MATCH TOUR
Bayern - Werder Bremen. The champion seems tired of serving as a target for stinging arrows. Today, the “record holder” is again menacing. And not only in the Bundesliga, but also in Europe. The victory over Madrid “Real” shamed many skeptics and allowed the “Bavaria” to get into the quarterfinals of the Champions League. The team of Ottmar Hitzfeld climbs out in order to play in the main European competition next season. Munich's successes in the Bundesliga gave optimists an excuse to resume conversations even about the championship. Hope is still warming - especially if one recalls Bavarian trademark luck and permanent chaos at the top of the table. In any case, a match with a rival “Bremen” is super important for both rivals. After all, the "Bremen Town Musicians", recovered from the February crisis, also recognize only the maximum tasks.
UNEXPECTED INTrigue
Hamburg - Bayer. In the first round, “aspirin” became the only team to lose to the unpretentious “Hamburg” - moreover, in Leverkusen. Today, the northerners risen from the ashes do not know mercy, crushing one rival after another. On Sunday, their triumphant series may increase to five matches. Although, it is possible, it will be interrupted. After all, “Bayer” is also on the rise. Winnings at Schalke and Stuttgart brought Michael Skibbe wards a reputation as subversive authorities. So the hosts will not be easy - especially if their leader van der Warth does not go on the field. Doctors are doing everything to return the Dutchman who has received muscle injury to the system.
DO NOT LOSE FROM THE VIEW
Rene Adler spent only two games in the Bundesliga, but quickly turned into a prominent figure. The 22-year-old goalkeeper, Bayer, whose name translates as “eagle”, was at its best in matches with Schalke and Stuttgart. Debuting at the heart of Adler helped disqualification of the “iron” Butt. Today, Hans-Jörg has the right to play, but coaches prefer a courageous reservist. Is the story of Frank Rost repeating, giving way to Schalke to young Manuel Neuer? However, German fans can be happy anyway. Young goalkeepers declare themselves loudly, which means that the change of Kahn, Lehmann and other veterans is growing what is needed.
IMPORTANT WORDS
“For us, every game is still decisive. Despite four consecutive wins, the distance to the relegation zone is only a point. With 27 points that we have in our assets, it’s impossible to stay in the Bundesliga,” Hamburg head coach Hub Stevens .
BEAUTIFUL NUMBERS
The goal of the Bavarian Roy Macaya at the 11th second of the match against Real Madrid was the fastest in the history of the Champions League. Before the Dutchman, the achievement belonged to Arsenal player Gilberto Silve. In September 2002, it took him 20 seconds to print the PSV gate.
