For the third time in a week department attack!
Ex-Bayern President Uli Hoeneß (71) was on Thursday evening at a talk at the Munich broker and multiple agent fair.
When it came to the public television stations’ critical coverage of the World Cup in Qatar, the honorary president rumbled again.
Hoeness: “If I were Fifa, I would no longer give ARD and ZDF World Cup rights!”
bang!
Hoeneß attacks ARD and ZDF – Bavaria’s honorary president rumbles in rage
The ex-boss continues: “Up until ten minutes before the first game, human rights were discussed. Of course they are important – I am a big friend of human rights. But at some point the moment has to come when it’s about football.”
Once in a rage, Hoeneß continued to rumble: “There is no question that there are many problems to be solved in Qatar. But as bad as the German media made the World Cup in the run-up… That robbed the public of a wonderful experience! It gets on my nerves how Germans are behaving all over the world at the moment. We have enough problems to solve ourselves.”
Before Bayern’s 2-0 round of 16 second leg against PSG, Hoeneß teased their transfer billion on Monday and Tuesday.
At an event in Munich, the ex-president said about the way the French work: “From Paris, you fly to Doha in a private jet and show the Emir a few videos. Then he asks: ‘You want him? How much does it cost – 100, 150 million? And then after the crème brûlée he says, ‘Ok, let’s do that.’”
He therefore enjoyed Bayern’s quarter-finals entry in the Champions League against the Qatar club with Lionel Messi (35) and Kylian Mbappé (24) all the more!
Hoeneß: “On Wednesday there were hundreds of millions on the pitch, but when a neutral spectator went home afterwards, he said: FC Bayern was better from A to Z. That makes me happy.”
