Wirtz Florian
„Meine Bayern“ heißt die Kolumne von SPORT BILD-Reporter-Legende Raimund Hinko, die sich mit dem deutschen Rekordmeister befasst. Hinko begleitet den FC Bayern seit Jahrzehnten.
Liebe Bayern-Fans, liebe Bundesliga-Fans,
zuerst die gute Nachricht: Es ist kein Jammer, dass in München das „Finale dahoam“ vom französischen und vom italienischen Meister bestritten wurde. Und es ist auch kein Jammer, dass Bayern im Viertelfinale gegen Inter Mailand ausgeschieden ist. Bayern war in beiden Spielen die bessere Mannschaft. Und jede Wette: Bayern hätte das Finale gegen Paris niemals 0:5 verloren. Schade, dass sich das nicht beweisen lässt. Die Faktenlage spricht voll für meine These.
Da waren sich auch Uli Hoeneß, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, Jan-Christian Dreesen, Max Eberl und Christoph Freund, die ranghöchsten Bayern nach Präsident Herbert Heiner einig. Wenige Tage, nachdem sie eine schmerzhafte Niederlage hatten einstecken müssen.
[–>Die „Süddeutsche Zeitung“ hatte von einem Geheimtreffen mit Florian Wirtz in München berichtet, das von großem Selbstbewusstsein zeugt, da es am Tage stattfand, als sich die Bayern-Spieler auf dem Marienplatz für die 34. Deutsche Meisterschaft feiern ließen. Trainer Vincent Kompany hatte sich mit Wirtz auf ein Hotelzimmer zurückgezogen, um dem heiß begehrten Spielmacher von Bayer Leverkusen zu erklären, wie er zusammen mit Jamal Musiala das neue Bayern-Spiel mit zwei Zehnern plant. Es war bitter, auch wenn sie es schon ahnten, die vom Erfolg Verwöhnten, dass Wirtz den FC Liverpool vorziehen würde. Der FC Bayern schien nicht mehr erste Wahl. Ein harter Fall.
Doch bei genauerer Analyse, wie toll denn nun die englische Premier League sei, lässt sich nicht übersehen, dass Paris auf dem Weg zum Champions-League-Sieg Arsenal London, Liverpool, Aston Villa und Manchester City aus dem Wege geräumt hatte. Also die Visitenkarte der angeblich stärksten Liga der Welt. Vielleicht ist sie es ja auch manchmal. Die Betonung liegt auf manchmal und vielleicht. Die Bundesliga jedenfalls braucht sich nicht zu verstecken. Manchmal ist Freiburg gegen Heidenheim mehr als Manchester United gegen Wolverhampton. Ligen, die von den Spielern des Geldes wegen bevorzugt werden, neigen zur Bequemlichkeit, zu Stagnation, die Spieler werden träge.
„Panik, Verzweiflung“: Was im TV nur schwer zu sehen war
Die Bayern-Verantwortlichen lachten jedenfalls auffallend oft auf der Tribüne der Allianz-Arena – also ihrem Stadion, das sie mit Franz Beckenbauers tüchtiger Hilfe in das trübe Münchner Viertel Fröttmaning hingestellt hatten als eines der leuchtendsten Stadien der Welt (nicht umsonst findet dort am Mittwoch das Nations-League-Halbfinale Portugal gegen Deutschland statt und am Sonntag des Finale) – sie lachten also vor allem, weil ihnen einer zugerufen hatte: „Wisst Ihr eigentlich, wer die einzige Mannschaft ist, die in dieser Saison in der Champions League die Pariser geschlagen hat? Der FC Bayern.“ Und dann sang er laut drauflos: „Der FC Bayern wird niemals untergeh’n“.
Was da am 26. November 2024 gegen Paris ablief, war mehr als deutlich: 18:11 Schüsse, 7:3 Torschüsse, 58:43 % Ballbesitz, 84:79 Pass-Sicherheit, 576:419 Pässe – alles für Bayern, obwohl St. Germain schon geprägt war vom spanischen Ballbesitz-Weiterentwickler Luis Enrique. Das Tor zum 1:0 köpfte Innenverteidiger Kim. Rechts und links spielten die Parade-Verteidiger Laimer und Davies, auf der Doppel-Sechs Kimmich und Goretzka, vorne Musiala und Kane – ich weiß nicht, ob das mit Wirtz besser gelaufen wäre, obwohl der jede Mannschaft und auch seine Mitspieler besser machen kann.
[–>Die Bayern dürfen also ruhig guter Laune sein. Mit Leverkusens Jonathan Tah (29) kommt nicht nur ein Abwehr-Verbesserer, sondern auch ein in sich ruhender, beständiger Mann, der auch einem Wirtz gutgetan hätte. Auf den Flügeln wird sich im Transfergeschäft – wenn auch nicht allzu viel – etwas tun. Wichtig ist, dass Alphonso Davies und Dayot Upamecano wieder gesund werden, Min-jae Kim und Hiroki Ito natürlich auch – und dass bei Jamal Musiala ein böser Weisheitszahn nicht die Muskulatur in den Beinen anknabbert wie ein Marder die Bremskabel. Manuel Neuer soll sich ja beim Jubeln nicht zurückhalten müssen. Obwohl? Wenn dann immer ein Muskelfaserriss droht? Wie wär’s ganz einfach mit Magnesium? Und bei Musiala ein Zahnarzt, der mutig im Reißen ist?
Ich freue mich jetzt schon in der neuen Saison auf ein Vorrundenspiel in Liverpool. Was für eine heiße Nummer für Musiala und Wirtz, bekannt als Wurziala. Da brauchen sich die Bayern-Bosse also gar nicht mehr groß grämen nach ihrer Niederlage gegen das Wunderkind Wirtz.

MLB playoffs 2025: The Phillies won a must-win game. Did the Dodgers lose one, too?
LOS ANGELES — However this NLDS plays out — whether the Los Angeles Dodgers hold on or the Philadelphia Phillies stage the comeback of these playoffs — many will point to Kyle Schwarber's 455-foot home run that hurtled through the air and over the right-field pavilion of Dodger Stadium as the turning point.Phillies manager Rob Thomson certainly did after the game, telling reporters the blast "sort of woke everybody up and got a lot of energy going in the dugout."It was an enormous home run, yes, one that seemed to fully break the Phillies out of a malaise that had so far cost them two games in the series. However, Schwarber went on to hit a second, less numerically impressive homer, and that one might be just as important because it might as well have gone on the Game 4 […]
Predicting biggest overreactions for NFL Week 6: Browns go to Shedeur Sanders as QB1? Chiefs missing playoffs?
Overreactions after a football game are natural. Why did this team win or lose and can it continue that momentum (or end it)? Will a decision by a player end up sending his team into a downward spiral or spark it to new heights?What about the coaches? Is it necessary to fire a coach in the midst of a bad season or be patient? Same with a quarterback who is trying to retain his starting job week to week? That's the beauty of the NFL, the instant reaction to a result, then having time to think about said reaction. Overreactions are a hot topic in the NFL these days, but can we will them into existence? Perhaps, based on the results of the upcoming slate and how we predict that game this week is going to go.These overreaction predictions are a […]
4 Takeaways From the Phillies’ NLDS Game 3 Win Over the Dodgers
<!--> [--> Rowan Kavner MLB Writer <!-->]--> <!--> --> LOS ANGELES — By the ninth inning, much of Dodger Stadium had already cleared out.

Phillies sluggers wake from their slumber The ball sailed through the Los Angeles night sky and clanked off the top of the roof in the Dodgers’ right-field pavilion in the fourth inning. And with that, the first Schwarbomb of the postseason signaled the arrival of the Phillies’ sluggers.

‘Progress is not enough’ – Hamilton issues Ferrari rallying cry after setback
Lewis Hamilton has issued a rallying cry to his Ferrari team as he insisted he was "proud" of their efforts despite another underwhelming result at the Singapore Grand Prix.Hamilton returned to action at the Marina Bay Street Circuit just days after announcing that his beloved dog Roscoe had died, and said he was "overwhelmed" by the support he had received. The seven-time world champion outqualified team-mate Charles Leclerc for the first time since July's British Grand Prix but Ferrari were a clear step below Mercedes, Red Bull and McLaren as Hamilton limped home with a brake issue to cross the line in seventh, which became eighth after he received a five-second time penalty for exceeding track limits multiple times."After a tough week, it feels good to be home. I had some time to reflect on my journey from Singapore and […]
