In Dortmund, Leipzig and Gladbach one should have breathed a sigh of relief on Sunday: Bayern Munich can be defeated! Around 60 hours after beating Sevilla in the Super Cup final, Hansi Flick’s team lost their first competitive match against Hoffenheim in 2020. The last time the quadruple winner (Bayern won the Champions League, Super Cup, championship and cup) was on December 7 Lost in 2019.
Everyone succeeds in this feat. Sebastian Hoeness, 38, son of Bayern forward legend Dieter Hoeness and nephew of Honorary Bayern President Uli Hoeness, has been a TSG Hoffenheim manager since this season. Last season, Hoeness sensationally led Bayern II to the third division championship.
Matchplan worked completely
“It turned out the way we imagined. We defended well and we are still dangerous, ”said Hoeness, who of course knows the opponent inside out, after the 4-1 hit. “The team showed what it can do.” He too. Because their matchmaking plan completely worked. His players pestered the Bayern stars with constant pressure and quickly switched to winning the ball. Hansi Flick, Bayern coach: “A big compliment to Sebastian. He hired his team well. “
Suddenly, Sebastian is no longer just Dieter’s scion and Uli’s nephew. He’s making a name for himself in the Bundesliga. He dreamed of this long before as he also wanted to become a professional footballer. But sometime in his twenties, Sebastian realized that he didn’t have the same talent as his father or uncle. “I have decided that at 25 I don’t necessarily have to aim for a career as a second division player. That was not an option for me, “he once said in an interview with” Spox. ” He finished his football career at the age of 28.
He reached the Bundesliga at 38
Now, at the age of 38, he made it to the Bundesliga! Hoeness, who once sat with Thomas Tuchel, Pep Guardiola or Huub Stevens, is even sensationally at the top of the table after matchday two with Hoffenheim and amazes the whole of Germany. Not quite. Papa Dieter said after Sebastian’s transfer from Bayern II to TSG this summer: “Sebastian can do something and he’s ready! He has already shown that he is always learning something new and in development »
And why Bayern didn’t like to let him go a few weeks ago has been clear to everyone since Sunday.
