Weißenfels
Im Halbfinale des Basketball-Pokals wurde Martin Breunig (33) vom Syntainics MBC zum Helden. Eine Sekunde vor Schluss sicherte der Center einen Abpraller und beförderte den Ball zum 95:93 in den Korb. Die Weißenfelser erreichten zum ersten Mal in ihrer Geschichte das Finale – und holten sich gegen Bamberg den Pott.
Breunig verpasste den Saison-Endspurt wegen einer Fingerverletzung. Dennoch wollte der MBC unbedingt mit 2,03-Meter-Hünen verlängern. Doch den Leverkusener mit thailändischen Wurzeln zieht es in die Ferne.
[–>Für seinen (voraussichtlich) letzten großen Vertrag wechselt Breuning jetzt offenbar nach Asien!
Nach Informationen von Transfer-Insider Rupert Fabig („Hamburger Abendblatt“) geht es für ihn zu den New Taipeh Kings nach Taiwan. Der Top-Klub wurde gerade in der relativ neuen Sieber-Liga TPBL Meister und qualifizierte sich dadurch für die „East Asia Super League“ – eine Art asiatische Champions League.
BBL: Syntaincs MBC: Pokal-Held Martin Breunig wechselt zu John Patrick nach Taiwan
Die sportliche Leitung bei den „Königen“ ist ein alter Bekannter: Kult-Trainer John Patrick (57).
Der dreimalige „Trainer des Jahres“ der BBL (2009, 2010, 2021) wurde Ende März bei den MHP Riesen Ludwigsburg gefeuert. Danach entschied er sich, trotz Angeboten aus seiner zweiten Heimat Japan, für das Abenteuer Taiwan. Nach Saisonende verabschiedete sich dann auch noch sein Ludwigsburger Co-Trainer Lars Masell (44) überraschend aus der Barockstadt, um dem Vernehmen nach Patrick in die 4-Mio.-Einwohner-Stadt Neu-Taipeh zu folgen.
Technik trifft Körbe: Schicken DIESE Roboter Curry und Co. auf die Bank?
Breunig folgt dabei aber nicht nur dem Ruf des Geldes. Rund um seine Einsätze für die thailändische hatte er stets betont, wie sehr ihm die dortige Mentalität zusagt, und dass er am Ende seiner Karriere gerne noch mal in Asien spielen wolle. Nun bot sich die Chance.
Patrick und Breunig kennen sich zudem aus der Saison 2016/17. Breunig hatte damals nach seiner College-Zeit an der University of Montana in Ludwigsburg seinen ersten Profi-Vertrag unterschrieben. Doch weil er sich damals auf seiner Position gegen einen gewissen Johannes Thiemann (heute 31) nicht durchsetzen konnte, wechselte der talentierte „Big“ nach Bonn.
Kurios: Weltmeister Thiemann ist mittlerweile ebenfalls in Asien gelandet. Er verlängerte diesen Sommer seinen Vertrag in Japan bei den Gunma Crane Thunders.

Arsenal are in ongoing discussions about how they can improve the Emirates Stadium - including a potential expansion. The Telegraph reported on Tuesday that the club are making "detailed plans" that could include increasing the capacity to 70,000 with a potential stay at Wembley while the work is carried out. Talk of a decision on any redevelopment is premature, Sky Sports News understands, and Islington Council insists no formal discussions are taking place.But, for over a year, the club have been exploring how to increase their attendances beyond the current maximum of 60,700 as part of a general desire to constantly improve facilities, including the training ground.An Islington Council spokesperson told Sky Sports News: "At this time, we are not engaged in any formal discussions with Arsenal regarding potential redevelopment plans for the Emirates Stadium.

Farrell ‘motivated’ for more Wigan success with potential Grand Final ‘three-peat’
Wigan Warriors captain Liam Farrell knows exactly what to expect in the Super League Grand Final on Saturday but that does not mean any motivation to win more silverware has gone away.Heading into his 10th Grand Final, Farrell knows exactly what it means to win on the biggest stage having picked up a winners' ring on six of the nine occasions he has walked out at Old Trafford so far. All of that success has come with his boyhood club, the Warriors, with whom he has spent the entirety of his 15-year career.Now, while many would be forgiven for being content with such a stacked trophy cabinet, Farrell remains galvanised to achieve more.

Proč už Česko není tak dobré jako dřív? ptají se Keriče. Po červnovém debaklu ještě častěji
Vidí se už Chorvati na mistrovství světa?Tak nemusíme si nic nalhávat. Když uhrajeme v Praze pozitivní výsledek, šampionát budeme mít prakticky jistý. Nevím, co by se ve zbytku kvalifikace ještě muselo stát, abychom nepostoupili. Samozřejmě se hráči budou snažit, aby to bylo stoprocentní co nejdříve.Prakticky vám stačí v Praze i remíza.Asi ano, ale jsem si jistý, že trenér ani hráči nepůjdou do zápasu s tím, aby hráli na remízu. Jsou si vědomí svých kvalit a půjdou vyhrát.Po prvním zápase v Osijeku a výhře 5:1 chorvatská média třeba psala, že trenér Zlatko Dalič se už může starat jen o to, zda mu bude platit v době mistrovství světa pas… Nehrozí v takové atmosféře a pod dojmem vysoké výhry určité podcenění, ke kterému mají Chorvati sklony?Nemyslím si, byť ty dva následující zápasy na Faerských ostrovech a doma s Černou Horou byly nic moc, vyhrálo se, což je nejdůležitější. Přijde mi, že hrajeme přesně na tolik, kolik […]
