From the coming season, the Friday evening game of the Bundesliga will be back at Sky. The broadcaster has come up with something special.

Sky Sport extends with a well-known commentator: Florian Schmidt-Sommerfeld remains the broadcaster and will continue to be heard at football broadcasts in the future. The 35-year-old has been one of the station’s fixed voices since 2017.

And that’s not all: Sky announced that the Friday evening game of the Bundesliga from the coming season was commented on by two crowds. Namely from Schmidt-Sommerfeld and Frank Buschmann.

Why? Sky-Sport editor-in-chief Alexander Rösner explained this: “Between ‘Schmiso’ and ‘Buschi’ simply the chemistry, they tease and they love each other, are both thoroughbrs reporters and at the same time also entertainer. Perfect prerequisites to implement this new model perfectly. I’m already full of anticipation.”

Schmidt-Sommerfeldt himself said: “I am totally happy that the journey together with Sky Sport continues. The new floodlight Friday will be Mega! Comment with Buschi together with Buschi-is a new way, sounds like an adventure and I am incredibly crazy.”
