’s leading scorer, drilled a shot wide. However, Portugal were playing their part in an open game, showing the kind of creativity that was missing in some of their earlier matches. However, as in those games, their lack of a cutting edge up front was proving costly, and the half ended goalless. Ten minutes after the restart that all changed when Schweinsteiger unleashed a fierce drive from long range. Portugal keeper Ricardo appeared to see the effort late and the shot went straight through his hands to give Germany the lead. Five minutes later Germany were two up, with Schweinsteiger again the instigator. The midfielder’s free-kick deflected off Petit as he tried to clear and ended up in the back of the net. Scolari eventually brought on Figo for his 127th and final cap, but his arrival signalled another fine strike Schweinsteiger. The Bayern winger cut inside from the left and unleashed an unstoppable drive past Ricardo. Figo’s final act in a Portugal shirt was to produce a wonderful curling cross for Gomes who headed in from close range. But that effort was a mere consolation, and the hosts deservedly held on to secure the win. The victory was greeted with joy both on the German bench and among the masses of supporters who had come along to pay tribute to their team’s efforts over the past four weeks. It was only fitting that Klinsmann’s side, which had contributed so much to this World Cup, should finish the tournament on a high. Teams: Germany: Kahn, Jansen, Nowotny, Metzelder, Lahm, Schneider, Kehl, Frings, Schweinsteiger, Klose, Podolski. Subs used: Neuville 64 (for Klose), Hanke 71 (for Podolski), Hitzlsperger 79 (for Schweinsteiger. Bookings: Frings 7, Schweinsteiger 79. Portugal: Ricardo, Paulo Ferreira, Ricardo Costa, Meira, Nuno Valente, Costinha, Maniche, Deco, Ronaldo, Pauleta, Simao. Subs used: Petit 45 (for Costinha), Nuno Gomes 69 (for Nuno Valente), Figo 77 (for Pauletta). Bookings: Costa 24, Costinha 33, Ferreira 61. Referee: Toru Kamikawa (Japan). Scorers: Germany: Schweinsteiger 56, 78, Petit 61 (og). Portugal: Nuno Gomes 88.

DORTMUND, Germany (AP) — Borussia Dortmund captain Marco Reus’ injury is not as bad as initially feared, meaning he should still feature at the World Cup for Germany. Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl said Sunday the player “will be out for three to four weeks and will then hopefully be available for us again.” Germany coach Hansi Flick included Reus in his squad for upcoming international games against Hungary and England and was counting on the attacking midfielder as a key member of his World Cup squad. The World Cup starts in Qatar on Nov. 20. Germany plays Japan in Doha three days later. Spain and Costa Rica are also in the group. The 33-year-old Reus was taken off on a stretcher in the first half of Dortmund’s Ruhr derby win against Schalke on Saturday with what looked like a serious ankle injury. Reus was in tears after bending his right ankle awkwardly in a challenge for the ball. “It was a shock for us yesterday when we saw the pictures,” Kehl said. “I can give a little good news today. The tests we carried out on Saturday didn’t show any break. It’s a ligament injury in the ankle.” Reus missed Germany’s World Cup win in 2014 with an ankle injury sustained in a warm-up game, and a groin injury ruled him out of the 2016 European Championship. He played in Germany’s unsuccessful World Cup defense in 2018 but skipped the next European Championship to recover after his season with Dortmund. He has scored 15 goals in 48 games for Germany. Dortmund’s next game is against Cologne on Oct. 1. ___ More AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccer and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports

Veteran midfielder Sebastian Kehl has stepped down as Borussia Dortmund captain as he plans for his final season as a professional footballer. The 34-year-old announced the decision in a press conference on Wednesday, saying he preferred to hand over to a successor now while still being around to offer his support. "This important role has filled me with enjoyment and pride," Kehl said on the club's official website. "It makes sense now to pass the baton on. "For now I will have the opportunity to stand by my successor and give advice and practical help and support with my experience. "Now the time is right." Kehl, a 2002 signing from Freiburg, inherited the captaincy from Christian Worns in 2008, with Jurgen Klopp identifying him as the man to lead the dressing room despite the fact he was battling a succession of injuries at the time. He had already announced he intended this season to be his last, and is determined to go out on top even though he will no longer have the armband. "Borussia stands in front of a fantastic future," he added. "And I'm glad I have been able to shape the story in recent years. I have decided to end my career after this season and to do so now as captain. "I informed the club and the coach of this at the end of last season. "It has nothing to do with my commitment. Anyone who knows me knows that I give everything. I'll stay in a leadership role. My role will not change within the club. "The best thing would be if we could end my final season with the title."

William Gallas speaks on Riccardo Calafiori Arsenal looks to have sorted the transfer saga going on with Bologna’s Riccardo Calafiori with the 22-year-old Italian international looking set to sign a contract with Arsenal. And, if reports are true, travelled to London yesterday to complete his medical before signing a contract and joining Mikel Arteta and the rest of the squad in the USA for their pre-season tour. Calafiori joins a strong backline and group of defenders and although he’s young, will want to be fighting for his place in the first team straight away. OneFootball Videos Former Arsenal captain and defender William Gallas has recently spoke on the incoming signing and what he thinks of him, saying this “I didn’t really watch that many Italian games at the European Championships. For me to watch the Italian team, you know, it brings back too many bad memories (William lost the 2006 World Cup final to Italy), so that’s why I didn’t watch them.” “I did however speak to one of my friends who knows a lot about Italian football and asked him what he thought of him. My friend played in Italy for several years and watches Serie A every week – he played for Inter Milan and Lazio, he was a great player, but I’m not going to say who – and he told me that Ricardo Calafiori is really, really good.” “He’s young. He has good quality, and he can play as a centre back or as a left back. I think he would be a good signing for Arsenal because the club doesn’t really have a left back at the moment. There are doubts about that position.” He then went on to say that he thinks Zinchenko’s days are numbered at the club and think the 22 year old Italian could be the answer to Arsenal’s problems at left back saying this about Zinchenko “‘I think Zinchenko had similar problems when he was at Manchester City. If you can remember, I don’t think that he played in that many of their big games because Pep Guardiola thought that his defensive ability was limited.” ‘With the ball and in possession, he’s a talented player. He is good on the counter attack, but when you ask him to defend and when you put him under pressure, he makes mistakes. He has made a lot of mistakes at Arsenal which is why they are looking to improve their defence. ‘I think Arsenal’s football has moved on from what Zinchenko offers them. Football is a game that constantly evolves, and it is changing again at the moment in terms of how the best teams try and defend. ‘Over the last few years, we’ve seen teams ask their left backs and right backs to go into midfield and build play from the back. We’ve seen back fours become back threes with the ball – a defenders role has changed a lot, but now the focus seems to be on doing what they are there to do: defending very well and being strong. There is a trend moving towards a much more solid back four.” It will very interesting to see how Arteta is going to tweak his defensve tactics for the new season, butCalafiori will obviously be a great addition to Arsenal’s back four and gives us another level of squad depth that we didn’t have last season and needed. But, he is still young and he’s coming to one of the toughest leagues in the world. He will be under a lot of pressure because he’s coming to a big club and I think we shouldn’t put too many expectations on him for his first months at the club, it’s going to be a transition and he’s got plenty of year’s to improve and hopefully under Arteta’s guidance can continue to shine.

The tragedy of Borussia Dortmund’s underachieving season in 2014-15 is that it made so many people forget how fun this team is. This goal from Sebastian Kehl offered a glimpse of those bygone days. Dortmund were at home in the DFB-Pokal quarterfinals against TSG Hoffenheim yesterday. Down 2-1 at halftime, BVB managed to find an equalizer in the second half and force extra time. As the latter half of extra time started, both sides were getting punch-drunk, and it was looking like something magical would need to happen to avoid a penalty shootout. Enter Kehl, stage right. From distance. Through traffic. Pinging off the inside of the post. In a cup tie. In extra time. And it was the gamewinner. Really, this goal had it all. Dortmund will face fierce rivals Bayern Munich in the semifinals on April 28. In the (admittedly unlikely) event they survive that encounter, they’ll face either Wolfsburg or second division side Arminia Bielefeld in the final on May 30.

Germany 3 Portugal 1 \n Midfielder Bastian Schwein-steiger scored two goals and forced the other as World Cup hosts Germany beat Portugal 3-1 to claim third place last night. Schweinsteiger fired home his first goal of the competition from long range in the 56th minute to put Germany ahead. Five minutes later, a Schwei-nsteiger free-kick was deflected into his own net by Portugal midfielder Petit, a half-time substitute. Schweinsteiger added a third with a similar effort to his first in the 78th minute, the ball flying into the top right corner. Substitute Luis Figo created Portugal's consolation, crossing perfectly from the right for Nuno Gomes to head home from close range two minutes from time. Both sides had chances in an evenly balanced first half after Portugal surprisingly left captain Figo out of the starting line-up and Germany made six changes to their team. Germany midfielder Sebastian Kehl saw his shot deflected narrowly wide in the fifth minute and then produced a 25-metre chip which back-pedalling goalkeeper Ricardo did well to tip over. Ricardo also turned away a piledriver shot from Lukas Podolski following a free-kick. At the other end, Germany goalkeeper Oliver Kahn, making his first appearance at the World Cup after being relegated to the bench for the serious part of the tournament, denied Pauleta in the 15th minute. Pauleta was sent clean through by Simao Sabrosa's pass but Kahn rushed out of his goal to block the Portugal striker's side-footed effort. Pauleta, who has managed only one goal, also wasted an excellent chance in the 53rd minute when he shot weakly at Kahn with Ronaldo free and screaming for the ball to his left. In the 56th minute, Schweinsteiger broke the deadlock as he skipped past two challenges and scored with a screaming 30-metre shot as the flight of the ball appeared to deceive Ricardo. Schweinsteiger rocket Five minutes later, Germany won a free-kick on the left and another Schweinsteiger rocket was deflected into the net by the hapless Petit. Germany striker Miroslav Klose, the tournament's leading scorer with five goals. was substituted in the 64th minute without adding to his tally. Figo, whose international future is the subject of speculation at the age of 33, came on for Pauleta in the 77th minute. He had barely come on to the pitch when Schweinsteiger struck again to add further fuel to the German party mood which was barely dampened by Gomes's late diving header.

Germany had a deep run in the 2002 World Cup joint-hosted by Japan and South Korea 20 years ago, and they were unfortunate to not win the whole thing as they finished as runners-up. They lost to Brazil 2-0 in the International Stadium Yokohama in Kanagawa, Japan from a Ronaldo Nazario brace. The next World Cup that they were finalists in was at Brazil 2014, and they won. A lot of time has passed since then, and if you’re curious enough to think of the whereabouts of Germany’s 2002 team, then you’ve come to the right place. Let’s begin! Note: Teams in brackets show which club the player was playing for at the time of the 2002 World Cup. Part 2: Subs and Reserves Oliver Bierhoff (AS Monaco and Chievo) Bierhoff is most known for scoring a brace – the second being the first ever “golden goal” in the history of international football – against the Czech Republic in the final of Euro 1996 held in England. Bierhoff retired after the 2002 World Cup, and now serves as the technical director of the German national team. Gerald Asamoah (Schalke 04) Asamoah mainly played as a reserve for the international team from 2001 to 2006. The Ghanaian-born forward moved to Germany in 1990 and worked his way up from the Hannover 96 reserves to the first team at Schalke where he’s become a fan favorite. Asamoah is currently part of the Schalke first team staff. Christian Ziege (Tottenham Hotspur) Ziege was a Euro 1996 winner and played in the 1998 and 2002 World Cups and the 2000 and 2004 editions of the Euros. An attacking left wingback and dead ball specialist, he played for Tottenham at club level and last managed FC Pingzau in Austria. He then became their sporting director. Jens Lehmann (Borussia Dortmund) Lehmann was Kahn’s understudy in the World Cup. After moving to Arsenal in 2003, he cemented himself as one of the legends of the game as he played all 38 league games in Arsenal’s “Invincibles” season in 2003-04. Two years later, he would become the first ever player (and goalkeeper) to be sent off in a Champions League Final in the game against FC Barcelona played held in Paris, France in 2006. Lehmann was sacked as a representative of the Hertha Berlin supervisory board in 2021 after a racist remark about former player Dennis Aogo, who was a pundit and TV expert for Sky at the time, and has kept a low profile since. Hans-Jörg Butt (Bayer Leverkusen) Butt was the deep reserve for Kahn and Lehmann and maintained this tradition in his later years at Bayern. Butt was known for taking penalties and was Bayer Leverkusen’s undisputed starter, being in net for their 1-0 loss to Real Madrid in the 2002 Champions League Final in Hampden Park, Glasgow, Scotland. Butt was the head of Bayern’s youth setup in 2012 but left after a few days in charge. Marko Rehmer (Hertha Berlin) Rehmer was Hertha Berlin’s undisputed starter at center-back as they qualified for the UEFA Cup (present day UEFA Europa League) in his first four seasons with the club. He is now the managing director of “Inteamsports”, who have handball players and football players under contract. Frank Bauman (Werder Bremen) Bauman was a mainstay for Werder Bremen in the 10 years he played for them after previously playing for FC Nürnberg. Bauman is now Bremen’s head of sport. Sebastian Kehl (Borussia Dortmund) The former midfield general played two games in 2002 and will be Borussia Dortmund’s sporting director in the 2022/23 season. Lars Ricken (Borussia Dortmund) A Dortmund man through and through, the ex-player who played as a midfielder is a director for his former club. He also scored in the 3-1 win over Juventus in the 1997 Champions League Final held in Munich’s Olympiastadion, which was Bayern’s home ground before they moved to the Allianz Arena in 2005. Michael Ballack (Bayer Leverkusen) Ballack was most notable for playing at Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern, and Chelsea. Ballack was integral to Germany’s run to the final in 2002, which led to Bayern fending off Real Madrid for his signature. Ballack is currently TV expert for Prime Video, DAZN, and on Magenta TV for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Jörg Böhme (Schalke 04) Böhme was an unused player in 2002 and was most recently sacked from managing Spvg Steinhagen. Carsten Jancker (Bayern Munich) Jancker’s best spell at club level was for Bayern Munich from 1996 to 2002. At international level, he was rather unsuccessful because he flourished in a two-striker system, something Germany haven’t done as much in 2002; at Bayern he was partnered by Brazilian striker Giovane Élber.

Bundesliga outfit Borussia Dortmund and Sebastian Kehl, 40, will continue their sporting cooperation going forward.

BVB
https://verantwortung.bvb.de/2023/en/sebastian-kehl-prematurely-extends-contract/
“We’re very satisfied with Sebastian and will now be involving him even more closely in all sporting decision-making processes,” said chief executive officer Hans-Joachim Watzke. Meanwhile, BVB sporting director Michael Zorc emphasised that “we’ve worked together in a spirit of trust from day one. We value his work. For me, the contract extension is therefore a logical step.” Sebastian Kehl has long been an iconic figure in Dortmund. He became champion with BVB in 2002, 2011 and 2012, and also won the DFB Cup in 2012. After hanging up his boots in the summer of 2015, the long-time team captain completed a management degree with UEFA and acquired his A Licence as a coach. Since the start of the 2018/2019 season, he has been the head of the licensed player division at Borussia Dortmund. “I would like to say thank you for the trust that the club has shown in me,” said Kehl. “This is an important, positive signal for me. I am glad that our joint strategic and sporting path up until 2022 is now ‘set’. Despite the difficult conditions in the midst of the pandemic, I still enjoy working every day to make Borussia Dortmund a success.”

Borussia Dortmund
https://www.borussiadortmund.co.uk/features/westfalenstadion-50-years-of-home/
The Westfalenstadion. This place is more than a stadium. It’s more than some grass and four stands. For Borussia Dortmund, it is home. For many, it is everything. Rarely are clubs so synonymous with the places they play. But when football fans think of Borussia Dortmund, one image springs to mind. It’s not Jürgen Klopp or Marco Reus, it’s those black and yellow strips plastered across Signal Iduna Park’s Südtribune – or as it’s more affectionately known, the Yellow Wall. Those tifos, those flags, those fans and that passion are what makes BVB one of world football’s most well-liked clubs by neutrals. This ground is one of Europe’s most iconic sporting venues. Just last week the club celebrated 50 years playing at their current home. While other iconic arenas date further back in time, 50 years is all it has taken for this gargantuan sports complex to sit among the greats. The stadium itself The name ‘Westfalenstadion’ literally means ‘Westphalia Stadium’, owing to the state location of the stadium, North Rhine-Westphalia. More commonly known as Signal Iduna Park, the ground’s naming rights were purchased by insurance company Signal Iduna in 2005. That sponsorship deal is currently set to last until 2031. But for all of its various sentiments and charms, Dortmund’s Westfalenstadion is first and foremost a stadium built for football. Take the fans out of the equation, and how does the 81,365-seater rank as a ground overall? Signal Iduna Park is the biggest football stadium in Germany, by capacity, and lies in UEFA’s top bracket of stadium categories. It’s also the fifth biggest in Europe, only behind: Camp Nou* (Barcelona), Wembley Stadium (London), Santiago Bernabeu (Madrid), and Stade de France (Paris). With four grandstands and 11 executive suites, it also holds the European record for average fan attendance. In the 2011-12 season 1.37million spectators came through the doors, an average of 80,588 per game. The whole essence of ‘die Borussen’ is the fans. But while the Südtribune is nothing without those fans, its 24,454 capacity remains the largest terrace for standing supporters in Europe. Where did Dortmund play previously? From 1937 until 1974, ‘die Schwarzgelben’ played at Stadion Rote Erde (Red Earth Stadium). The stadium now hosts Borussia Dortmund II games and athletics events. It holds just under 10,000 people for football games and stands immediately adjacent to Signal Iduna Park. Getting bigger With the club’s domestic and continental success in the 1950s and 1960s, more and more fans were flocking through the doors of the Rote Erde. Plans for expansion were made in the 1960s. But when Cologne pulled out of the running to host matches in the 1974 World Cup in West Germany, Dortmund stepped up to replace them. With that, Cologne’s allocated funding was passed on to Dortmund, giving the club sufficient funds to complete their new build. The city of Dortmund only had to pay 800,000 Deutsche Mark (approx. €400k) to do so, and a 54,000-seater was erected. Various renovations and expansions have taken place since BVB moved into their new home in April 1974. In fact, in 1992 UEFA regulations saw its capacity reduced to 42,800, after certain standing terraces made way for seats. After the club’s 1995 Bundesliga title win, that capacity was soon restored to its original capacity of 54,000, as second tiers were added on to the East and West grandstands. Just two years later, the North and South were extended too. This followed the Black and Yellows’ Champions League triumph under Ottmar Hitzfeld. This brought the capacity up again to 68,000 and the Südtribune as we know it today was born. More change soon followed as the corners between the stands were filled by new curved stands, as the ground was brought up to scratch ahead of the 2006 World Cup. With those corners came the yellow pylons – at first, a mundane structural engineering feature. Now they form part of this stadium’s iconic image; one even features on the club’s current home kit. A glass front, undersoil heating and the famous ‘Borusseum’ – the club’s official museum (launched in 2008) – have also since been installed. A tourist hotspot The Yellow Wall is a sight firmly fixed upon the bucket lists of countless football fans across the globe. While football is a sport that breeds passion on every corner of this planet, in few places can you see such a marvel like the Yellow Wall. A single-tier stand engulfed in black and yellow. With a passion and a fan culture like no other. It’s no surprise as to why the Westfalenstadion draws in so many tourists every week. To accomodate those visiting from out-of-town, the stadium is nicely connected to the city by public transport. Several U-Bahn (Germany’s underground railway system) stations lie in the nearby vicinity of the stadium. The gorgeous Westfalenpark and the impressive Westfalenhallen are accompanied by stations roughly a kilometre away. While ‘Stadion’ itself is just around the corner. ‘Dortmund Signal-Iduna-Park’ is also a popular train stop directly outside the ground. That’s just a five minute ride from the city’s main train station. From the airport, tourists can catch a bus to Holzwickede and then ride 15 minutes on the train to the stadium, making for a half an hour journey. Radisson Blu, B&B and Mercure also have hotels in the same area. It’s fair to say the area is certainly well-prepared for those making progress on their bucket lists. Those Westfalen Nights The Westfalenstadion has seen an incredible amount of football. Just two years ago, the club celebrated 1000 home games at the stadium. Sadly for ‘die Schwarzgelben’, the occasion wasn’t matched by such festivities on the pitch, as Scottish side Rangers ran out 4-2 winners on their way to the UEFA Europa League final. Over 800 of those matches came in the Bundesliga – the first coming in 1976, two years after they’d moved in. More than 80 of those have come in the Champions League, as the club have firmly established their status, sitting among Europe’s elite over the years. No match at the stadium has seen more goals than the 15 seen in Dortmund’s 14-1 win over BSV Schwenningen in the 1978 DFB-Pokal. The club’s 2000th goal at the venue was scored in 2019 against Hoffenheim by Mario Götze – one of the club’s finest academy graduates. That same year, the 3000th goal overall was scored by Raphael Guerreiro in a 4-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen. When it hosts four group stage matches, one round of 16 game and a semi-final at this summer’s European Championships, Signal Iduna Park will be hosting its third major international tournament. Salih Özcan will be well-acquainted with the stadium, as his Turkey team face group F encounters against Georgia and Portugal there. Holders Italy face Albania in Dortmund in the tournament’s third match, while one of the favourites for the trophy, France, conclude their group stage here against Poland. The Polish skipper Robert Lewandowski will certainly be familiar with his surroundings. International Heritage Just two months after its doors opened, the Westfalenstadion hosted its first major tournament. Scotland took on Zaire at the 1974 World Cup in front of 25,000 people on the second night of the tournament. The other three games played there that tournament all involved Johan Cruyff’s iconic Netherlands side. As it has gone on to be for the likes of Donyell Malen and Ian Maatsen, the stadium proved to be something of a lucky omen for the team. Holland drew with Sweden in Dortmund before beating Bulgaria and Brazil, with Cruyff and Johan Neeskens stealing the show. Signal Iduna Park also hosted six matches at the 2006 World Cup – the only other time it has been hosted by Germany. Before that, the stadium hosted its first, and only (to date), European final. In 2001, the last time the golden goal rule was used to decide a European final took place in Dortmund. BVB themselves went on to appear in the final the following year, but that season, Liverpool completed their treble of cup competitions with a win over Deportivo Alaves in North Rhine-Westphalia. https://twitter.com/TheRedmenTV/status/1704861790407143477 2006 World Cup Five years later, the likes of Ronaldo Nazario, Ronaldinho and Kaka starred in one group match as Brazil demolished Japan. Other group stage results included wins for Germany and Switzerland against Poland and Togo respectively, and a 0-0 draw between Trinidad and Tobago and Sweden. Cafu and Roberto Carlos also featured as Brazil dispatched of Ghana in the round of 16 thanks to goals from Ronaldo, Adriano and Bundesliga hero Ze Roberto. The final game played in Dortmund that summer was Germany’s first defeat at the stadium. Jürgen Klinsmann’s side fell to a last gasp extra time defeat at the hands of eventual champions Italy. Strikes from Fabio Grosso and Alessandro Del Piero saw Marcello Lippi’s men book their place in the final in Berlin, as Sebastian Kehl and Jens Lehmann were among those to taste defeat. A special place From Anthony Modeste’s iconic Klassiker equaliser against Bayern to Felipe Santana’s magical Malaga winner in 2013, the Westfalenstadion is the site of many memories. Robert Lewandowski’s four-goal haul against Real Madrid. That Lewandowski title-decider against Bayern in 2012. Many Revierderby classics against Schalke. The list goes on. Michael Zorc. Lars Ricken. Dede. Mats Hummels. Marco Reus. So many stars have called Signal Iduna Park home. From Ottmar Hitzfeld to Jürgen Klopp. This place transcends eras. It’s more than a home. Having experienced such history in just 50 years, who knows what the next half-century will bring. Happy birthday, our very own Westfalenstadion.

Sven Mislintat's future at Borussia Dortmund is in doubt, with the squad planner in danger of being fired after just three months. Mislintat returned to Dortmund in May but according to BILD, his relationship with head coach Nuri Sahin appears to be completely broken. After Mislintat ran onto the pitch during a training session, Sahin is said to have issued him a warning after being left 'freaked out'. Although Mislintat reports to sporting director Sebastian Kehl, he has reportedly tried to go it alone with transfers by approaching players himself. He was reportedly very critical of the signing of Yan Couto, who joined on loan from Manchester City with an option to buy. However, Kehl and sports director Lars Ricken pushed ahead with the transfer. Dortmund have also signed Pascal Gross from Brighton, while Waldemar Anton and Serhou Guirassy joined from Stuttgart. Mislintat has been accused of leaking internal information, while his appearances on Sky surprised the club. Last year Mislintat was fired by Ajax, where he was working as director of football. Mislintat shocked Ajax players by coming into the dressing room to talk about the possible dismissal of head coach Maurice Steijn. Prior to that Mislintat worked for Arsenal after falling out with Thomas Tuchel at Dortmund over transfers. During his initial spell at Dortmund, Mislintat signed players such as Robert Lewandowski, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Shinji Kagawa and Ousmane Dembele.

BVB boss Sebastian Kehl has volunteered to forgo part of his salary amid the corona crisis. Sebastian Kehl, Head of the Licensing Player Department at Borussia Dortmund, has given up part of his wages to help the club financially during the coronavirus pandemic. "I would simply like to do my part to ensure that we all look beyond our own noses to take our social and societal responsibility during the corona crisis," Kehl told Die Welt. Kehl didn't want to comment on whether the players at the club have offered to forgo part of their wages as well. "In the end, when it comes to the question of salary sacrifice, everyone can only answer for themselves." Borussia Mönchengladbach announced earlier this week that their players, coaching staff, directors and CEOs have all given up parts of their wages amid the corona crisis.

The hosts got three goals in 20 minutes in the second half with the help of 21-year-old left midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger. His first goal beat the Portuguese goalkeeper Ricardo with pace over his head. Only 4 minutes later, Schweinsteiger's free kick 30 metres from the left of the penalty box, driven low across goal, was connected with Petit's knee to become an own goal for Portugal. The German did not stop, and netted his second goal, which swerved away to the keeper's left, in the 78th minute. Portugal were strong in possession but lacked punch in attack; unable to convert 57% possession into goals. Pauleta had two clear chances from 15 metres, but both times hit tame shots that did not trouble keeper Oliver Kahn, who was playing in his last match for the German national team. Portugal got a consolation goal with the help of substitute Luís Figo (also playing the final international game of his career), who almost immediately provided the precise distribution needed to unlock the German defence. A cross from the right wing on 88 minutes found fellow substitute Nuno Gomes at the far post, who dived in for the goal. The game ended 3–1, a result which gave the tournament hosts the bronze medals and left Portugal in fourth place.

The last day of the 2021/22 season was one of goodbyes for everyone at the Westfalenstadion. Borussia Dortmund took the time to thank several players who were leaving the club including star striker Erling Haaland and longtime left-back Marcel Schmelzer. One goodbye, however, stood above the rest. It was the last day in a forty-four-year long BVB career for Michael Zorc, the club’s sporting director. Zorc established himself as a legend for his hometown club. He racked up 463 games for the team in a seventeen-year playing career where Borussia Dortmund won the Bundesliga twice, DFB Pokal, and Champions League. His playing career was followed by a twenty-four-year-long stint as director of football and sporting director between 1998 and 2022. During this period, Zorc helped propel Dortmund to mainstay status amongst European football’s elite clubs as they again won the Bundesliga twice, the DFB cup three times, and reached the final of the 2013 Champions League. Michael Zorc undoubtedly leaves a legacy as one of Dortmund’s greatest legends and is hailed as one of football’s greatest ever sporting directors. His retirement marks a leap into uncertainty for the Ruhr Pott club and for the first time in twenty-four years, Dortmund needed a new sporting director. How do you replace the most legendary man in club history? Well, the answer is surprisingly unsurprising. You replace him with another club legend: Sebastian Kehl. Kehl The Player Considering we have a new generation of Dortmund fans on our hands, it is important we take time to look at Sebastian Kehl’s playing career. Sebastian Kehl was born in Fulda in 1980, a small town in central Germany where the only notable export over the past century has been fear of a Soviet invasion. Unlike Zorc, who he will always be compared to, Kehl was never a “one club man” for his boyhood club and instead came through the youth academy at Hannover 96 as a defensive midfielder. Kehl began his career as an 18-year-old in 1998, the same year Zorc retired as a player for Borussia Dortmund. Between 1998 and 2000, Kehl plied his trade in the 2. Bundesliga before making the jump to the first division following a move to Freiburg. Much like today, Freiburg was enjoying a purple patch when Kehl joined for the 2000/2001 season and the club finished sixth in the Bundesliga, qualifying for the UEFA cup in the process. It was during this period that Kehl began to garner interest from Germany’s top teams including Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund’s director of football, Michael Zorc. Freiburg’s European adventures were both short-lived and disastrous for the club during Kehl’s second season in the top-flight. Eventual winners Feyenoord knocked Kehl, who scored in the home fixture, and Freiburg out of the UEFA Cup while the club’s Bundesliga form began to falter. Like most talented players on soon-to-be relegated teams, Sebastian Kehl took the first opportunity to jump ship. When Bayern Munich and Borusia Dortmund made offers for the player, Kehl opted to join Matthias Sammer’s Dortmund team in the January window. He would later come out and say that he chose BVB and Sammer’s project over Bayern Munich despite the Bavarians offering more money. At Dortmund, Kehl immediately became a starter and played all but one league match in a BVB team that included legends such as Jens Lehmann, Tomas Rosicky, Dede, Lars Ricken, and Marcio Amoroso. Poetically for Kehl, at the end of 2001-2002 his former team were relegated, Dortmund won the league by just one point, and he once again lost to Feyenoord in the UEFA Cup, this time in the final. It would be a long road for both club and Kehl until Dortmund enjoyed that success again. The following season, Dortmund finished third in the Bundesliga and were knocked out of the Champions League by eventual winners AC Milan. The 2003-2004 season saw injuries and departures derail the team’s success as head coach Matthias Sammer was sacked following a sixth-place finish. The next two seasons saw Kehl enjoy some of his most consistent time at Dortmund as he played 5,400 minutes across sixty-one league games. The club, equally consistent, finished seventh both seasons. The start of the 2006 season saw Dortmund begin the season with a trip to the Allianz Arena, long before the ‘der Klassiker’ matchup was a battle between two Bundesliga heavy weights. The game did not just mark the beginning of a new Bundesliga season, it also marked the beginning of Kehl’s injury woes. Less than 20 minutes into the game, Bayern’s Hasan ‘Brazzo’ Salihamidžić slid studs up into Kehl and tore into his knee. What was first believed to be a month-long absence soon turned into months. Kehl ended that season with only 250 minutes played as he battled infections and setbacks. It would mark the beginning of a long string of injuries that Kehl would sustain throughout his playing career and he only surpassed two thousand league minutes once more in his playing career. Both Dortmund and Kehl struggled until the summer of 2008 when Dortmund made one of the greatest coaching changes in history; the club hired Jürgen Klopp. Klopp’s first decision as coach was to appoint Kehl, at that point a 28-year-old veteran, as the club’s captain. Kehl repaid Klopp’s trust by providing a career year for Dortmund. He played over two thousand league minutes and solidified himself as the league’s best defensive midfielder while a resurgent Dortmund finished in sixth place. A vast improvement on the thirteenth place finish from the season prior. In unsurprising Dortmund fashion, however, injuries began to remerge. Kehl only would only play 12 Bundesliga games across the next two seasons. Despite this, he was the club captain that lifted the Bundesliga trophy in 2011. It marked triumph at last for Dortmund, but not Kehl. He wanted to play a larger role as Dortmund won the league instead of watching from the sidelines. He got his chance the following year. Leading up to the 2011/2012 season, Kehl was fit once again and more determined than ever to prove his status among Dortmund’s elite players. The club captain played thirty-two games in midfield alongside Shinji Kagawa, Gündogan, and 19-year-old Mario Götze. That year, Dortmund completed the double. They won the league by eight points and Kehl lifted the Meisterschale in the Westfalenstadion for the third time in his career. The team then went on to collect their second trophy, beating league runners-up Bayern Munich 5-2 in the DFB Pokal final. Despite being the third of his career, this Bundesliga victory was different for Kehl. He had won it not only as a mainstay on the field but also as the club’s captain who had stayed with them through a decade of ups and down. The 32-year-old Kehl had elevated himself to the status of a club legend. The following year Kehl helped Dortmund challenge for both the Bundesliga and Champions league, this time coming up short in both. Going into the 2014-2015 season, Kehl announced that it would be his last. He withdrew himself from the club captaincy and Mats Hummels replaced him. His final match was once again another final, the ninth of his playing career, as Dortmund were defeated in the DFB Pokal by Wolfsburg. Much like Zorc, he received a sendoff from the Yellow Wall and was given a position on Dortmund’s backroom staff. Kehl’s retirement from playing, much like Zorc’s retirement as sporting director, marked the end of an era for Dortmund. Kehl The Sporting Director So why all of that? Why a lengthy, yet still criminally shortened, synopsis of Kehl’s playing career? Well, several reasons. The first is because this article started off with a brief description of who Zorc was, what he did for the club, and why his retirement means so much not just for the club’s sporting qualities, but also for the club’s identity. One of the club’s greatest sources of history and a standard-bearer for the club’s traditional values has moved on. Despite this, his replacement is equally qualified to carry on values that Dortmund fans pride themselves on. Throughout his playing career, Kehl showed a commitment to Dortmund through both lows and highs. With him as sporting director, the expectation should be a continued commitment to both sporting excellence and a Dortmund identity that is the culmination of 113 years of history. He is a Borusse. The second and, to many, more important reason is that by looking at Kehl’s career we can gain insight into how he will operate as a sporting director. He came to Dortmund in 2002 not because the team promised him the greatest wage, Bayern offered that, but because Michael Zorc and Mathias Sammer offered him a better project. Kehl understands that to win players over you must promise them a successful project that is in line with their personal goals. He also understands what success requires because he experienced different iterations of success. As a player, Kehl worked under serial winners like Mathias Sammer, Jürgen Klopp, Michael Zorc, and players ranging from Lars Ricken to Marco Reus. He is one of the few people who worked for the club across every low and high point in the last twenty years. Kehl has seen three different iterations of Bundesliga-winning teams, what it takes to reach a Champions League final, and what is required to lift the Pokal. These qualities are extremely rare, but Kehl provides all of them due to his time at the club. And as sporting director, he wasted no time putting them to use. Immediately, Sebastian Kehl has proven how these qualities lead to success in his new role. His first acquisition as he began to take the reins was Niklas Süle. Much like Kehl, Süle was offered more money to play at Bayern but Kehl promised something Bayern could not; an opportunity to be a leader and win the Bundesliga at a club where it will mean more. The Nico Schlotterbeck signing was, again, Kehl luring a player to Dortmund despite more money being offered elsewhere. This time not only did Kehl offer a place where Schlotterbeck could grow as a part of a project, but he also was willing to throw money behind it. Adeyemi, and his fee from Redbull Salzburg, show how Kehl understands to challenge Bayern, Dortmund sometimes have to spend like them. Within a week of Kehl’s ascendency to sporting director, he had three high-profile signings undergoing medicals in club colors. The ongoing summer transfer window is a testament to what we can expect from Kehl; a ‘win at every opportunity’ mentality that aims to challenge a hegemonic Bayern Munich. Now the final, and perhaps most superfluous, reason that this article detailed Kehl’s playing career is because it makes his new role so much more entertaining for us fans. By contextualizing Kehl in this manner, we can begin to see the plethora of storylines that are beginning to unfold. In 2002, then-coach Mathias Sammer and then-sporting director Michael Zorc gambled to sign a promising Sebastian Kehl to Borussia Dortmund. Twenty years later, sporting consultant Mathias Sammer and Michael Zorc once again put their faith in Kehl to challenge for the Bundesliga. This time as sporting director. Hasan ‘Brazzo’ Salihamidžić, the man who tore Kehl’s knee open with an egregious challenge in 2006 is now the sporting director at the very club Kehl seeks to supplant at the top of the Bundesliga. Despite losing two European finals during his career at Dortmund, Kehl now seeks to build a BVB team that will not just qualify for the Champions League, but potentially win it as well. Will Kehl repay the trust put into him by his old colleagues? Will he get his revenge on Brazzo and Bayern? Can he finally lift a continental competition with Dortmund? These are the reasons why you should be excited to see what Kehl does as sporting director despite the cloud of uncertainty. The passing of Zorc’s crown might be the end of an era for Borussia Dortmund, but it is the start of a new one that promises so much. It marks the continuation of tradition while pushing a new man to the forefront of the club. To steal an apt phrase from medieval monarchists: “The king is dead, long live the king.” Let me know if you made it this far and if you like these deep dives into people at the club. I know it’s a bit different than the usual stuff so please feel free to give any input because it’s all welcome. Thanks for reading!

Frank Augstein/Associated Press Borussia Dortmund will have a new captain this season, following 34-year-old midfielder Sebastian Kehl's decision to step down from the post for his final season at the Bundesliga club. This now means that coach Jurgen Klopp will be forced to pick a new leader among his title-contending squad and award them the great honour of becoming the new captain of Dortmund. Kehl, who joined the club at the age of 20, has played over 250 league matches for Dortmund and was universally respected at the Westfalenstadion and across the league as one of the few players to have stuck by the Bundesliga side through their financial troubles a decade ago. So who does Klopp pick as his new captain for the coming season? Here are a few of our top selections from amongst the current squad. Frank Augstein/Associated Press Few players at Dortmund these days characterise the team under Klopp quite as well as central defender Mats Hummels. Although the current victim of wild speculation, linking him to clubs all over Europe, Hummels has made absolutely no effort to leave Dortmund and seems perfectly content at the Bundesliga club. Famously coming through the ranks at Bayern Munich as a boy, the German international found a new home at Dortmund under Klopp in 2008 and has since proved himself as a valiant servant to the club. At the heart of every team in recent seasons, this player would make a perfect captain for Dortmund in the years to come. Martin Meissner/Associated Press As a player who once likened himself to a fine bottle of red wine that keeps getting better with age, Roman Weidenfeller continues to stand as the proud stick in the mud of this youthful, ambitious side. At 34 years old, this goalkeeper is undoubtedly the most experienced and proven player in Klopp's current side and would be perfectly suited to leading his team out in the Bundesliga and Champions League for the foreseeable future. In many ways Weidenfeller is already the leader within this squad. Commanding from his penalty box, he's often seen screaming at the defence and any slacking midfielder to make sure they cover their ground and keep on top of their game. Handing him the captain's armband would change very little, but it would confirm his role as the coach's right-hand man. Paul White/Associated Press Like some sort of black-and-yellow prodigal son, Nuri Sahin has travelled off to distant lands, had his taste of Galacticos football and returned with a humbled expression on his face to the feet of Klopp. Some Dortmund fans may still begrudge him ever thinking he was better than the club in the first place, but few could now argue that he doesn't give absolutely everything for his team in each game. Sahin is still undoubtedly a fantastic player, and now that he's gotten over his bad experience of playing abroad, he looks set to commit himself to the club. So why not give this Dortmund prodigy another chance and allow him to wear the greatest honour the club could offer? The 25-year-old is only now approaching his prime and will go on to become an even more necessary cog in the Klopp machine. Making him captain will only confirm this and allow him to go about his task with an immeasurable amount of pride. Frank Augstein/Associated Press If Klopp wants to keep a hold of Marco Reus then he should make him the captain of his new-look Dortmund side. Although we've seen attempts like this in the past, where a manager makes the star player his captain in the hope of taming any ambitions of pastures new—yes we're looking at you Cesc Fabregas and Wayne Rooney—yet there would be a genuine case for making this German international the captain of his side. The most obvious of these is the simple fact that Dortmund have often looked like a one-man team when Reus is on his game. Quite simply, without a fully fit Ilkay Gundogan, no player in this team comes close to the talent that the former Dortmund youth player has. Make him the Dortmund captain, show him that he's the most important player at the club and then watch as he makes it his own. Claude Paris/Associated Press Mats Hummels may be Klopp's fashionable defender, Reus may be his star player, but only one man in this current team characterises Dortmund as a club. That man is Kevin Grosskreutz: the man who should be the new captain of this famous Bundesliga club. Now, Grosskreutz is anything but a first-team regular under Klopp. Originally a player who broke through as a winger, the German international now tends to play as a make-shift full-back under the current regime, but that shouldn't really matter. The former captain hadn't been a key player for the club for a number of years, yet what he meant to the fans and what he provided in support and morale in the dressing room meant that he was more than deserving of the armband.

schwatzgelb.com: Your BVB career started with arguments between Dortmund and Bayern. What do you think: How would your career have turned out if you hadn’t joined BVB? Sebastian Kehl: I made the right decision with my transfer to Borussia Dortmund. To spend the last 13 years with this club gave me so much in my career. We experienced the highs and lows together. For a player it is unique to actively shape the course like that, from winning the Championship to coming close to bankruptcy and then to win the double and reach the Champions League final. I think no other club or player managed that. It’s an experience I relished to go through with BVB. What kind of expectations did you have when you came to Dortmund? Many people always have coal, beer and steel in the back of their minds when they think about the city. How did you get to know it in the last 13 years? The transfer pretty much happened all of a sudden so I couldn’t really explore the city before, however that wasn’t important for me in that moment. It was rather the football perspective that counted. From day one I had the feeling that Borussia Dortmund really wanted to sign me and that they saw a person in me that could grow into a responsible position. Borussia Dortmund was always a big club in football. I knew that because of the games I played against BVB with my old clubs and Borussia’s European Cup games I watched on TV. You don’t really bother thinking about the city as a 21 year old. Back then I already had a girlfriend but no children yet. As a young guy you don’t really need an awful lot, that’s why I simply took it all in but of course I had prejudices. You expect grey mist in the air when you arrive in the Ruhr region. However that’s not the case at all. The city really transformed itself in the last years and I think Dortmund is one of the nicest cities in the Ruhr area. My family and me got used to the people and also came to love Dortmund with all its advantages and disadvantages. Of course there are things you get in other cities that you can’t get here but that’s not crucial for me. For me it’s vital to have people around you that you like to spend time with and who you are comfortable with and that’s what I always had in this city and this club. Were you aware of the close connection between the club and the city before the transfer? That was probably a little different in Hannover and Freiburg. Other clubs also have the same commitment. The people in Freiburg are attached to their club too, same as in Hannover. Hannover is also a traditional club. When things were going well the stadium was also packed. There have been a lot of arguments with the fans in the last weeks of the season but there’s also a huge enthusiasm. Even in the 2nd Bundesliga we used to have 40,000 people at the games back then in Hannover. They are big clubs too but Borussia Dortmund was always a league above. That’s how I expected it and that also proved to be true. It’s something very special with the 25,000 on the Südtribüne behind you. There used to be as many people in the stadium in Freiburg overall as we have on the Süd. The atmosphere in Freiburg was still good in a different kind of way but of course it’s another thing to play for Borussia Dortmund. That’s also because the club is strongly attached to the city. There’s not much more than football here after beer and coal fell away. Even though the mayor won’t like to hear this now (laughs) but that’s why for me Dortmund is Borussia Dortmund. The club comes first for the majority of the people. When someone abroad hears the word Dortmund everyone thinks of Borussia Dortmund. What are the differences between today’s Borussia and the club you joined back then? Of course the club extremely grew. We were already a huge club after the Champions League triumph in the 90s but since then there’s been a lot of development, for example when you look at the amount of employees from now to then, the structures of the club or how the stadium has changed. The club handled all those changes very well and also made the right conclusions after the negative years. BVB is a lot more stable now. The training ground also changed a lot. You trained under different conditions when you started here. I also liked the atmosphere at the old training ground because it was close to the stadium but of course the demands increased. We needed better training conditions and the youth department and the school were also added. When you compare the old training ground at Rabenlohn with the area in Brackel you notice how the club developed. We also live from the youths and have to keep working on bringing one or the other young player closer to the first team squad. BVB created the perfect conditions for that. You won the Bundesliga right after your transfer to BVB, then it slowly started to go down hill, in football and financially. Did you think about a transfer during this time? There always used to be enquiries but nothing tempted me in the Bundesliga. When you play for Borussia Dortmund there are not many other clubs that tempt you. Why not? What is the difference between Borussia and other clubs, In your opinion? It is just the scope and the pulling power of the club. It is the tradition, it's the fans and it's the stadium. To which Club do I want to switch to after Borussia Dortmund? Okay, objectively you could say: of course Bayern Munich is a top address. They have a incredible successful past and therefore have worked themselves into a lead. But apart from that? Okay, if you stay objectively you could also say: The blue ones have somewhat of a fan culture as well - different than ours, but there is a lot of emotionality in it. They have not got the Bundesliga trophy in ages, but they also live for the football. You mentioned the Blue ones: In the past you have always had a great relationship with Christoph Metzelder, who switched, after his detour to Real Madrid, to our district neighbor. How did you experience that? His popularity in Dortmund totally vanished because of that. It wasn't easy for Christoph after Madrid. He was still really attached to Dortmund, even though he had a blue history as well. He did play there as a youth and Haltern (editor's note: the city in which Metzelder grew up) is more of a region for blue fans. Christoph had his doubts when he got the offer from Gelsenkirchen and he thought a lot about taking it or not. For himself it was the best possible solution in terms of sport perspective. My friendship with him did not suffer because of that. We've been through a lot together and formed a close friendship. Then you also stand together in bad times. We still have a good connection with each other. Even though you don't have much friends as a BVB-Player with the blue ones. Christoph and I can differ very good between friendship and rivalry in sports. He also once helped us in a derby as a blue one with an almost own-goal But he also destroyed the Schalker championship with a ball into the box when he played for us. The century-derby will of course never be forgotten A lot of people managed to forget it somehow after he started dressing in blue. With Metzelder you also share the bad fortune of tedious injuries. It all started with the foul of Salihamidzic right after the World Cup of 2006. In retrospect, was that the most bitter moment of your career? Of course that foul was a situation that burdened me a lot. It was a big cut. I even needed some time to cope with it, because some things changed for me physically as well as mental after the World Cup, which was a great tourney for me. It really threw me back a long time and it was the start of a lot of injuries that were based on that first one. Today I can speak about it much more calmly, because I learned to accept it as part of my career. Injuries are part of our job and you have to learn to deal with it. You also have to fathom injuries as what they are: A chance to learn in other areas and to work on yourself and the weaknesses that you have. That's why I am also thankful for what I have experienced because of that injury. Your surroundings, the team and the club are thing you get to know better that way. You learn how fast paced this business is. If you don't play two times in a row, or are gone for 5 weeks, then you are no longer present and two more weeks later nobody even know that you are still there. That was a real educational experience which let me mature. But I am happy that I managed to turn it around once more and that's what I can be proud of. I managed to come back after every injury and also managed to reinforce my appreciation inside the team and the club. And I also could be so successful once more. That's why I am thankful and humble. Do you think that maybe because of all those lows you can appreciate these big achievements, in this late phase of your career, even more? Definitely. These negative experiences let you cope with some situations in a much more humble way. Then you simply learn to savor the success much more. And the success we had once more, especially in 2011 and 2012, were brilliant. Not only for me, but for everyone. Did you speak with Salihamidizic again after what happened? I saw him once sometime. Today I would assume for him that he didn't do it on purpose. Of course there always are other voices, but that is over now. Marco Reus prolonged his contract with the Borussia, even though he did not win a single title yet and would have a great chance for that elsewhere. Several other players switch to other clubs like Bayern Munich because of that. In your opinion, what really does count in professional football: titles, money or something completely different? Every player has to answer that question for himself. I think a lot of players have the wish to play in a foreign country once, maybe even in a special club. Other players are satisfied by playing in the Bundesliga. They don't need the international business, maybe they are also not that financial oriented, that they say, they have to turn every dollar around. Or they say: What I earn now is enough for me. I don't think you can answer that question in general. Everyone has his own perspective on that matter. The older you get the more important other things get, it's not the extra coin or a compelling club anymore. You learn to cherish other things. And still I say: Everyone that has the wish to change the club, or recognizes the business as what it is - namely to play ten years or more football, to absorb emotions and at the end of course also financial success -, I am really not angry about them. Because it is part of our business. Players are getting bought, players are getting sold, the fans are sometimes happy and sometimes they are mad. But isn’t it normal? Of course supporters are mad if a good player leaves the club. Yes but what should Gladbach have said after Reus went to Borussia Dortmund? It is the business. I have learnt to accept that some players have special wishes, maybe also because of their origin. There is a difference: A Brazilian player may handle these kinds of situations different than someone from Germany who has his roots in the region. To generalize this fact would not be fair and everyone should have this fairness towards this players. Therefore I like that people nowadays say: If Ilkay wants to go, he can do it! That’s a part of the system. I can understand that he wants to join another club. But then he has to go now so that the club has enough money to buy a new player. Did your perspective change as time passed? Did you look at different things today then ten years ago? Of course all players would like to be successful. If he does not want to be, he would miss his occupation. Someone who running alongside will never make it in a big club. The air up there simply becomes thinner. And therefore a step to Borussia Dortmund – even in this situation of pressure, this stadium and due to the importance – it is something you have to accept. You have to be conscious of the fact that you play for championships as well. You cannot simply say in the end: well, 12th place is also fine. The desire for titles is always present. There is only the question if you completely want to make yourself dependent of these titles. I do not know if someone who won 15 titles somewhere else is happier than someone who won 3 titles with Borussia Dortmund. Because these three titles have been won in another situation, in a surrounding with completely different emotions. I do not want to exchange my titles and the rounds around the Borsigplatz with 15 others. Which of the three championships was the most beautiful for you? The first one was sensational because we did not really believe in it anymore. 2002 was a tumultuous year. When we overtook Leverkusen right before the finish line. The last match against Bremen was incredible. I will never forget it. We were 0:1 behind! My second championship was dominated by injuries. I did not play a lot, that’s why this one is not that important like the others. But with the Double the next year, I went all in und I was captain. It could not be any better. Thus each title has his own history. Jürgen Klopp did really influence the last seven years and gave the club a new philosophy. How did you feel that the most as a player? We have recognised this from the first moment: With the words he welcomed us, with the passion and fervour with which he made us clear, what the squad and the club would bring ahead once more. He did realise this together with Aki Watzke and Michael Zorc and completed the squad. With players no one really knew at this point of time. And everything did happen with the appropriate method. This brought the success back to Borussia Dortmund. That’s why Jürgen Klopp does have a really, really big impact on the way the club presented itself to the outside. However, this time is over now – but it will go on! Which other coaches of Borussia Dortmund did influence yourself during your time here? Each coach does influence a player. Sometimes more, sometimes less. Some things are also negative, you simply accept them and say to yourself: “Ok, you don’t want to do it this way anymore.“ But it all has something to do with characters and we had a lot of different coaches. With Matthias Sammer I had a really, really ambitious coach who was really eager. Nevertheless, his character and his passion did really thrill me when we talked together. And Matthias Sammer was a big player at Borussia. Then there came coaches with more experience who were longer in the business. Bert van Marwijk for example, who became national coach afterwards. Everyone had his own philosophy, an own style of training, and an own style of talking. It would not fair to compare these coaches with each other. You mentioned Matthias Sammer. We somehow regret that he does not behave like he had a big history with our club. How do you judge this from the distance? Do you still have contact to him? I did have contact with him from time to time. And the contact was always characterised by respect. But he does now represent the colours of a different club and he does it in the same passionate way as he did it in the past. Coming to the end, lets talk about your future. A new chapter of your life is right in front of you. How do you rate the decision to quit? Do you thing it is the right time? When I made the decision to extend my contract and end my career afterwards in April last year, I did maybe not exactly know what I was up to. But after time passed by I was more and more confident that this decision was the right one. To quit on this high level where I am now will be a lot more satisfying than quitting next year with the feeling that I am no longer really needed or even being behind physically. That was something I would like to spare myself. This is something very valuable for me. Did you get any second thoughts to extent your contract again? Many people said: “Come on, just one more year, you’re in a great shape at the moment.” But as I said: It was important to me to end my career on a high level and to open a new chapter with all the positive memories. Who could’ve written a better script than one which ends with cup final in Berlin? That is amazing! A perfect script for me and I hope we can end it as perfectly. That would be a great end for my career as well. Do you feel melancholy or are you pleasantly anticipating what’s about to come? I am more anticipating what’s to come. That feeling has grown over the last few weeks. I will travel a bit after the final, try to leave things behind and get some distance between what has been and what will come. I will be still connected to football in general and Borussia Dortmund in particular, of course. We’re in good talks and maybe something will emerge from them. With the end of your career your rhythm of life will change as well. Which change are you most delighted in? There will be changes in my physical shape… (laughing) …which I’m not looking forward to! I’ll meet with Arne [press officer Arne Niehörster, ed.] twice a week. And not just for motorbike tours, but rather for running. Arne Niehörster (shocked): “WHAT?” Seriously: Of course, I’m glad to have more time with my family, especially with the kids who were able to follow the BVB and my career very positively in the last few years. My son is eight years old, he was attending the match against Hoffenheim where I scored and he was in Berlin as well. I’m very thankful that he can experience all this. And my daughter, too, who doesn’t have much interest in football though. But it is great that the kids and the family is able to accompany this time and still be glad about what’s to come: more time together, more time for travelling and a daily routine where we have loads of options. All the sacrifices due to my life as a professional football player are not necessary anymore. I worked for this indecency and I am looking forward to it. What will you miss the most? There are many things I’ll miss. Entering the stadium every other week (smiles). Adrenaline boosts, emotions, especially after the matches, after wins, I won’t get that to this extent anymore. I’m sure about that. Come and watch a match on the Süd with us! I’ve been tot he Süd before. But having this weekly confirmation will be something I’m surely gonna miss. At the moment the whole week is focused on the Saturday and suddenly this is not a goal anymore. Of course, I will be missing all the great moments with the team. Working on a goal together, for example. I’m on my own now which will be a challenge as I’ve always been a teamplayer. But that will be just a small timespan. In the future there will be a perspective for me where I can work in a team, in another function, in another area. And then I can set new goals and work ambitiously on those. But right now, I’m glad to slow down my life and let it just drift. You probably don’t want to talk about your job plans in detail. But maybe you can tell whether you’re future will be in football business or a totally different area? I see myself in the sports business. I gathered so many experiences there, it would be stupid to waste them. It is a good skill I can offer so I can imagine myself in the sport area quite well. In what kind of function, where and how, I don’t know about that because nothing is fixed, yet. But there are certainly interesting job offers and staying in the football business would be great. To wrap up, a look backward: We did an interview with you twelve years ago and you said that you’re not sure about your standing among the fans. That was right after the match in the league cup where you got sent off for pushing referee Jürgen Aust. What do you think about your standing now? Are there less doubts? Back then I was new to Dortmund and I think that these red cards which happened shortly after each other were not making too many people happy. Of course, this worries a player. You give your best but you don’t know what people think about you. Most certainly, not everyone is wearing a Kehl-jersey on the Süd or even the whole stadium and there will always be people who say: “It’s time he ends his career”. But I’m sure, I was able to convince many people with my football playing style and my behavior. I’ve always tried to embody this club and identified myself with it. And even if people just feel respect for what I did and how I always came back, then everything is fine. You will never be loved by everyone. But if you try – like I did – to be authentic and do it your way, I hope that the people here in Dortmund and especially the fans, got to know me and what I’m standing for. And maybe there is some more to come … That would be great. Thank you for taking the time so close to the end of your career! Interview by: Daniel R., Ramona, Web, 05.06.2015

Borussia Dortmund are just 90 minutes away from reaching their first ever Champions League final since 2013, but that doesn’t stop the talk about the futures of Ian Maatsen and Jadon Sancho. The duo, on loan from Chelsea and Manchester United, have shone since their arrivals on loan. When asked for an update on their futures, BVB Sporting Director Sebastian Kehl kept his cards close to his chest. “We will see [if we can keep them]. They are on loan, both of them but we need to make any decisions, of course they are under contract with their clubs, so it means at a specific point we will get in touch and we will see if it’s possible,” Kehl told TNT Sports. “I know that the players feel pretty welcome at Dortmund. They feel at home, especially Jadon and he knows our club pretty well and I think it was a good decision to take them in winter. But this is something for the future, let’s keep the focus on today.” Speaking last month, Maatsen spoke of a ‘special connection’ upon joining Borussia Dortmund, while Sancho is back at the club for a second spell. Since his return, Sancho has scored three and created two in 17 games across all competitions, including a phenomenal display against Paris Saint-Germain in the reverse fixture.

Thank you for your interest in the BvB London fan community podcast as every week the focus of the show will be on exploring a facet of football life with a focus on Borussia Dortmund by talking to experts, fans, and players and coaches. People, including journalists, who make up the football world including decision makers and who know the football world and the world of BVB well. The aim of the podcast is to make Bundesliga, BVB and international football more accessible. On today's podcast our guests are  'Stamford Chidge' who is a board member of the shadow board at Chelsea FC and a season ticket holder, the man who calls Hampshire his home, is also the host of the Chelsea Fancast podcast. Our second guest is Kevin Burgess a Leicester-based BVB and Liverpool FC fan, football blogger and member of the London fan club. On the show we preview Borussia Dortmund's Champions League double-header against 6-time English champions Chelsea FC. Between the 15th February and 7 March Borussia will play a double header against 'The Blues' in their first ever fixtures in 118 years. So what can BVB expect? Seldom have the 2021 Champions League winners been more unpredictable. Thomas Tuchel is out Graeme Potter is in, results are very mixed, and the squad is one of the most impressive ever assembled in world football lets take a look: 1. How Chidge came to be a CFC fan, introduction to member Kevin and highlights of their fan lives. 2. A brief history of Chelsea FC, 3. The great and the less great who have played for Chelsea including Christian Pullisic, Pierre-Emeric Aubameyang and the ones who got away. 4.

On today's podcast our guest is Ed Aarons who is deputy Sports Editor at The Guardian newspaper and a Crystal Palace season ticket holder. The long-awaited white paper on reform of the English game, a working document which was based on a consultation which took almost two years of fan groups, including the Dortmund Fan Club London, and a wide section of participants in the football industry including managing directors, club owners, journalists, former players, fans and supporters groups. Among the key points the policy paper seeks to address, which we discuss on the podcast, are the following: 1. Financial sustainability: The introduction of a regulator will ensure closer monitoring and higher standards of reporting. Clubs will be required to ensure they have reserves and plans to ensure they can maintain the business in the instance of financial shocks. 2.Suitability of owners: Directors and club owners will be more closely vetted for propriety and there will be commensurate licensing conditions to ensure higher standards. This will also affect the over-gearing of buy-outs and unsustainable debt levels. 3. Fan engagement: Clubs will be required to consult with fans and there will be minimum standards of engagement including fans having a say, a veto over changes to historically important aspects of the club such as colours, badge and kit colours and geographic location. 4. Breakaway leagues: The white paper aims to protect the football pyramid in the English game and exclude 'closed shop' type leagues like the proposed 'European Super League'. 5. Financial distribution: The white paper aims to ensure a fairer distribution of income across the clubs in the English football pyramid and give power to the regulator to impose workable solutions on the clubs. 6. Compliance/sanctions: The regulator will have the power to take action including withdraw licences from clubs ignoring breaches of conditions of licensing. The regulator will cover 116 clubs in the top five tiers: The Premier League, The Championship, League 1, League 2 and the National League of the English professional game. A second part to the podcast series on the governance of German football will appear here shortly. The football match to raise money for the DEC British Red Cross Earthquake Appeal 2023 which is mentioned takes place on Tuesday 7th March at 3pm at the Linford Christie Stadium, White City.

Guter Fussball is a Germany-based initiative which encourages clubs to act in a more environmentally friendly way. The guys at Guter Fussball have created a football table with a difference in their table scientific studies are supplemented with quantitative, qualitative and anecdotal data to produce a table where clubs are measured not just by points on the playing field but sorted based on their values. The values include fan participation, environmental sustainability, fair play, tolerance, credibility and gender equality of opportunity.

Abel also writes for France Football and Spielverlagerung and is a life-long fan of BVB. On tonight's show, Ben and Abel review the 20-21 season. The club has been through a real roller coaster of a season the likes of which we have not seen since 17-18, under Austrian interim coach Peter Stöger who took over from the sacked Peter Bosz, when 'Die Schwarz-Gelben' finished in an impressive Champions League qualifying 4th place. 1. A third season under Swiss coach Lucien Favre after narrowly missing out on the title by 2 points in an impressive 18-19 but 16 points in 19-20. Was the club's trust in Favre the right move? 2. Impressive results but conceding stupid numbers of goals, why issues with set pieces are still the issue and the backline is still the issue but do BVB have talent in the back-line to come how much of an issue is Nico Schulz really? 3. The DFB Pokal campaign this season did we overachieve? Paderborn proves a bigger threat than expected and taking it to new coach Marco Rose's "Gladbach plus a preview of RB Leipzig and the semifinal. 4. Former assistant Edin Terzic takes over from Favre midseason coming from only having experience of being an assistant with Besiktas and West Ham United. How good has Terzic really done? Is Edin destined for greater things? 5. Are BVB still the number 2 team in the Bundesliga or have the scales shifted toward RB Leipzig at least this season? 6. What positions should BVB be focussing on in the summer, can we hold on to Haaland and Sancho the dynamic duo and initial thoughts on what Marco Rose might bring. 7. Predictions for the league finish and the DFB Pokal. Abel Meszaros can be found on social media at Twitter@BundesPL.

Gentenaar was reserve keeper to Roman Weidenfeller at BVB in 2005/06 under Bert van Marwijk in a season when 'Die Schwarz-Gelben' finished seventh players at that time included Metzelder, Rosicky, Dede and Sahin. The topic of the show today is the proposed break-away European football league the European Super League which brings together 15 top European clubs including the two big clubs from Manchester, Milan and Madrid clubs plus Juventus, Tottenham, Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea. These clubs will under the proposed model play in an annual fixed pool of clubs plus a meagre 5 clubs who qualify playing a seasonal tournament with no relegation nor promotion. The 'ESL' is a major challenge to the UEFA Champions League and Europaleague and could be highly damaging to the national leagues across Europe and is highly controversial amongst supporters. Borussia Dortmund have issued a statement saying that they will not take part as have Bayern Munich and no other Bundesliga clubs have been invited but what will happen next? Will the ESL succeed? Will German clubs be drawn into the 'big business league'? 1. European Super League what is it about? Who is behind it? 2. What impact will the ESL have on national leagues, cups and Champions League? 3. Could this benefit top clubs in smaller national leagues like Celtic, Ajax or Anderlecht? 4. How will players and the football industry react to the possibility of bans from playing for their national teams? 5. Is the ESL nothing more than an exhibition league with no incentive for fans to follow it? Or an improvement on the Champions League? 6. Could this proposal bring a benefit to historically big clubs in small leagues like Holland, Scotland and Belgium? 7. What is the business sense for clubs taking part? Will the fixed income from the tournament make managing the business of running clubs more effective off-setting financial risk and giving clubs the chance to plan better? 8. What is the current position of Borussia Dortmund fans and the wider community of supporters across football how should they react to this development? The European supporters federation, which this fan club belongs to, mentioned in the show is the FSE Football Supporters Europe whose position on the Super League can be found at: https://www.fanseurope.org/en/news/news-3/2414-fse-condemns-european-super-league-plans.html Super League update following days of fan protests and legal action by UEFA 12 clubs including all the English Premier League teams have withdrawn and only Juventus, Barcelona and Real Madrid remain of the original 15 clubs. UEFA is promising reform of the Champions League, fans remain highly sceptical to be continued....

It's all change at the Westfalenstadion and with the unrest amongst players and fans alike at the recent string of poor results and only 1 win in the last 6 league games and disappointing draws against both Mainz and Hoffenheim teams which BVB would normally expect 6 points from these home fixtures the head has been on interim coach Edin Terzic. With key injuries most importantly Axel Witsel in midfield and a defence which has conceded 31 goals already by matchday 21 is looking decidedly critical even accounting for the absence of first-choice keeper Roman Bürki and Dan and centre back Axel Zagadou. Second choice keeper Marvin Hitz has looked poor under pressure and an impressive Thomas Delaney has not been helped by Emre Can having to play in defence and Mo Dahoud being in such poor form. The club is also going through financial concerns with debts of €70m and players still on reduced wages there have been no winter signings, only U17 international striker Julian Rijkhoff coming in from Ajax Amsterdam to join the academy. Still playing behind closed doors Borussia is missing the crucial 12th man and looking the worse for it now 16 points behind Bayern and of more concern, 6 points from 4th placed VFL Wolfsburg. The agreement with Borussia Mönchengladbach coach for a three-year contract could not have come at a better time but who is Marco Rose and what is at stake this season and for the Leipzig born incumbent coach? On today's show, our guests are Sascha Staat a German football journalist who works for Ruhrnachrichten Dortmund's main newspaper as well as Eurosport and DAZN TV channels. 1. Current season BVB lie in sixth place in the table and are far off the mark in terms of a champions league place. The defence is far from stable and players like Marco Reus are not in the form to provide leadership. Why the instability? 2. The Roman Bürki enigma, have the weaknesses returned or are the goals being conceded a result of the instability crucially at right and left-back in defence. 3, The pressure is on Mats Hummels but is the pressure beginning to take away his enthusiasm? What should be the ideal line-up at Centre-back? Where should the constant Raphael Guerreiro be playing and which of the current defenders should be on Rose's for sale list this summer? 4. What are issues in midfield without Axel Witsel? Can Borussia rely on Thomas Delaney? Where should Can be playing? Pundit and former international Lothar Matthäus says a player like Matthias Sammer is missing but which players could fill that gap from the current squad? 5. Marco Reus has had uncharacteristic poor form and failed to lead the team in several matches, but is there too much reliance on 17-year-old Jude Bellingham who has had to hit the ground running. Giovanni Reyna has been a revelation but is now rumoured to be on the selling list, he has looked physically less than assertive but would that be a good move. 6. Enter Youssoufa Moukoko could he replace the incredible Erling Haaland, a striker who has scored more times than games played in since joining 1 year ago. Could BVB manage without Haaland and what else is in reserve? 7. What can be expected from Marco Rose in terms of tactical changes, what has been learnt from his style of coaching at RB Salzburg and Borus Thank you for your interest in the BvB London fan community podcast as every week the focus of the show will be on exploring a facet of B​orussia Dortmund's life by talking to experts and former participants of the club's life.

<strong>Football</strong>: Bastian Schweinsteiger was the hero for Germany as they officially ended the 2006 World Cup as the third-best side after demolishing Portugal 3-1 in Stuttgart

Bastian Schweinsteiger was the hero for Germany as they officially ended the 2006 World Cup as the third-best side after demolishing Portugal 3-1 in Stuttgart. The host nation may have been craving for the final, but they proved they were still hungry in the 'mini-final'. Schweinsteiger, who was left out of Germany's semi-final after a perceived dip in form, showed he was back to his best with two excellent strikes in the 56th and 78th minutes. In between, his free-kick also tempted Petit to put through his own goal and the standing ovation when Schweinsteiger left the field to be replaced by Thomas Hitzlsperger was more than merited. Nuno Gomes headed in a late consolation, but Portugal ultimately had no answer to neither Schweinsteiger, nor his Bayern Munich team mate Oliver Kahn, who was phenomenal in the Germany goal. The hosts made a bright start with the pressure generated by the home fan's expectations in previous games no longer evident. Third place in the World Cup may still have been at stake, but there was more of a willingness to entertain the fervent supporters among Jurgen Klinsmann's men than to win without providing a spectacle. While Germany may not be renowned for being the most technically gifted side in the world, they were nonetheless learning from their opponents Portugal, who with the fleet-footed Cristiano Ronaldo and vision of Simao Sabrosa were also looking to please the crowd. Nuno Valente, Deco and Pauleta forged the opening chance of the game with some neat interplay which was copied by Lukas Podolski, Miroslav Klose and Bernd Schneider within seconds. Neither side were able to provide the finish the build-up play had deserved, though. Philipp Lahm created the next chance of the game with a typical raid down the wing, tempting Nuno Valente into a rash challenge. Bernd Schneider sent the resulting free-kick into the danger area and the ball finally fell to the feet of Sebastian Kehl on the edge of the area, but the Borussia Dortmund midfielder's shot took a slight deflection as it flew agonisingly wide of the post. Miroslav Klose, with five goals the tournament's top scorer, was looking to engrave his name on the golden boot award, but in doing so, failed to spot his strike partner Lukas Podolski as he sent in a weak effort. He would certainly have heard Podolski's scream after the shot failed to ruffle the back of the net, however. Simao and Pauleta were at the centre of Portugal's most dangerous play and, with fifteen minutes gone, they combined to give Germany goalkeeper Oliver Kahn his first moment of anxiety. The latter beat the offside trap to latch onto the former's delicate through ball and looked to place his shot into the far corner, but Kahn dived low to his left to make the save. Portugal were growing in confidence and the impressive Kehl had to be alert to avert the danger after Deco looked for a colleague across goal. Kehl then showed his attacking prowess, feigning to shoot with his right foot, shifting the ball back onto his left and then attempting to lob Ricardo from 20 yards, but the last line of the Portugal defence back-tracked to tip the effort over the crossbar. Podolski was named FIFA's young player of the tournament on Friday and he tried to justify the choice with a fizzing 20-yard free-kick which Ricardo, in self-defence more than anything, fisted away. Simao was Portugal's creative outlet on the left wing instead of Luis Figo and he spotted Deco, once again given far too much room inside the Germany penalty area. The Barcelona playmaker turned to curl his shot just over the angle of post and crossbar. It may have been a goalless first half, but it held a lot of promise for the second 45 minutes and, like in the first half, Germany were soon in the mood to attack. This time, however, they were rewarded as Schweinsteiger fired a 25-yard drive past a nervy Ricardo. Within minutes, the German fans were off their seats once again, this time applauding Philipp Lahm's volley from Klose's far-post cross which sailed just over the bar, while Schweinsteiger once again sent the emotions among the 52,000 sell-out crowd wild. The Bayern Munich midfielder may have been frustrated at his omission from the starting eleven against Italy and he seemed intent on taking it out on the ball, not that anybody was complaining. Portugal's half-time substitute Petit made the unlucky intervention which sent Schweinsteiger's low driven free-kick past his own goalkeeper as Germany doubled their advantage. Goal number three was equally impressive and it could be nobody but Schweinsteiger who handed Germany victory with another stunning strike. An almost carbon-copy of his first goal allowed Klinsmann and co. to celebrate third place in the World Cup. Ricardo at least this time could not be blamed, such was the power and precision in Schweinsteiger's shot. As Germany, and in particular Schweinsteiger, appeared to be finding it easy to find the back of the net, it was not for the lack of trying that Portugal were unable to do likewise. Kahn was eager to make up for his mistake which handed Brazil the World Cup four years ago and he made several inspirational saves to keep out Deco and Cristiano Ronaldo. The Germany captain, in perhaps his last ever Germany appearance, played his part in a memorable evening for Germany, although he could do little to stop Nuno Gomes from heading in a consolation late on. All that remains now is for Klinsmann to decide on his future, but as his name echoed around the Gottlieb-Daimler Stadium, turning his back on emotions such as those the host nation have experienced at the 2006 World Cup would take a lot of guts.

Borussia Dortmund have denied media reports that their new signing Serhou Guirassy will be sidelined for a long period. "Serhou was and is on schedule. He trains here in Bad Ragaz (in Switzerland, at the team's training camp) and is already running again. Of course he's doing that without a splint," sporting director Sebastian Kehl told dpa.

The Bild newspaper recently said that Guirassy wouldn't be fit to play until October due to his knee problem, which delayed his transfer from VfB Stuttgart to Dortmund. Guirassy is expected to replace Niclas Füllkrug, who completed a transfer to West Ham.

German club Borussia Dortmund is the latest football team to join Superleague Formula Рthe new motor racing championship that combines the passion of international football with the excitement of top-class motorsport. The former Champions League winners join AC Milan, PSV Eindhoven, Olympiacos and FC Porto in the championship which will kick off in August next year. The striking yellow and black livery of the German club's entry was unveiled in Dortmund this afternoon by club coach Thomas Doll, captain Christian W̦rns plus leading players including Tinga, Sebastian Kehl and Roman Weidenfeller on the eve of Borussia Dortmund's season opening festivities at Signal Iduna Park. More than 30,000 fans are expected to see the club's colors adorning the 750-horsepower single seater racecar at the free public event tomorrow at the venue that hosted a semi-final of last year's World Cup. The public open day precedes the club's friendly against AC Roma on Sunday. Launched in April this year, Superleague Formula will feature more than 20 of world football's leading rivals doing battle on top class race tracks throughout Europe. For its debut season, six championship rounds will be staged with each race weekend featuring two races Рone with a complete reverse grid. Despite enduring a tough 2006/07 season, Borussia Dortmund is one of Germany's most successful clubs with six German championships to its credit Рthe most recent being in 2002. The club won the UEFA Championship League in 1997 (one of only three German clubs to achieve the honor) and the Cup Winners Cup in 1966. Borussia Dortmund also won the DFB Pokal (German Cup) on two occasions in 1965 and 1989. Club CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke was joined at the unveiling by Superleague Formula President and CEO Alex Andreu. "We are proud to be the first German club joining Superleague Formula and to have our colors involved in competition against the biggest football clubs in the world Рbut now, on the race track," Watzke said. "Football and motorsport are very well suited." Borussia Dortmund-goalkeeper Roman Weidenfeller is excited by the idea: "Both sports are quick, spectacular and dynamic. Our car looks great and if it goes as well as it looks then we'll have lots of success". The Superleague Formula championship will feature high performance single seater cars built by Panoz/Elan Motorsports in the US. The 750-horsepower V-12 engines are being developed by MCT in the UK. "We are delighted to welcome Borussia Dortmund to the championship and thrilled to add another country of football fans to the Superleague Formula family," Andreu said. "Germans are very passionate about football and motorsport and having Borussia Dortmund as part of the championship is a perfect addition. Signal Iduna Park is the largest football stadium in Germany and the club has an incredible amount of season-ticket holders. "I am certain the support for the striking yellow and black Borussia Dortmund car is going to be very strong." With five clubs already signed to the join the championship, Superleague Formula officials believe the confirmed grid is set to grow quickly in the upcoming months. "We are at a very advanced stage of contract negotiations with many of our target clubs and hope to make further announcements very soon," Andreu said. "With clubs from Italy, Portugal, Greece, the Netherlands and now Germany secured, we expect this list of countries to grow quite quickly."

"Sebastian reminds me of the young Matthaus," says his Borussia Dortmund team-mate Jurgen Kohler, who played alongside the great man in the national team. "He is very confident in his own ability, and always at his best when the pressure is on, and those are the characteristics which make the difference between good and very good players. "Sebastian's main strength is his enormous self-confidence. It comes naturally to him, and the other players respect it because he backs it up with his performances on the pitch." What is self-confidence to admirers, though, is arrogance to detractors, and Kehl has plenty of them, largely because of his single-minded determination to get to the top. At the end of 2001, while still with Freiburg, the 22-year-old caused an uproar when he broke a pre-contract agreement with Bayern Munich to join Borussia Dortmund, where he was guaranteed the first team football that Jeremies might have denied him in Munich. The news that he had already agreed to leave infuriated Freiburg fans, his decision to spurn Bayern made him a hate-figure in Munich, and only a public apology ended the threat of legal action from the European champions. Yet for all the unpleasantness, Kehl has had little trouble settling in at the Westfalenstadion. "Although he only joined us a short time ago, he has started to take control on the pitch and command the other players," said Dortmund skipper Stefan Reuter. And that willingness to take responsibility and direct affairs is precisely what Germany have been lacking for years. "He behaves like someone well beyond his age, like a player who has seen and won it all," said national coach Rudi Voller after the 7-1 victory over Israel in February. He behaves, in other words, just like Matthaus.

The German Football Museum in Dortmund is the national museum of German football. We are more than a museum. We are a world of experience for the whole family. A cultural place of the past, present, and future of football. Vivid – emotional – interactive. The Bundesliga, club football, and, of course, the triumphs of the German National Team – we have all that and more. Football fans from all over the world go on an emotional journey. Our motto: One ball – 1,000 stories. Your journey begins with the trip to the stadium. Through the players´ tunnel, you reach the “Miracle of Bern”. The original ball from the 1954 World Cup final awaits you along with the “Heroes of Bern”. The very players, who have won the first World Cup title with their coach Sepp Herberger. Whether the ball at Wembley was truly behind the goal line is investigated at an interactive media station. If the Football God at Bloemfontein finally had some mercy in 2010. Why Lars Ricken was damned to tip the ball and Rahn had to score from the backfield. Golden Generation: An impressive video installation in German on a gigantic ball traces the steps from the 2006 home World Cup to the 2014 World Cup win in Rio de Janeiro. After the 3D cinema (German and English), the treasury with our collection of original World Cup Winner´s Trophies and European Championship Cups is waiting for you. Curiosities, highlights and things from the Bundesliga and club football you have never seen before are waiting to be explored. Finally, the masterpiece in our permanent exhibition is the German football HALL OF FAME.

He spent over 13 years as a Borussia Dortmund player, wearing the captain's armband for six seasons and lifting three Bundesliga trophies. Now, Sebastian Kehl is tasked with restoring his club to their former glory as he replaces the long-standing Michael Zorc as BVB's sporting director. "I have felt very closely connected to this great club for almost 20 years now," Kehl declared in June 2021, when he was announced as Zorc's successor. "I'm proud to be given the opportunity to shape the sporting future of Borussia Dortmund." Before looking to what lies ahead, however, bundesliga.com invites you on a trip down memory lane to get a clearer picture of the man who will be looking to take the Black and Yellows back to the summit of the German game. 1) He chose Dortmund over Bayern 'The summit of the German game' can usually be defined in two words: Bayern Munich. And yet Kehl rejected a lucrative offer from the record Bundesliga champions in the summer of 2001, preferring to join Dortmund midway through the following season. Kehl turned pro with Hannover in 1998, but really started making a name for himself at Freiburg (2000-02), where he was deployed as a sweeper by legendary coach Volker Finke. Drawing comparisons with the great Franz Beckenbauer, Kehl helped the Black Forest club reach the UEFA Cup in 2000/01, as they finished sixth in the Bundesliga. He also earned his first call-up to the Germany squad, making his international debut under Rudi Völler in May 2001. Watch: Kehl's top 5 Bundesliga goals Bayern and Dortmund were soon engaged in a tug of war to secure the services of the Hessen native, who was then just 21 years old. He eventually opted for the latter, penning a four-year deal with BVB in January 2002. "I'm delighted to have him," said then BVB coach Matthias Sammer, who previously occupied the same sweeper position as Kehl. "I'm counting on him performing right away." Sammer would not be disappointed. Kehl played all but one of the remaining 16 Bundesliga games for Dortmund that term, helping them secure the title just ahead of Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern. It was the first time they had lifted the Meisterschale since 1995/96, when Sammer himself was anchoring the midfield in the same libero position as Kehl. 2) Jürgen Klopp made him Dortmund captain Kehl was the new kid on the block when he joined Dortmund at the start of 2002, but by the time Jürgen Klopp was appointed as coach in summer 2008, the battling midfielder had established himself as one of the squad's leaders – and a firm fan favourite. 'Sebastian, please stay and sign!' read one BVB banner during the 2005/06 campaign, a few months before Kehl's contract was set to expire – and he did exactly that, extending through to 2008. "I belong here," he confessed, saying he had 'followed his heart' despite offers from abroad. "I identify with the club and the supporters. I believe we can make a step forward and reach European competition again in the next few years." In the mid-2000s the club had struggled to keep pace with the Bundesliga frontrunners. After their title win of 2001/02, they finished third and sixth in their next two seasons under Sammer. Dutch coach Bert van Marwijk could only manage successive seventh places, before Dortmund laboured to ninth and 13th place – their worst finish in 20 years – under Thomas Doll. But their fortunes were set to change when Klopp came on board in 2008, after an impressive seven-year stint in charge of Mainz. One of his first major decisions was to give 28-year-old Kehl the captain's armband, to succeed retiring skipper Christian Wörns. "When you think of Dortmund, Sebastian is the first player who comes to mind," Klopp explained. "He's an integral member of the team. And football-wise, he has all the attributes to lead from the front." Slowly but surely, Klopp began to work his magic at the Signal Iduna Park, lifting BVB to sixth place in 2008/09 and fifth in 2009/10, before finally guiding them to another Bundesliga title in 2010/11. Kehl remained one of his most trusted lieutenants throughout, although injuries prevented him playing a major role on the pitch in Klopp's first title-winning season. He was a much more central figure as they defended the Bundesliga crown in 2011/12, before beating Bayern Munich 5-2 in the DFB Cup final to complete a memorable double. "Jürgen has a special charisma, he's a very positive man," Kehl once told the Daily Mail, after Klopp traded Dortmund for Liverpool in 2015. "He carries everybody with him, it's a special type of people management. But he's not walking around with a magic wand, you know? He's following his plan and just wants everyone to give their best. You feel it every day. It's hard work." Watch: Klopp's Dortmund years 3) He suffered a series of injury setbacks Hard work was something Kehl became all too familiar with over the course of his 13 and a half years with Dortmund, especially when it came to his physical fitness. By the time he retired in 2015, he had amassed 362 appearances for Dortmund in all competitions – but without a host of injury woes, it could easily have been closer to 500. Kehl was plagued by all manner of problems during his career – thigh, knee, ankle, shoulder, hamstring, groin, you name it – but his most significant injury was one of the earliest. On 12 August 2006, Dortmund played Bayern in the season opener at Allianz Arena, and in the 19th minute Hasan Salihamidzic slid in on Kehl with his studs up, causing a deep laceration to his knee. BVB thought their star midfielder would only be out for three or four weeks, but the injury was worse than expected, requiring surgery and lengthy rehabilitation. Kehl barely featured for the rest of the season as Dortmund finished ninth, with one of their shareholders describing it to Sport-Bild as "the Bayern tackle that cost us 10 million euros". Kehl publicly stated that he didn't feel Salihamidzic meant to injure him on purpose, but it was definitely a turning point in his career. He only made 14 Bundesliga appearances in the following campaign, 2007/08, and never played for Germany again. The last of his 31 caps for Die Mannschaft came in the third-place play-off at the 2006 FIFA World Cup, a 3-1 victory over Portugal. He also scored two international goals, in friendlies against Hungary and Serbia and Montenegro. In a curious twist, Kehl and Salihamidzic will occupy the same role at Dortmund and Bayern in 2022/23. The former Bosnia and Herzegovina international has acted as sporting director for the Bavarians since July 2017, filling a gap left vacant by Sammer the previous summer. 4) He has been recognised for his charity work Kehl’s work ethic on and off the pitch extends beyond football, the 42-year-old happy to use his platform to help the greater good by involving himself extensively in charity work and social projects. That is perhaps a direct result of his religious upbringing, and he remains a devout Catholic to this day, and even met Pope John Paul II in 2005. Since 2003 he has been part of the ‘School without racism, school with courage’ project that aims to promote diversity in classrooms, sponsoring two schools in Lauterbach and Fulda. Kehl is also involved in the 'Fair Play Hessen' scheme, along with Steffi Jones, promoting integration, tolerance and fair play. Not only that but the former midfielder has been a member of the board of trustees of the DFL Foundation since 2019. In recognition of his efforts, Kehl was awarded the Hessian Order of Merit for his charity and social work in early 2020, an accolade he described as “a great honour”. "Hessen has produced many outstanding footballers and among them is undoubtedly Sebastian Kehl,” said Volker Bouffier, Prime Minister of Hesse state at the time. “With all the great successes he has achieved in his career, it is always important to him to help his state. Sebastian Kehl is particularly committed to diversity, tolerance and fair play. He thus makes a contribution to the cohesion of our society. With that in mind, I am pleased to present him with the Hessian Order of Merit ribbon today." 5) He wants to take BVB back to the top Make no mistake, however: Kehl’s generosity of spirit and sense of social responsibility mask a steely will to win; he is very much both the floating butterfly and the stinging bee. After hanging up his boots in 2015, Kehl completed a qualification in management at UEFA, collected valuable work experience at the German Football Association (DFB) and the German Football League (DFL), and also completed his UEFA A Licence in coaching. All of which paved the way for him to accept a newly created role of Head of the Licensed Player Division at Dortmund in June 2018. If that sounds like vague corporate speak, that’s because it is: in reality he was working closely with Zorc on everything from first-team squad planning and recruitment to youth team development, essentially being groomed for the job he has now been given. "Sebastian has done a good job over the past few years and has already been able to prepare himself for his future role as BVB's sporting director," said Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke. "Of course he has big shoes to fill, but we are convinced that Sebastian has the necessary tools for his job." Zorc believes the same: "Our work together was characterised by great trust from day one. Sebastian has gradually become involved in all the relevant areas of a sporting director. I appreciate his work very much. I think it’s a logical decision that the management has now decided to make him my successor in the summer of 2022.” Now armed with the necessary qualifications and experience, both as a player and in the boardroom, Kehl is eager to kick on and help Dortmund consistently pick up silverware. "Creating the conditions for BVB to continue to be successful in the future is both an aspiration and an obligation for me," he said. Having held his own in Dortmund’s midfield despite the emergence of the likes of Nuri Sahin and Sven Bender back in the day, that same drive and determination at management level can only be a good thing for BVB.

https://www.getfootballnewsgermany.com/2022/sebastian-kehl-decides-on-trio-for-lead-scouting-role-at-borussia-dortmund/
As reported by Ruhr Nachrichten following the departure of Markus Pilawa, the chief scout at Borussia Dortmund, to Bayern Munich in June, Sebastian Kehl and the senior management team have decided that responsibilities in the scouting department will no longer be concentrated on one manager but carried out by a scouting team with equal responsibility. Those three are Eduard Graf, Laurent Busser and Sebastian Krug. Graf has worked for BVB since 2014 and has many years of successful work as chief scout in Dortmund’s academy. The 33-year-old initially worked as an assistant coach for the U19s. He later worked as a scout and most recently as chief scout in the academy reporting directly to Lars Ricken. Amongst the talents Graf is credited with identifying is Jadon Sancho. He’s joined by Busser (52), who was with Bayern’s scouting department for 11 years before joining BVB in the summer. France-born Busser previously worked for Bayer Leverkusen and Hoffenheim and is principally credited with identifying Kingsley Coman. The third in the team responsible for scouting is Sebastian Krug, the former Schalke defender will have responsibility of identifying key talents for the club. 38-year-old Krug is the second manager with a Schalke background at the club; Peter Hermann who was assistant to Mike Büskens with the 2. Bundesliga champions last season, was appointed assistant manager of the first team by Edin Terzić in the summer. Chief Scout Pilawa had been in post since 2017 and was highly successful. He is credited with identifying talents including Jude Bellingham, Erling Haaland and Giovanni Reyna. Hertha Berlin had been negotiating with the former Bochum head of scouting but the Poland-born Pilawa chose instead controversially to sign with Dortmund’s main title rivals. The 45-year-old’s predecessor Sven Mislintat, who was known as ‘Diamond eye’ for his ability to identify outstanding players including Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Sokratis, left Dortmund for Arsenal in similar circumstances in 2017 following a fall out with then coach Thomas Tuchel.

Hans-Joachim Watzke is set to step down as CEO at Borussia Dortmund by 2025 and is already setting up the plan for his succession, one is to appoint a sports manager with Sport Bild reporting that the signs point towards sporting director Sebastian Kehl. The former Dortmund midfielder has already been key in the squad planning, not only in the past but for next season. Kehl has regularly explained to Watzke what his plans are for the squad, despite the fact there is no guarantee of Champions League football next season. A potential promotion could also impact the future of head coach Edin Terzic. It is widely known that Watzke is Terzic’s biggest supporter at Dortmund but Kehl is not convinced of the manager. Disagreements in the past when it comes to the squad are known and a promotion would give Kehl more power to make a decision on the future of the coach. It is likely that Kehl would bring in a manager who could be a close confidant. Sport Bild also reports that is it difficult to see Terzic remain as coach for next season. The club are in a race for fourth with RB Leipzig and with tough games against Bayern Munich, Stuttgart, Bayer Leverkusen and Leipzig on the horizon along with a difficult tie against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League quarter-finals the club are unlikely to come out of this run unscathed.

Fear The Wall
https://www.fearthewall.com/2024/8/2/24209053/is-julian-brandt-ready-to-be-that-guy
Julian Brandt is the longest serving Borussia Dortmund player. Let that sink in a bit. Losing Mats Hummels once was hard enough; losing him twice has been unbearable. And that’s a comfort compared to the departure of Marco Reus. BVB has long relied on a trusted core of veterans, each replaced by the next old head to keep a sense of identity and continuity in the team. Kehl gave way to Sahin and Kagawa, who passed the torch to Schmelzer, then Piszczek, and finally Reus. Something about Julian Brandt just doesn’t inspire those same feelings of nostalgia—why is that? Well, Brandt is not from an era of Borussen success. Among the players mentioned were Bundesliga winners and World Cup Champions. Players with accolades in the Black and Yellow. In the minds of some fans, players who played for Klopp. Julian Brandt is an ambassador for one of the most challenging period in BVB history, the years of Bayern domination and uncertain leadership in Black and Yellow. Brandt arrived alongside Thorgan Hazard and Mats Hummels in the summer of 2019. BVB had just given Bayern their best challenge for the title in seven years, and fans were optimistic that with the proper reinforcements, another challenge would be on the cards. Attention was immediately on the controversial return of Mats Hummels, and the acquisition of Brandt was appreciated but maybe not lauded. A poor 2020/2021 season turned many fans against Brandt, who struggled to exert his influence on the pitch and had poor chemistry with his teammates when he was afforded minutes. But Brandt kept his head down, not shying away from the challenge of success at Borussia Dortmund. It’s easy to overlook Julian Brandt in teams with Jude Bellingham, Gio Reyna, and Marco Reus. Brandt has regularly been shoved back to a number 8 position, shuffled out to the wings, or mashed and squished into roles he wasn’t designed for. Despite all his trials and tribulations, Brandt is coming off his third season with double-digit goals and assists, among Dortmund’s most prolific players. Brandt’s G/A numbers put him ahead of all those players listed, and Donyell Malen (and Karim Adeyemi, and Sebastien Haller), every season since 2021/2022. Dortmund’s attack is in serious flux this offseason, and the one constant, finally, is Julian Brandt. Nuri Sahin has almost no choice but to build his attack around Brandt, knowing that the official new #10 will be critical to gel the pieces of a new-look midfield and forward line. So Brandt will be important on the field, as he has been for the last three seasons. That’s not all it takes to be “that guy”, as they say. Can Brandt sell thousands of jerseys a year? Can he be the face next to the Borussia Dortmund logo on the halftime show of a Champion’s League match? Can he galvanize the youth of the Borussia Dortmund academy and Dortmund community to say “I want to play like Julian Brandt?” Maybe. The club is certainly doing its bit to support the cause. Brandt has been front and center in Dortmund’s summer campaign, signing jerseys and taking selfies with fans during the Asia tour, and starring in plenty of BVB training camp videos. His cool, steady persona is a lot like that of Marco Reus, and he has clearly matured into the responsibility the club expects him to shoulder. Tossing Brandt the #10 jersey was a definite sign of good faith. Part of me feels like Brandt is too blue-flame to be the face of Borussia Dortmund. But Marco Reus was the same way. Maybe it’s denial; there is no player in this side or in football who can “replace” Marco Reus for Borussia Dortmund. Reus has been the face of this club as long as I have supported it, and he was the reason I started following the club in the first place. But Brandt has all the talent, class, and leadership ability to be the face of this club, and the time is right for him to do it. This is going to be Julian Brandt’s Borussia Dortmund—let’s get behind it.

italiaspeed.com: FIFA FOOTBALL WORLD CUP
null
German dreams of reaching the FIFA World Cup Final on home soil died in Dortmund as two goals in the final moments of extra time carried Italy into the Final as 2-0 semi-final winners last night. With a penalty shoot-out looming, Fabio Grosso broke the deadlock in the 119th minute as he curled a left-footed shot past the despairing dive of Jens Lehmann from the right side of the penalty box. Substitute Alessandro Del Piero made sure of Italy's place in the Final when he beat Lehmann from close range in added time at the end of the extra period. The Match Italy knew they could not afford to take on Germany in a penalty contest. In FIFA World Cups German efficiency does not permit failure from 12 yards – they have come out on top in every penalty showdown they've contested while Italy have known only suffering: three defeats in three. So if the Azzurri were going to march on to Berlin on 9 July they had to do the business before the 120 minutes were up. The clock inside the Dortmund stadium showed 119 minutes when they struck. There was barely time for Germany to respond. But just to make sure, Italy broke away and scored again. The hopes of a home nation who have contributed so much to making this a successful FIFA World Cup were reduced to dust and carried away on the night air. The dream of a second triumph in their own tournament is no more. Instead it is Marcello Lippi's men who have the opportunity to put four FIFA World Cups in their locker. In their sixth Final, Italy will face either France or Portugal who meet in the second semi-final in Munich today. Had Germany prevailed they would have arrived in Berlin with their energy reserves severely depleted. Jurgen Klinsmann's brave troops had toiled through extra time and penalties to see off the challenge of Argentina. Another long, exhausting shift followed last night before Italy cut through just as time was running out. Their late show brought joy to a country where football means so much but which over recent weeks has had to look seriously at itself with an investigation into allegations of match-fixing threatening to relegate four of their biggest clubs. One of those is AC Milan who provided the Man of the Match in Andrea Pirlo. Another is Juventus who provided the second goalscorer last night in Alessandro Del Piero who applied a smart finish from Alberto Gilardino's neat pass. While the smart money insisted that the turmoil back home would affect Italy's chances here in a negative way, perhaps the opposite is true. Perhaps they have been motivated to pull out something extra. Perhaps, as Lippi has insisted all along, it’s had no effect whatsoever. It was a tough challenge for them last tonight with the host nation surfing a tidal wave of euphoria. The venue threatened to be significant as well: Germany had never lost in Dortmund, 14 games played before tonight and only Wales holding out for a draw. Against that they had never beaten Italy in four attempts at FIFA World Cups. Klinsmann chose to replace the suspended Torsten Frings with Sebastian Kehl, a Borussia Dortmund player who knows the special atmosphere of this stadium all too well. He also took the decision to stand down Bastian Schweinsteiger with Tim Borowski given the responsibility of making those left-midfield surges. Concern among the Italian supporters centred on whether their idols would stay strong with a gigantic prize so close at hand and in the face of such noise and fervour. They needn’t have worried, their creative players got on the ball from the first whistle and began posing questions. In the sides' friendly fixture in Florence in March Italy were two ahead inside seven minutes on their way to a 4-1 victory. It was never going to be like that here although Italy again had the better of the first half. Player of the Day: Andrea Pirlo – a cool head and pinpoint passing Pirlo rarely wasted a ball and Francesco Totti similarly bestrode the central areas with assurance. They were able to find their forward runners with regularity. But at the same time they needed Fabio Cannavaro to show his qualities at the back with a couple of timely challenges. It was nip and tuck all the way through the 90 minutes. Moment of the Day: The whistle to start extra time Italy knew they had to produce something special now. It revealed itself in their approach as immediately Alberto Gilardino screwed a shot against Jens Lehmann's left-hand post. A minute later Gianluca Zambrotta ran on to a loose ball but his rising effort kissed the bar on its way over. It was never going to reprise 1970 when the teams scored the highest number of extra-time goals (five in a 4-3 Italy victory) but these were close calls. Germany were also going all out for the win and Podolski will look back with regret on a headed chance he powered wide. Goal of the Day: Fabio Grosso: Italy 1-0 The breakthrough came as Pirlo bided his time in possession before ushering Grosso into space. The defender’s curling left-footer gave Lehmann no chance and with Del Piero adding a second it left Germany to contemplate the Match for Third Place while Italy have the Big Prize in their sights. Marcello LIPPI (Coach): It would have been unfair if we hadn't won or if it had gone to penalties. Our game was on a higher level to Germany's tonight – we hit the post and the bar, and we had the better of the play. The hosts can have no complaints. We are incredibly happy to have played here in Germany and won despite the fact that there were 60,000 supporters against us. That shows the true character of my team. They played with a lot of confidence and kept possession very well. I’m extremely satisfied and am sure that all Italian fans will be just as pleased today. It was clear that the end of the extra time would be decisive, which is why I brought on another attacker. As the game wore on, our quality began to shine through more and more, but nevertheless, we would still have been ready for penalties. We had a lot more of the possession overall and that gave us a certain confidence, even if we didn't manage to create that many chances. I’m pleased that Alessandro Del Piero was one of the players who helped to turn the match in our favour. That's not the end of it, though. Now we have to see who we will play in the Final, but we'll take whoever comes – we don't have any preferences. Andrea PIRLO (ITA), Budweiser Man of the Match: It was a fantastic game, absolutely overflowing with emotions. It was a childhood dream for me to play in a semi-final. I think that we earned our win today. We created a lot of chances, and we also definitely had the luck we needed. Gianluigi BUFFON: We wanted to reach the Final and we’ve done it. (Marcello) Lippi made sure we were really up for it. I thank my team-mates for having scored two wonderful goals. I started to think about penalties from the beginning of the second half. All our wins are down to team spirit. They say Italy reach the Final every 12 years, and we’ve done it this time as well. Now we hope to go on and win. Alessandro DEL PIERO: You could all see how happy I was when I scored. We were desperate to win. The quality of this team lies in the strength of the squad. I’m not thinking about Sunday yet, I’m going to enjoy this moment and reflect on what we’ve done up to now. The job isn’t finished yet though. Fabio GROSSO: What a feeling and it’s because of our team spirit and the work we’ve done. The match was very hard. We were already thinking about penalties when luckily I scored. I shed tears of joy, I just couldn’t believe it. The Final will be just as difficult and memorable. I dedicate the goal to my wife, son and everyone else who wants the best for me. Gianluca ZAMBROTTA: We’re happy, it’s what we wanted and it’s a great feeling knowing we’re in the Final. They put us under pressure but we also created lots of chances. At the end of the day, we’re a great team and we deserved to win.

Borussia Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl says he is expecting “movement” regarding Jude Bellingham’s future at the club. Bellingham has been linked with a move away this summer, with Real Madrid in pole position as it stands to sign the teenager, as reported by The Athletic. Kehl said last week that the club were yet to receive any proposals from any other clubs for the England international, but following the season’s conclusion, the Dortmund chief thinks the situation will be resolved in the “near future.” Karim Benzema to leave Real Madrid Latest transfer news from The Athletic Premier League summer transfer window 2023: Confirmed dates Transfer targets for every team in the Premier League this summer “I assume that there will now be movement,” said Kehl, speaking to Bild. “We know that the player is of great value to us, and that he has an ongoing contract with no release clause. Everything else will be revealed in the near future. We are preparing for different scenarios.” Bellingham joined the Bundesliga club in the summer of 2020 from Birmingham City. His current contract expires in the summer of 2025. The 19-year-old made 42 appearances for the club in all competitions this season, scoring 14 goals, providing seven assists and captaining the side on several occasions. But Dortmund missed winning their first Bundesliga title in 11 years after being held to a 2-2 draw by Mainz last Saturday, a game Bellingham sat out through injury. Where would Bellingham fit best? Mark Carey has looked in detail here at Bellingham’s skill set, focussing on his progressive passing, defensive work and attacking contributions and analysed which club he would be best suited to next with help from SentientSports… “At just 19 years old, the fact we need little convincing of Bellingham’s career trajectory shows just how talented he is — he is incredibly well-rounded in his playing profile. “Particularly as Edin Terzic has rotated between a 4-2-3-1, a 4-3-3 and a 4-1-4-1 system at Dortmund this season, Bellingham has showcased his versatility to play as a No 4, No 8 and No 10 — a “Jude of all trades”, if you will. “He is a generational talent, one of the most coveted midfielders in world football, and has earned the right to select his next career destination.” GO DEEPER Predicting which football club would best fit Jude Bellingham next season (Photo: Getty Images)

BERLIN (AP) - Germany's Torsten Frings was banned from the World Cup semifinals after a disciplinary committee found he punched Argentina forward Julio Cruz in a post-match fracas in the quarterfinals. FIFA's disciplinary committee announced the ban Monday, the eve of Germany's semifinal match against Italy at Dortmund. "We are disappointed," Germany team manager Oliver Bierhoff said. "Our opinion was that we laid down the reasons for an acquittal." The 29-year-old midfielder was banned for two matches - with one suspended for six months - and fined $4,075. That means Frings can return for either the World Cup final or the third-place playoff, but has a six-month probation period. If he commits any other kind of misconduct, he would have to serve the balance of punishment. Despite handing down a partially suspended ban because it found that Frings had been provoked, the disciplinary committee condemned his reaction as "tantamount to an assault." "The judgment pronounced on Frings was the result of the unequivocal television images showing his assault on Cruz. Neither the (German federation) nor the player could refute the objective evidence at hand," the committee said in a statement. But Bierhoff said Frings had been reacting to provocation. The referee, Lubos Michel, and his assistants were directly next to Frings and had not taken action against the German midfielder. "All we can do now is accept the decision. We will now concentrate on the Italy game and we are optimistic that Frings will return for the final," Bierhoff said. Frings' absence is a major setback for Germany. The midfielder has been one of Germany's best players, creating attacking opportunities and carrying out a lot of the defensive work in tandem with captain Michael Ballack. Frings is likely to be replaced by Sebastian Kehl, a rugged Borussia Dortmund midfielder with similar qualities. Argentina players Maxi Rodriguez and Leandro Cufre were cited after last Friday's match at Berlin and initially all the German players were cleared, but FIFA started an investigation into Frings' involvement after images of the skirmish were broadcast on TV in Germany and Italy. German media reported Monday that the Italian soccer federation gave FIFA the TV footage that sparked the investigation, hoping to have the hardworking midfielder suspended for the semifinal. FIFA and the Italian federation denied the reports. "Let me make it clear, there was no attempt whatever from the Italian federation to incite FIFA into doing something," FIFA communications director Markus Siegler said. "The footage was not presented to us from Italian TV stations, it was shown in Germany." The Italian soccer federation said it contacted its counterpart in Germany to deny the news reports. "We have done nothing, there has been no initiatives on our behalf against Germany," Italian federation chief Antonello Valentini told Sky Italia TV on Monday. "There is no effort on our behalf to create hostility, friction or to denounce anybody; We'll try to win the match on the field. We have no interest that Frings be punished if FIFA doesn't believe he should be." Frings was contacted late Sunday and asked to submit his account of the incident to FIFA's disciplinary committee by Monday morning. It took the committee more than four hours to find him guilty of violent conduct. Footage from the 24 TV cameras at Berlin's Olympic Stadium had to be reviewed because Frings' involvement did not appear on the official match broadcast, Siegler said. The disciplinary panel made the quick decision on Frings, hoping to reduce the impact on Germany's preparations for the semifinals. Cufre and Rodriguez have until Wednesday to present their cases. The disciplinary committee has not given a timeframe for when, if any, punishments are applied. England's Wayne Rooney, who was sent off for violent conduct in the quarterfinal loss to Portugal, has until Thursday to make a statement to the committee regarding his red card.

Goalkeepers Roman Weidenfeller - Germany - Age 30 * Mitchell Langerak - Australia - Age 22 Johannes Focher - Germany - Age 21 Defenders Lukasz Piszczek - Poland - Age 26 Nevan Subotic - Serbia - Age 22 * Mats Hummels - Germany - Age 22 * Marcel Schmelzer - Germany - Age 23 Marc Hornschuh - Germany - Age 20 Felipe Santana - Brazil - Age 25 Patrick Owomoyela - Germany - Age 31 Chris Lowe - Germany - Age 22 Midfielders Sebastian Kehl - Germany - Age 31 Sven Bender - Germany - Age 22 Mario Gotze - Germany - Age 19 * Shinji Kagawa - Japan - Age 22 Kevin Großkreutz - Germany - Age 22 Antonio Da Silva - Brazil - Age 33 Florian Kringe - Germany - Age 28 Jakub Blaszczyhowski - Poland - Age 25 Moritz Leitner - Germany - Age 18 Ivan Perisic - Croatia - Age 22 Ilkay Gundogan - Germany - Age 20 Damian Le Tallec - France - Age 21 Forwards Lucas Barrios - Paraguay - Age 26 * Mohamed Zidan - Egypt - Age 29 Robert Lewandowski - Poland - Age 22 * - Players with an aster-ix beside them show that they are a key player to the club. Goalkeepers 1 - Roman Weidenfeller - Without a doubt your number one keeper for the next few years to say the least, great shot stopper and also good in one on one situations. It seems like he has been at the club for years, which is correct, he arrived from Kaiserslautern in 2002, and since then he has been a key figure in the recent success of Borussia Dortmund. He also has good communication and Command of Area, which shows that he is domminant when coming out for crosses into the box. And with Roman in nets you can be reassured that he will do well and shouldn't make too many mistakes. 20 - Mitchell Langerak - Good back-up keeper to Roman in goal, however when Roman retires you should look to bring through a new keeper, as none of your other keepers are good enough for first choice in my opinion. Langerak has great reflexes, however doesn't have the best concentration, so may make some mistakes from time to time. Also his Command of Area and Communication are below average for what I look for in a keeper. 41 - Johannes Focher - Again another keeper that shouldn't become your first choice, although only 21 years old I would look to sell him on, Langerak is a good enough back up, and if you bring through a youth goalkeeper you can use him for your cup games if you wish, and hopefully develop him so that in the long run he can become no.1. * * * * * * * * * * * * Fullbacks 25 - Patrick Owomoyela - Injured at the start of the season for around 2 months, and at the age of 31 he is at the wrong end of the career. However he has been a Dortmund great over the years, and he adds vital experience to what is a young squad. With only 12 tackling, he isn't the best, and he has also lost pace over the years, and with recent injuries that he hasn't fully recovered from. He is a good crosser of the ball, but because he lacks pace if he pushes to far ahead then opposing wingers may exploit him, so it is probably best that you play him defensively. 26 - Lukasz Piszczek - Great Right Back going forward, however again not the best defensively. He lacks key attributes at defending (Concentration, Tackling) however he has great stamina, so expect to see him runnin gup and down your flank overlapping your winger, and putting in a good cross in the end. In the 2010 season Dortmund fans were frustrated with him at times, but now that he is a regular, and not making as many mistakes to when he first joined the club, he is starting to get the backing of the fans. 29 - Marcel Schmelzer - Your first choice Left Back, however he is injured for the start of the season. At the age of 23 he already has 4 caps for Germany, and with Phillip Lahm playing Left Back for Germany in recent years, it just shows what a pospect Marcel Schmelzer is. He has good defensive stats for his age, but also isn't afraid of pushing forward. Again another Full Back that has 19 stamina which is a great plus. Chris Lowe - Understudy to Marcel Schmelzer and should remain that way unless you can really develop him. He was touted to be one of the next biggest talents, however he is now 22, which is still young, but with Marcel Schmelzer only a year older than him and also a lot better than him, he shouldn't be starting Left Back against any of the big teams, and with only 10 stamina, 9 tackling, you should probably look to bring in someone else at Left Back. * * * * * * * * * * * * Centre Backs 4 - Nevan Subotic - Signed from Mainz in 2007, Nevan has been a ever present Centre Back at the club since joining Dortmund, the amount of games he has played for the club you would have thought he was a veteran by now. Good at heading the ball (17) and also Marking and Tackling (16) however his Concentration isn't the best, which is the major downfall he has, and one of the few things you can fault him on. He should be your starting Centre Back with Hummels, and if you can get the Concentration up then that is a major bonus. 15 - Mats Hummels - Bought in the same transfer window as Nevan, however didn't make as big of an impact when he came to the club. Hummels was a product of the Bayern Munich youth academy, and also has 7 caps for Germany. Nevan Subotic is the better header of the ball but Hummels is better mentally gifted. His decision making, concentration and also composure are all top notch, along with his tackling and marking. Dortmund is also his favoured club, and you should keep hold of him for as long as you can, future German and Dortmund captain. 28 - Marc Hornschuh - A product of Dormund's own youth academy, and he doesn't look to be too much of a bad one. He is already starting to show signs of maturity, with good teamwork and concentration for his age. You should look to give him about 15 games in the first season, whether or not you play him in the cup games that is up to you. 27 - Felipe Santana - Provides good back up to the team should Subotic or Hummels get injured, however in the long run I think that you should bring someone else in, but that is just my opinion as for some reason I am not the biggest fan of Santana. He is on relatively low wages of £20k a week though, so you should look to keep him in the first season, due to the strengthening of other areas where needed first. * * * * * * * * * * * * Defensive Midfielders 5 - Sebastian Kehl - Club Captain, and a great leader for the club. Joined Dortmund in 2001 and has had a great 10 years at the club, and one of the all time greats, and still good even though he has just turned 31. Great Team Player, doesn't lack in any of the mental stats for a defensive midfielder. Also a tough tackler of the ball. His Natural Fitness is on the low side (8) so don't expect him to play week in week out, and also it may take him longer to recover from his injuries, but none the less, a great player. 22 - Sven Bender - In the future this player is going to be even better than Kehl. Brought in from 1860 Munchen, his twin brother moved to Leverkusen. Very brave player and again another good tackler, doesn't like to do anything too adventurous, just likes to sit infront of the defence and break up opposing attacks. Has great stamina so yet again, works hard for the team. He is injured for the first six weeks, but if you can keep him fit after that, he will be vital to a good season ahead. * * * * * * * * * * * * Centre Midfielders 21 - Ilkay Gundogan - £3.4million summer signing from Nurnberg, brought in to fill the gap left by Nuri Sahin. Opted to play for Germany rather than Turkey. Good passer of the ball and also has a great first touch. Could certainly do well for the club if you use him correctly. 6 - Florian Kringe - Doesn't stand out in any way, shape or form, you should look to sell him at the first given opportunity, and also you can free up some wages as he is on £33k a week, which is far too much for the player that he is. 8 - Antonio Da Silva - Again nothing more than a back up player, 33 years old, but he is on relatively low wages. Again I would look to sell him, he has made limited appearances for the club, and with the youth coming through the ranks, it is better off getting rid of him. * * * * * * * * * * * * Attacking Midfields/Wingers 14 - Ivan Perisic - Summer signing from Club Brugge, and also their top scorer, good addition to the squad. Can play AML/AMC and also upfront. He has good teqnique but also has good finishing and heading of the ball. Good off the ball movement, he makes himself space which opens up other areas of the pitch, and also makes it difficult for defenders to track him. 19 - Kevin Großkreutz - One of the fans favourites, he never stops running and works hard for the team, might not be the best player or the fastest of players, but when he has possession of the ball expect something good to happen. He will often cut inside and either launch a cross field ball, or a through ball for the striker to latch on to. And when the team doesn't have possession then he will work hard as a team to get the ball back. 16 - Jakub Blaszczyhowski - A series of injuries has seen him decline over the years, although he is still only 25. Doesn't possess the greatest of stats technically but he is a fast player, he can knock the ball past the opponent and whip in a cross, but other than that don't really expect much more from him. Although a lot of people will choose not to I would probably look to sell him on. 23 - Shinji Kagawa - Possesses great agility and pace, can take a man on, but he is probably better known for the amount of assists that he can possibly get. A signing from Sakai FC in Japan for a nominal fee in today's economy of £300k, and could be one of the best buys ever. Since joining Dortmund he has been linked to clubs like Manchester United and Barcelona, however he came out stating that he would like to stay at Dortmund for the foreseeable future. 11 - Mario Gotze - At the young age of 19 he has already been capped at International Level. He has been at Dortmund since 2006 and has developed through the ranks of the youth academy, and now he is playing in the First Team of his boyhood club, think Wilshere and Arsenal. Give the ball to Mario and he can pick a pass, or he can dribble past a player and finish. He also has that added bonus of playing on the left, right or centre. Give him the free roam ability and he will cause a lot of damage. * * * * * * * * * * * * Strikers 18 - Lucas Barrios - A signing from Colo Colo in 2009, and Lucas has been the main striker since joining Dortmund, after getting 19 goals in his first season. He is out for 2-3 months to begin with at the start of the season. But if the defenders make a mistake then expect Lucas Barrios to bury any chances that he gets. A real goal poacher, and could easily get 30 goals in a season. 9 - Robert Lewandowski - The great Pole that Dortmund signed from Lech Poznan, in recent FM games this player has been lethal, and is still a threat now. He may not have the finishing of Lucas Barrios but you can't deny his commitment to getting in the right places, and also chasing down lost causes. Also 10 goals at International level does say a lot. 13 - Damien Le Tallec - Younger brother to ex-Liverpool player Anthony Le Tallec. Damien can play either on the right, or up front. He is a pretty average player, but is good back-up, and the fact that he can play on the right or up front is also an added bonus.

The game will be remembered for Schweinsteiger's strikes Two long-range efforts from Bastian Schweinsteiger ensured hosts Germany overcame Portugal to claim third place. Germany took the lead when midfielder Schweinsteiger cut in from the left and drilled in a swerving shot. The Germans went two up when the lively Schweinsteiger's free-kick was sliced into his own net by Armando Petit. Schweinsteiger sealed the victory with another rasping shot from 25 yards and Nuno Gomes headed Portugal a late consolation after a Luis Figo cross. Goalkeeper Oliver Kahn came in for his 86th cap, while Figo, who was rumoured to have had an argument with coach Luiz Felipe Scolari before the match, was relegated to the substitutes' bench. 606 VIEW Ken The hosts started positively with Sebastian Kehl going close with a shot through a crowded box that appeared to strike Nuno Valente's hand, while Klose slashed a drive wide on the counter. With only pride at stake, Portugal expressed the kind of freedom that has deserted their play in their previous two outings against England and France. But apart from Pauleta's curling shot from close range and Kehl's deft lob, neither team could muster the enthusiasm needed to seriously trouble the opposing keeper. The referee, who was officiating his first game for three weeks, made up for his inactivity by regularly awarding free-kicks for tame fouls. But the quality of the resulting set-pieces were poor, with only Lucas Podolski's stinging left-foot strike causing any problems. Luis Figo was brought on for his final cap by Luiz Felipe Scolari Michael Ballack's yawn from the bench summed up the first 45 minutes, but his boredom turned to delight 10 minutes after the restart when Schweinsteiger unleashed a fierce drive from long range. Portugal keeper Ricardo will have felt he could have done better with the shot that was driven straight at him. And five minutes later Germany were two up, with Schweinsteiger again at the heart of the attack. The midfielder's low free-kick cannoned off Petit as he tried to clear and ended up in the back of the helpless Ricardo's net. On 76 minutes the disappointing Pauleta made way for Figo who won his 127th and final cap for Portugal. But even he was unable to lift the despondent Portuguese and Schweinsteiger again found the net from outside the box with a sweetly-struck drive that gave Ricardo no chance. Both Miroslav Klose and Podolski were then withdrawn, leaving France striker Thierry Henry needing two to tie and a hat-trick to win the Golden Boot in Sunday's final. Figo's last act in his number seven shirt for Portugal was to lay on a goal for Gomes who headed in from close range. But the night belonged to the hosts who deservedly claimed third spot to the delight of the home support and coach Jurgen Klinsmann. Germany: Kahn, Jansen, Nowotny, Metzelder, Lahm, Schneider, Kehl, Frings, Schweinsteiger (Hitzlsperger 79), Klose (Neuville 64), Podolski (Hanke 71). Subs Not Used: Asamoah, Ballack, Borowski, Friedrich, Hildebrand, Lehmann, Mertesacker, Huth, Odonkor. Booked: Frings, Schweinsteiger. Goals: Schweinsteiger 56, Petit 61 og, Schweinsteiger 78. Portugal: Ricardo, Paulo Ferreira, Ricardo Costa, Meira, Nuno Valente (Nuno Gomes 69), Costinha (Petit 45), Maniche, Deco, Ronaldo, Pauleta (Figo 77), Simao. Subs Not Used: Boa Morte, Caneira, Miguel, Paulo Santos, Postiga, Quim, Tiago, Viana. Booked: Ricardo Costa, Costinha, Paulo Ferreira. Goals: Nuno Gomes 88. Att: 52,000 Ref: Toru Kamikawa (Japan). Fifa man of the match: Bastian Schweinsteiger TRIVIA This was Germany's third World Cup bronze medal. They have collected more than any other nation. Brazil, France and Poland finished third twice. Bastian Schweinsteiger became the 15th player to score twice in a single match at the tournament. Petit's own goal was the fourth at the 2006 World Cup. The 1954, 1974 and 1998 World Cups also witnessed four own goals. Germany used 22 players. Only goalkeeper Timo Hildebrand did not feature. Argentina and Spain also used 22 players during the 2006 finals. Costinha's yellow card was his fourth of the tournament, tying him with Ghana's Asamoah Gyan for most cautions received at the 2006 World Cup. The only other player ever to receive four yellow cards at a single World Cup was Bulgarian Zlatko Jankov in 1994. Portugal amassed a total of 24 yellow cards during the finals, breaking the record (23) that was held by Bulgaria since 1994. Trivia stats source: Infostrada Sports

We’re approaching 10 years since the 2006 FIFA World Cup, a tournament remembered for entertaining matches, absurd goals, and Wayne Rooney stamping on a man’s bollocks. Given that the anniversary itself is being overshadowed both by anniversary nostalgia for another great tournament (Euro 96) and by an actual tournament happening, I thought I’d do a retrospective team-by-team guide to the World Cup, to see how much/little has changed in the decade since: Group A 1. Germany – 9 (+6) 2. Ecuador – 6 (+2) 3. Poland – 3 (-2) 4. Costa Rica – 0 (-6) Germany Squad: 1. Jens Lehmann (Arsenal) 12. Oliver Kahn (Bayern Munich) 23. Timo Hildebrand (Stuttgart) 2. Marcell Jansen (Borussia Monchengladbach) 3. Arne Friedrich (Hertha BSC) 4. Robert Huth (Chelsea) 6. Jens Nowotny (Bayer Leverkusen) 16. Philipp Lahm (Bayern Munich) 17. Per Mertesacker (Hannover 96) 21. Christoph Metzelder (Borussia Dortmund) 5. Sebastian Kehl (Borussia Dortmund) 7. Bastian Schweinsteiger (Bayern Munich) 8. Torsten Frings (Werder Bremen) 13. Michael Ballack (Bayern Munich) 15. Thomas Hitzlsperger (Stuttgart) 18. Tim Borowski (Werder Bremen) 19. Bernd Schneider (Bayer Leverkusen) 22. David Odonkor (Borussia Dortmund) 9. Mike Hanke (Wolfsburg) 10. Oliver Neuville (Borussia Monchengladbach) 11. Miroslav Klose (Werder Bremen) 14. Gerald Asamoah (Schalke 04) 20. Lukas Podolski (Cologne) Captain: Michael Ballack Head Coach: Jurgen Klinsmann Never count out the Germans, etc. Germany entered their World Cup as many major tournaments hosts often do – in poor form, under enormous pressure and with expectations dropping. This reached the point where Jurgen Klinsmann, who had taken over as head coach following a disastrous showing at Euro 2004 under Rudi Voller, had seemingly already decided he was off at the end of the tournament regardless – maybe he realised that he would be found out as the massive fraud he is had he stayed on for another two years. And yet you look at this side and think “not much was expected of THIS team?” I suppose hindsight is a wonderful thing, and it’s true that numerous players here had been underestimated – probably due to the typical lack of knowledge English pundits have for players who don’t play in England. But even so, surely it was obvious there was some ability in this team. The team was fairly stable throughout the tournament. The goalkeeping situation that provoked the most controversy. Lehmann and Kahn’s relationship had reportedly reached Dutch levels of animosity when the former was given the starting job and the latter was left to bench-warm with Timo Hildebrand, although it cooled as the tournament progressed and Lehmann had an outstanding tournament. Kahn got a farewell appearance in the third place play-off; Hildebrand didn’t. See what being a miserable bastard gets you? As with numerous German teams past and present, the weakness is at full-back, since Philipp Lahm was and still is yet to be cloned. Lahm played on the left in 2006 (hence cutting inside onto his right foot for his wonder goal against Costa Rica), with Friedrich (typically a centre-back) filling in on the right. Metzelder was the stand-out centre-back, while the 21-year-old Mertesacker blossomed enough alongside him to earn a move to Werder Bremen after the tournament. The experienced Schneider and inexperienced Schweinsteiger operated on the flanks, with Ballack and Frings inside. Odonkor, a surprise call-up whose career would be ruined by injuries, was a regular off the bench. Klose finished as the tournament’s top scorer doing what Klose did best: score lots of scrappy goals from close range. Strike partner Podolski was as inconsistent as ever. The truth is, though Germany did actually play very well, they were a bit fortunate with their draw. They weren’t given a particularly tough group, and were lucky Sweden capitulated in the second round without offering much of a threat. Argentina should have beaten them; Italy eventually did. At no point did they ever look like the best team in the tournament, but they were the hosts which did count for something. And this was at least a fun team to watch. Ecuador Squad: 1. Edwin Villafuerte (Deportivo Quito) 12. Cristian Mora (LDU Quito) 22. Damian Lanza (Aucas) 2. Jorge Guagua (El Nacional) 3. Ivan Hurtado (Al-Arabi) 4. Ulises de la Cruz (Aston Villa) 5. Jose Luis Perlaza (Olmedo) 13. Paul Ambrosi (LDU Quito) 16. Giovanny Espinoza (LDU Quito) 18. Neicer Reasco (LDU Quito) 6. Patricio Urrutia (LDU Quito) 7. Christian Lara (El Nacional) 8. Edison Mendez (LDU Quito) 14. Segundo Castillo (El Nacional) 15. Marlon Ayovi (Deportivo Quito) 16. Luis Antonio Valencia (Villarreal, on loan to Recreativo Huelva) 19. Luis Saritama (Deportivo Quito) 20. Edwin Tenorio (Barcelona SC) 9. Felix Borja (El Nacional) 10. Ivan Kaviedes (Argentinos Juniors) 11. Agustin Delgado (LDU Quito) 21. Carlos Tenorio (Al-Sadd) 23. Christian Benitez (El Nacional) Captain: Ivan Hurtado Head Coach: Luis Fernando Suarez Ecuador were kind of a surprise, except they shouldn’t have been, given that this was such a weak group. Their progression was essentially sealed when they beat Poland, the only team likely to challenge them for second place in the group, in their first game. Suarez, later manager of Honduras in the 2014 World Cup, got them well-organised enough to concede few goals (2 clean sheets out of 4 is reasonable), and they were good enough going forward to score some goals. At the heart of the defence was Hurtado, who by the start of the tournament had accumulated 130 of his eventual 168 caps and was playing in Qatar (only another seven transfers to come, Ivan). He is now a left-wing politician. Alongside him at right-back was English-based De la Cruz, who is also now a left-wing politician. He is one of six of this squad to have played in England, the others being Kaviedes, Delgado, Castillo, Valencia and the late Chucho Benitez. As you can see, there were varying degrees of success. The wingers Valencia and Mendez were perhaps the most talented attackers in the team, the latter being one of the most underrated South American players of the decade and the only player to feature in all three of Ecuador’s World Cup squads (thanks to Walter Ayovi’s omission here). Carlos Tenorio and former Southampton striker Delgado grabbed two goals apiece, while former Crystal Palace striker Kaviedes celebrated his late goal against Costa Rica with a Spiderman mask, a tribute to his late team mate Otilino Tenorio who had died in a car crash a year before. Their eventual exit was rather predictable; they were taken apart by Germany in the final group game which set them against England in the second round, and not even Sven could fuck that one up. They probably weren’t in the top 16 best teams in the tournament, but the record books show they were. A feel-good story, which Germany and England killed. Poland Squad: 1. Artur Boruc (Celtic) 12.

Pawel Brozek (Wisla Krakow) Captain: Jacek Bak Head Coach: Pawel Janas Well, it was nice of Poland to turn up eventually – 2 games, 0 goals, 2 defeats, eliminated already, 1-0 down to Costa Rica, and then they suddenly realise they are a half-decent World Cup team and find 2 goals from a centre-back to win a game, to avoid the humiliation of finishing bottom of a group they were expected to qualify from. It wasn’t quite rescuing a bad situation but it was at least damage limitation – an upgrade from being pelted with rotten vegetables to just having a few bad headlines. Poland had qualified as the best runners-up in UEFA, finishing only a point behind England after the English had decided to somehow lose to Northern Ireland and make it look closer than it actually was. It’s a strange one because the other teams in the group shouldn’t have been terrible – a Wales team that nearly qualified for Euro 2004, a Northern Ireland team that would nearly qualify for Euro 2008, and a solid Austria team that did OK at Euro 2008. The squad is theoretically alright too. But there’s no magic there – aside from Magic Zurawski, anyway. It’s not at all inspiring. The only Lewandowski there is a defender. The only good performance was a defensive one: the stand against Germany, eventually with 10 men, that was cracked in stoppage time by Oliver Neuville. I’d have hated to have been Polish watching this team, with memories of 1974 and 1982, of Deyna, Lato and Boniek. Why didn’t they beat Ecuador? Because Ecuador presumably interesting-ed them to death. Good on them. Shame Costa Rica didn’t hang on too. Costa Rica Squad: 1. Alvaro Mesen (Herediano) 18. Jose Porras (Saprissa) 23.

Alvaro Saborio (Saprissa) 21. Victor Nunez (Cartagines) Captain: Luis Marin Head Coach: Alexandre Guimaraes The first game was a false dawn: in scoring two against Germany, they had given them and the rest of us false hope that this Costa Rica team, spearheaded by a Premier League hero of the past back for one final flourish, could win one or two thrillers and somehow progress by sheer will power. Unfortunately they just weren’t very good. It probably says more about Germany (and their hilariously bad defending that day) that they were able to score 2 in that first match. Granted, a couple of these guys were a part of the true giant-killers of 2006, and Wanchope and Solis had been good enough to work their way into the Premier League in the 1990s, but this wasn’t a particularly talented team. The three players who played outside Costa Rica in 2006 played in Italian Serie B, Guatemala, and MLS. Only Saborio made a name for himself after this. Maybe it’s just me being judgemental towards Central American teams that aren’t Mexico, which I know little about and never really do much at World Cups, but this was a pretty shit team by World Cup standards. They had at least won a game in 2002, when they beat China, then held Turkey to a draw, and even put 2 past Brazil (albeit conceding 5). But four years on, they had regressed somewhat – their best players were the wrong side of 30 and it probably made the difference. It was a real shame after that first game. Group B 1. England – 7 (+3) 2. Sweden – 5 (+1) 3. Paraguay – 3 (0) 4. Trinidad and Tobago – 1 (-4) England Squad: 1. Paul Robinson (Tottenham Hotspur) 13. David James (Manchester City) 22.

Stewart Downing (Middlesbrough) 9. Wayne Rooney (Manchester United) 10. Michael Owen (Newcastle United) 21. Peter Crouch (Liverpool) 23. Theo Walcott (Arsenal) Captain: David Beckham Head Coach: Sven-Goran Eriksson Ah England. Specialists in failure, as Jose might say. This was supposed to be the Big One. “Our Moment”. In the last World Cup, England had scraped out of the groups primarily because of a smash-and-grab win over a vastly superior Argentina side, before getting dumped out by Brazil. That being said, this was an England team which had lost two key players (Gary Neville and Steven Gerrard) to injury, so we’ll let them off; it was an overachievement to get as far as they did. By Euro 2004, things were looking a bit brighter: they should have beaten France, they did beat Switzerland and Croatia, and were unfortunate to lose to Portugal on penalties. However, in hindsight, it’s at this point that things start to unravel. This was already an unbalanced team, stacked in some positions, but with a reluctance to compromise: yes, ladies and gentlemen, I am of course referring to Lampard and Gerrard. It’s impossible to avoid this when talking about mid-2000s England. At this point, we’re talking Beckham and Scholes too, and then Joe Cole as well after Scholes decided he wanted no further part of this rabble, allowing him to retreat with his reputation in tact. It was utterly daft to play them all together. But of course it made sense too: they were high profile players with large personal/club followings and large sponsorship deals. There would have been massive uproar if either Gerrard or Lampard had been dropped for Owen Hargreaves, who should have been key, but he was laughed off until the end of the tournament, when everyone collectively realised he was actually good. Of course, after that his knee, sensing it was a part of the England setup, realised that it needed to give in, and England lost perhaps its most vital midfield cog of that generation of players. The line-up for 2006 that always springs to mind is Robinson; Neville, Terry, Ferdinand, Ashley Cole; Beckham, Gerrard, Lampard, Joe Cole; Rooney, Owen. But actually that XI never played in the tournament. Rooney of course started the tournament on the sidelines injured, so Crouch got the nod for the first two games; Wayne came on after an hour for Owen against Trinidad and Tobago. Then Neville got injured and missed the next three games, with Carragher starting the next two and Hargreaves against Ecuador. Hargreaves also started the Sweden game in place of Gerrard, which was the only game where Owen and Rooney started together; as we all know, Owen then busted his knee after four minutes, being replaced by Crouch. After this, England played 4-5-1 in the remaining games with Rooney as the lone striker, Carrick as the holding midfielder against Ecuador, and Hargreaves in that role against Portugal. Herein lies the problem: even with this supposedly more progressive formation, while they kept two clean sheets, England scored only one goal, from a Beckham free kick; in fact, Beckham also supplied the only goal against Paraguay, and the crucial first goal against Trinidad and Tobago too, while the rest came from moments of magic from Gerrard and Joe Cole. For all the attacking talent, Sven had somehow managed to neuter all the creativity. While playing Rooney and Owen together didn’t work (which often gets overlooked), Rooney was young and unfit, so it was stupid to play him up front alone. Even if England had won the shootout, he’d have been suspended for the semi-final, meaning it would have been Crouch up front alone, given that Sven had seemingly decided he wasn’t going to risk Walcott. It was never going to work out. This one is all on the manager. Hindsight is 20/20. What England should have done is play 4-2-3-1, with Gerrard in behind Rooney, and Hargreaves and AN Other (Carrick maybe, or even Jenas; Scholes in an ideal world) sitting deep. This would have accommodated Gerrard and Beckham (who was always under-utilised by Eriksson) far better and given the side a stronger core. But that would have meant dropping Owen (fans’ favourite) and Lampard (in form for Chelsea, even if he never showed it for his country), which demonstrates that you couldn’t have pleased everyone. And obviously Defoe should have been taken ahead of Walcott. Obviously. Also a reminder at this point that Aaron Lennon was frequently used off the bench and impressed with his pacy running and those other things he does/did. Stewart Downing also appeared in the first two games, then disappeared, which seems like an apt summary of his career. Jenas, Bridge and Walcott were the only outfield players who didn’t play. Paraguay Squad: 1. Justo Villar (Newell’s Old Boys) 12. Derlis Gomez (Sportivo Luqueno) 22. Aldo Bobadilla (Libertad) 2. Jorge Nunez (Estudiantes LP) 3. Delio Toledo (Real Zaragoza) 4. Carlos Gamarra (Palmeiras) 5. Julio Cesar Caceres (River Plate) 14. Paulo da Silva (Toluca) 15. Julio Cesar Manzur (Santos) 21. Denis Caniza (Cruz Azul) 6. Carlos Bonet (Libertad) 8. Edgar Barreto (NEC) 10. Roberto Acuna (Deportivo La Coruna) 11. Diego Gavilan (Newell’s Old Boys) 13. Carlos Paredes (Reggina) 16. Cristian Riveros (Libertad) 17. Jose Montiel (Olimpia) 19. Julio dos Santos (Bayern Munich) 7. Salvador Cabanas (Jaguares) 9. Roque Santa Cruz (Bayern Munich) 18. Nelson Haedo Valdez (Werder Bremen) 20. Dante Lopez (Genoa) 23. Nelson Cuevas (Pachuca) Captain: Carlos Gamarra Head Coach: Anibal Ruiz After second-round berths in the previous two World Cups, Paraguay were perhaps a bit unfortunate to get such a tough draw, and certainly unlucky in the manner of their departure. But this was perhaps a balancing out of the luck they had had in the previous two tournaments. It was also representative of a midfield that was devoid of top-level creativity, but it wouldn’t be a Paraguay side if it was solid, unspectacular and pretty dull. Either way, they were still unlucky. They went behind after just three minutes of their opener against England after captain Gamarra accidentally diverted a Beckham free kick into his own net. They then lost first-choice goalkeeper Villar (later responsible for Copa America penalty shootout heroics) five minutes later with an injury that would keep him out of the rest of the tournament, though Bobadilla hardly disgraced himself in the remaining games, conceding only one goal. And then in the next game, they succumbed to an 89th minute Ljungberg winner that knocked them out of the competition, albeit after being totally dominated by the Swedes. They were out having done little wrong at the back, but little right going forward. They did at least get a consolation victory over Trinidad and Tobago, but even then one of their two goals was a Brent Sancho own goal. Nelson Cuevas, also a scorer in 2002, was the only Paraguayan to score at the right end. Paraguay had finished 4th in South American qualification, three points above Uruguay who went into, and lost, a play-off against Australia. It’s not hard to think that a Uruguay team with Recoba, Forlan, Montero, Zalayeta et al might have been a more interesting participant in the main tournament than this Paraguay team, even if not a more effective one. However, we should also bear in mind that it was missing Jose Cardozo, the team’s top scorer in qualifying with seven goals, who was forced out with a late injury. It’s a shame a very good collection of strikers and a solid defence was playing with such an average midfield. Sweden Squad: 1. Andreas Isaksson (Stade Rennais) 12. John Alvbage (Viborg) 23. Rami Shaaban (Fredrikstad) 2. Mikael Nilsson (Panathinaikos) 3. Olof Mellberg (Aston Villa) 4. Teddy Lucic (Hacken) 5. Erik Edman (Stade Rennais) 13. Petter Hansson (Heerenveen) 14. Frerik Stenman (Bayer Leverkusen) 15. Karl Svensson (Goteborg) 6. Tobias Linderoth (Copenhagen) 7. Niclas Alexandersson (Goteborg) 8. Anders Svensson (Elfsborg) 9. Fredrik Ljungberg (Arsenal) 16. Kim Kallstrom (Stade Rennais) 18. Mattias Jonsson (Djurgardens) 19. Daniel Andersson (Malmo) 21. Christian Wilhelmsson (Anderlecht) 10. Zlatan Ibrahimovic (Juventus) 11. Henrik Larsson (Barcelona) 17. Johan Elmander (Brondby) 20. Marcus Allback (Copenhagen) 22. Markus Rosenberg (Ajax) Captain: Olof Mellberg Head Coach: Lars Lagerback Sweden continued their run of good-but-not-quite-good-enough tournaments here, a run which would eventually stretch from 2000 to 2008. As in 2002, they had enough quality progress, but rolled over far too easily when the going got tough in the second round; while losing to the Germans in Germany probably isn’t the most humiliating result, this one would have to go down as a disappointment. The balance of the squad is quite nice: a good goalkeeper in Isaksson (though former Arsenal backup Shaaban played in the first game), a solid defence, a midfield with a mix of defensive and attacking individuals, two absolute stars in Ljungberg and Zlatan, and the vastly experienced Larsson in his final major tournament. And yet after the first round of games, they were perhaps the most embarrassed team in Germany, after failing to break down Trinidad and Tobago and slumping to a 0-0 draw. They struggled against Paraguay too, being rescued by a late goal from Ljungberg. With the under-performing Ibrahimovic dropped for the England game, they actually scored two, with Aston Villa flop Marcus Allback, who had been lively throughout the tournament, and Larsson getting the goals. Then, in their final game, they left themselves with too much to do by going 2-0 down after 12 minutes, and this was compounded by Lucic’s harsh sending off (famed for referee Carlos Simon’s…unprofessional reaction) and Larsson blazing a second-half penalty into the crowd. For the third tournament in a row, this talented Sweden side had made it through the group stage, but no further. On the face of it, a shame. But I’m not sure they really deserved to go any further. It’s not overachievement or underachievement. Trinidad and Tobago Squad: 1. Shaka Hislop (West Ham United) 21. Kelvin Jack (Dundee) 22. Clayton Ince (Coventry City) 2. Ian Cox (Gillingham) 3. Avery John (New England Revolution) 4. Marvin Andrews (Dundee) 5. Brent Sancho (Gillingham) 6. Dennis Lawrence (Wrexham) 8. Cyd Gray (San Juan Jabloteh) 17. David Atiba Charles (W Connection) 7. Chris Birchall (Port Vale) 9. Aurtis Whitley (San Juan Jabloteh) 10. Russell Latapy (Falkirk) 11. Carlos Edwards (Luton Town) 16. Evans Wise (Waldhof Mannheim) 18. Densill Theobald (Falkirk) 23. Anthony Wolfe (San Juan Jabloteh) 12. Collin Samuel (Dundee United) 13. Cornell Glen (Los Angeles Galaxy) 14. Stern John (Coventry City) 15. Kenwyne Jones (Southampton) 19. Dwight Yorke (Sydney FC) 20. Jason Scotland (St Johnstone) Head Coach: Leo Beenhakker Captain: Dwight Yorke The Soca Warriors were the Caribbean’s encore after 1998’s Reggae Boyz. They were everyone’s second favourite team in this competition. They even came with their own fun song. It may be slightly disrespectful to compare them first and foremost to that great Jamaica team, but the parallels are there, particularly the many players from the English lower leagues. However, we should discuss the squad on its own merits. They, like Jamaica eight years before, were more than “the fun team”. In goal, the squad had three goalkeepers who were well-known to fans of the English lower leagues. Kelvin Jack was initially meant to start the first game against Sweden, but was injured in the warm-up. Shaka Hislop, who had been called up by England for their friendly against Chile in 1998, was drafted in and produced a wonderful performance. He kept the starting spot for the game against the land of his birth, where he was again beaten from distance by Steven Gerrard, as he had been in the legendary FA Cup Final between Liverpool and West Ham a few weeks before. Jack started the third game against Paraguay. Hislop, who had retired from international duty in 2004 but returned on hint of success, was one of several notable faces to come out of retirement for this time, which was largely welcomed. The other major additions were former Rangers midfielder Russell Latapy and his good friend Dwight Yorke, who had both quit in 2001 but returned in qualifying at the behest of Jack Warner (yes, that one). Yorke, who was quickly made captain of the team, was 34 and fresh from winning the very first A-League; to prepare for the World Cup, he had been training with his former club Manchester United. However, as is evident from the squad list, Trinidad and Tobago weren’t short of striking talent, and in the event, Yorke was moved back into central midfield, where he partnered Aurtis Whitley. He was so effective that Sunderland manager (and Yorke’s former team mate) Roy Keane hired him to perform this role for another three seasons. Both Yorke and Latapy, whose careers with the national side had begun in the late 1980s, played on for their country for another three years. There were plenty of other English and Scottish Football League regulars. Dennis Lawrence, scorer of the winning goal in the play-off against Bahrain that qualified the Soca Warriors for the World Cup, had made over 200 appearances for Wrexham and soon moved to South Wales to join Swansea. Carlos Edwards had also made his name at Wrexham from 2000, and today plays for Millwall, his sixth English/Welsh club. Stern John had stints at nine English clubs in the Premier League or Championship. Ian Cox was born in Croydon and began his career at local club Crystal Palace, before long stints at Bournemouth, Burnley and Gillingham. Marvin Andrews, like Latapy, was a mainstay of the Scottish leagues including a stint at Rangers. Jason Scotland followed Lawrence to Swansea for a successful stint, later moving to Ipswich and Barnsley; today he plays for Stenhousemuir back in the country of his name. Kenwyne Jones would go on to be a well-known figure in the Premier League and Championship in the years to come, and is now Trinidad and Tobago captain, the only survivor of this team. And then there’s Chris Birchall. In one of the most fascinating little stories of the 2006 World Cup, the Port Vale midfielder, born in Stafford, was eligible due to his mother’s birth in Port of Spain, and was asked to play for the team by Lawrence in the middle of a match. Birchall became the first white player to play for Trinidad and Tobago for sixty years; indeed, a BBC behind-the-scenes video suggested his nickname in the team was “Whitey”. Impressive performances led to a move to Coventry City, and eventually to MLS with Los Angeles Galaxy, playing with one of his more prestigious opponents from the World Cup. After a brief stint at Columbus Crew, he returned to Port Vale in 2013, the same year he retired from international duty. The Soca Warriors acquitted themselves very well in their three matches, with a draw and two narrow defeats, albeit with no goals scored. As you might expect, they were defensively solid but limited. But they remain one of the more remarkable teams of recent major tournaments. With the retirements of their best players and their Central American rivals having improved in the years since, it’s unlikely we will see them in a World Cup again any time soon.

SPIEGEL: The 2004 European Championship was full of attractive football. Do you think this World Cup will follow the same trend? Rosický: We'll see a combination of speed and precision, strategy and creativity, like we haven't seen before. The World Cup will far surpass the European Championship because there won't be a victor like Greece this time round. If you play defensively like that, you've got no chance of winning the trophy. SPIEGEL: Many people think the Czech Republic have an outside chance of winning the World Cup. But the same has been true at many previous tournaments. Why does the team always disappoint at major championships? Rosický: I don't think we've let ourselves down. We just play very aggressive, imaginative football. We don't sit back. So if we lose and get knocked out, it's always the same story -- "The Czechs are so stupid, they always just attack and then fall on their own sword." SPIEGEL: But that's true. Rosický: We're not prima donnas, though. We respect every team. In the European Championship semi-final against Greece, we had enough chances to win the game. The disappointment was huge. But at the World Cup we're not going to play for points. That just isn't our style. SPIEGEL: Key players Like Pavel Nedved and Karel Poborský have already turned 33 years old. The World Cup is the last chance for the "great generation." Rosický: Sure, and that means they'll fight and run till they drop dead. We just have to be careful that our will to win doesn't get out of control. Then we run the risk of cramping up. SPIEGEL: If Pavel Nedved is the lungs of the Czech team, you're the brains. Trainer Karel Brückner says you're the most important player. Do you see yourself that way? Rosický: To my mind Nedved is the star. He carries more authority than me -- I'm fairly reticent. I always say, "Leave the talking to others, just let me play." Rosický: The first two or three years in Dortmund were fine: league champions, a UEFA Cup final, Champions League qualification. But then came the club's financial problems. After that it was hardly fun at all. By the end there weren't any smart strategic players left on the pitch -- players like the Brazilian Amoroso had gone. You can't play in the top league with only young players. SPIEGEL: All the same, one of these young players, David Odonkor, is now in the Germany squad. Rosický: His selection surprised me a little SPIEGEL: And what's their take on the situation? Rosický: I'd prefer to keep that private. SPIEGEL: Arsenal just paid €10 million for you. Are you confident about playing in London, given the competition there? Rosický: Arsenal has always been my favorite club. When Aliaksandr Hleb moved there last year I was really envious. I know I'll have to prove myself. But that's the reason I wanted to be transferred there. I want to improve -- I want the competition. I like their style of play: fast and direct. Along with Barcelona, Arsenal play the most beautiful football in Europe.

Club career Born in Fulda, Hesse, Kehl joined Hannover 96's youth system in 1996 at the age of 15, going on to appear in two 2. Bundesliga seasons with the first team. In the 2000 summer he signed for SC Freiburg in the Bundesliga, making his debut in the competition on 12 August by playing the full 90 minutes in a 4–0 home win against VfB Stuttgart, and scoring his first goal on 12 December of that year to help to a 2–1 away success over VfL Wolfsburg. Under legendary manager Volker Finke, Kehl featured mostly as a sweeper, helping the Black Forest club qualify to the UEFA Cup in his first season but suffering relegation in his second. He was no longer part of the squad, however, as he had left in the 2002 January transfer window to Borussia Dortmund, who went on to win the championship with 15 games and one goal from the player; previously, in the 2001 summer, he controversially agreed basic terms with FC Bayern Munich, and even accepted an advanced payment of 1.5 million Deutsche Mark, which was returned in November as Bayern threatened to take legal action. During his tenure with Dortmund, Kehl was more often than not a starter. He contributed with 12 matches in the 2002–03 edition of the UEFA Champions League to help his team reach the second group phase, and amassed 61 league appearances from 2004 to 2006 in back-to-back seventh-place finishes. In the first day of the 2006–07 campaign, Kehl injured his left knee in a challenge with Bayern's Hasan Salihamidžić, going on to be sidelined for several months and only recovering fully in the start of 2008–09, when he was made captain by new coach Jürgen Klopp. He eventually relapsed on his condition, also losing his importance in the starting XI after the emergence of Sven Bender and Nuri Şahin. On 27 July 2013, Kehl played the second half of the DFL-Supercup contest against Bayern Munich, replacing Bender in an eventual 4–2 win. In September, he was put out of action for another lengthy period, after injuring his ankle in training. Kehl began hinting at retirement in March 2014, shortly after having agreed to a one-year extension to his contract. The 35-year-old confirmed it at the end of the 2014–15 season, after having taken part in 21 games to help Borussia come from behind in the table and finally qualify to the Europa League. International career Kehl gained the first of his 31 caps for the German national team on 29 May 2001, in a 2–0 friendly win against Slovakia in Bremen where he came on for Marko Rehmer after 45 minutes. He scored his first goal on 15 August of that year, helping to a 5–2 triumph in Hungary in another exhibition game. Selected for both the 2002 and the 2006 World Cups, Kehl played once (against Paraguay) in the former tournament as the Mannschaft finished in second position, and started in two of his four appearances to help to the third place in the latter.
