The German Football Association has drawn all the registers to motivate the players as best as possible for the fight for the European Championship title. In addition to a winning bonus of 120,000 euros per player, a very special “slip of paper” is one of the measures.
It happens that the management of the hotel “Five” On the Döltschiweg in Zurich after visiting particularly party -loving guests, one or the other craft business has to call you in order to make the expensive facility look expensive again. A little can break in the five-star hostel-after all, the accommodation, including disco on the attic, is also considered a party hotel.
Perhaps after the departure of the DFB team from the “Five”the base camp of the European record champions, who come to the craftsmen. Possibly wallpaper. Because the German delegation glued many notes on the walls on the two floors rented for the tournament. There are statements from the greatest footballers in the history of the association.
The kickers from national coach Christian Wück will receive a “brainwashing” in a way in a way in every course or in their rooms – of course in a positive sense. After all, the quotes of the ex-stars should serve to motivate the current stars. Worked in the case of Giovanna Hoffmann. Very good.
DFB striker Hoffmann takes Fitschen motto to heart
“A quote from Doris Fitschen hangs near my room. And there is ‘Never Train for Second Place’ (‘Never train for second place’, editor’s note) on it”the attacker told the press conference on Wednesday. She took the motto of the On March 15 of this year at the age of only 56, former world-class defender, who died Immediately to heart.
“I already noticed that at the end of the day it is about winning games, no matter how. That if necessary you can go through the wall with your head if necessary.”
“I already noticed that at the end of the day it is about winning games, no matter how. That if necessary you can go through the wall with your head if necessary. Now we have reached the ko phase, and it may be even more important than before”said the striker of RB Leipzig.
Germany with heart and hardness against France
Going through the wall with his head – that was not the way of being carefully considered and elegantly playing. But on Saturday (9 p.m., live in the ticker and in the audio stream at Sportschau.de) In the quarter -finals, a shade of brachiity may be asked to take the pleasure of magic to the enthusiasm for playing.
“It is also about getting into the head of the French and then pulling the game to our side with the German virtues”said Hoffmann. Her attack colleague Klara Bühl hit this notch: “It is important to be there from the start and to be poisonous to step on your feet. Then we can also annoy them a bit.”
Bühl: “Are here to win the next three games”
With this “a little annoyance”, Bühl naturally practiced mercilessly in understatement. Because of course the 24-year-old did not travel to Switzerland to take party vacation-even if there is a lot of opportunity to do so in her current accommodation. The striker wants the title. “We are here to win the next three games”said the left wing confidently.
Sounds almost afterwards as if Bühl tigers for hours along the hotel hall and the motivational sayings hung there devours over and over again. But that’s not the case. “I read through all times. But it is not a quote that is mega in the head”said the 24-year-old.
