Curious exchange of words in the ZDF flick interview

Germany plays 1: 1 in the Nations League against England, after the game national coach Hansi Flick answers the questions of the TV station – when it comes to a scene, a curious exchange of words develops.

Next game in the Nations League, next draw – despite a strong performance, the DFB team couldn’t win against England either. In the 1-1 draw in Munich against archrival England, the guests equalized in the 88th minute due to a controversial scene: star striker Harry Kane fell in a duel with Nico Schlotterbeck, referee Carlos del Cerro Grande decided after help from the video assistant: penalty. Kane converted safely.

A scene that also sparked discussions after the game – and a bizarre scene with national coach Hansi Flick. The 57-year-old answered questions from ZDF presenter Katrin Müller-Hohenstein and expert Christoph Kramer. Right from the start it was about the penalty – and confusion ensued straight away. The trio rewatched the scene on a monitor. The following dialogue developed:

Chandler: “I think you can also discuss offside, but then Manuel Graefe would have intervened.”

flick: “Manuel Gräfe was sitting down here, wasn’t he?”

Chandler: “Yes. He waved it through.”

flick: “Great. Great. Huge compliments to the cellar.”
