Wow!! 🤩🤩🤩
Amazing, great documentary!
The rest of the world even learns something here that the german viewers don't: Around 18:45, he lists some famous players from the 80s and says FRANK ZANDER who is actually a famous entertainer/singer, the subtitle corrects it to KLAUS but the germans will never know and probably have some interesting google searches going on😂
Very sad that Cologne only play 3rd division and Leverkusen 2nd division these days
Schrempf traah
When I went to Germany, I wasn't a fan until I played ball…. well maybe Dresden. Very physical ball playing there outside of vacationing. This is a great series.
