Barrow will be very disappointed, a proper local derby was nearly attainable for the first time since Workington Town got kicked out. Carlisle are probably the lucky ones as Barrow would probably cane them atm
I didn't follow Bundesliga much-- I mostly follow EPL, UCL, and MLS-- but woohoo! time to adopt a team! I'm going with Dortmund-- they have Gio Reyna (NYCFC academy product) and they are not obnoxious win-every-year Bayern, but they do have a shot and make Champions League pretty often. I root for enough hopeless teams as it is (Tottenham, and the Jets of course)
My team is Werder Bremen. But I'm a big DFB fan first so I root for Bayern Munich as well. Being a Jets,Pirates & Grieving Whaler fan I feel no guilt lol
Do you like Werder because they are... green and white? haha A co-worker of mine likes Freiburg. He's kind of a dick, so fuck Freiburg. Fuck off RB Leipzig as well, because fuck off Red Bull.
Green team who I fell in love w. when they were sportscenter darlings in the mid 2000's. Also area of Germany my ancestors are supposedly from. Germany has alot of great teams that are easy to tell apart. they arent all the exact same color like EPL. I can't stand Freiburg either lol
I don't usually watch Bundesliiga either, but oh how I welcome some live sports, I've missed it. Placed a little bet just for fun, I have missed that too Leverkusen for me too, not for anything else but there's a Finnish goalkeeper there and one of Finnish greats, Sami Hyypiä, used to coach them few years ago.
This feels weird without fans.. why don't they just play some generic crowd noise through the PA system.
The Dortmund v schalke game is one of the biggest derbies in world football Started off very slowly but the tackles and pace of the game getting more lively 30 mins in Dortmund just scored 1-0
The Berlin Derby tonight 2-0 to Hertha so far decent game Union are strong in the air from set pieces but Hertha playing by far the better football(he says with fuck all else to do on a Friday night).......man I can't wait for premier league and NBA to start again
The game wasn’t shown in US today. Tomorrow a double header. My Bayer is playing Monchengladbach. Huge game for a Champions League spot.
