Test match: Germany - Luckenwalde [R]

[Bayerntone]

I think the match was not pre-meditated, not in Klinsi's plan at all.

It was arranged in collaboration with some memorial events and so it was played in a irregualr context, for only 60 minutes. That's an evident case in which the power of a national coach was over-ruled.

The game was taken up more in the anticipation of a warm-up, leg stretching hour. But misfortunate things do happen even in regular training.

I just cannot believe this. How stupid can you be? Scheduling a friendly match with an amateur team 3 weeks before the most important soccer event??????
Schedule it for afterwards or earlier, whatever......but now!!!!????

There is nothing you can learn from this as a team or coach and it only unecessarily endangers the players ....NOT COOL :mad:

Correct, but you can´t blame Klinsmann for it.
He wanted to make the match after the WC.

The German WC organisation committee (OK)
should be blamed, they agreed to let the match take place
on this stupid date.

Shame on you, Mr. Zwanziger, Mr. Schmidt, Mr. Niersbach
and especially Mr. Beckenbauer. ;)

[He´s the president of the OK, so he´s responsible. :D ]
