Cyprus trip with vacation feeling and a Bayern fright
The Munich football stars also find that chic. From Munich’s autumn it goes into the sun again. The primary goal of the trip to the Mediterranean is: “All nine” against Pafos.
Sun, beach, sea: A certain holiday feeling cannot be avoided at FC Bayern to Cyprus. Before the Champions League trip to the south, soccer player Leon Goretzka also looked at the weather forecast: “I only saw the sun there. And always 28, 29 degrees,” the 30-year-old rejoiced, but to make it clear: “Of course we don’t go because of the weather!”
Clear. Of course, it’s not about refreshing the summer tan that faded in Munich in Munich. Rather, on Tuesday (9:00 p.m./Prime Video) against the king class newcomer and maximum outsiders FC Pafos after the 3-1 against club world champion FC Chelsea to score the next three points in the league.
Eberl: Pull through the week
“All nine” is the motto of the Bundesliga league after eight competitive victories this season. “We will now go through the week,” announced sports director Max Eberl vigorously. He looked at his gaze until the next international break: “We are going to Cyprus – and then we still have a very important, complicated away game in Frankfurt.”
How complicated it becomes for the Munich starring ensemble around assembly ligament scorer Harry Kane in the 10,700 spectator Alphamega Stadion of Limassol, where FC Pafos exposes its European Cup home games, should be a mere job question. The favorite role of the German master is too clear.
Kimmich warns: be “vigilant”
Joshua Kimmich recalled the past season when Bayern lost three out of four away games in the preliminary round, including for outsiders such as Aston Villa (0: 1) and Feyenoord Rotterdam (0: 3). “Accordingly, we will be vigilant and focused,” said the midfield chief.
In the morning, the Bayern professionals still completed the final training in Munich in cool twelve degrees and under gray sky. Only then was the charter flight on the vacation island in the eastern Mediterranean, also popular with German vacationers. “It will be pretty warm. But we play late in the evening,” that helps, “Kane remarked to the climatic difference and with a view to the kick -off time at 10 p.m. local time.
What kind of opponent does Bayern expect? Cyprus’s champion struggled surprisingly through the qualification and also prevailed against well -known teams such as Red Stern Belgrade. The team of coach Juan Carlos Carcedo won a 0-0 outnumber against Olympiacos Piraeus on the 1st matchday. The Spaniard flirts with the underdog roll.
Reunion of new ones with David Luiz
“We are the Cinderella of the competition,” said Carcedo the “Bild am Sonntag”. In fact, the market value of the entire PAFOS squad is estimated to be just 25 million euros. This is almost a quarter of Kane who cost Bayern 100 million euros two years ago alone. The team is not Cypric, but rather European and Brazilian.
The best-known player is a 38-year-old: David Luiz, the Bayern fright. The central defender was part of the Chelsea FC in 2012, which Bayern defeated in the “Finale Dahoam”. He met Manuel Neuer in penalty shooting.
In 2014, David Luiz then led Brazil’s Seleção in the historic 1: 7 against the German national team in the World Cup semi-final. There was also new (39) in the goal. Now the two veterans in the football province Cyprus are reunited eleven years later. And Neuer said: “It is important that we continue the good start against Pafos after the home win against Chelsea.”
