Bavarian Podcast Works — Preview Show: Borussia Dortmund vs. Bayern Munich (Bundesliga)

Bayern Munich is back in action, the German national team made some progress, there are transfer rumors galore, and, overall, the craziness is back. This episode of the Weekend Warm-up hits on much of that, so let’s get right to it and take a look at what is on tap: A preview of Bayern Munich vs. Mainz 05 — and why this could be a very important match under less-than-ideal conditions for the Bavarians (even if Manuel Neuer should be back). Some thoughts on the recent transfer rumors surrounding Jamal Musiala and why he might no longer he the fresh-faced phenom that fans have grown to love. Some final thoughts on the German national team’s recent set of games and wondering what Julian Nagelsmann’s plan will be moving forward. Learn more about your ad choices.

Germany and Mexico squared off in an international friendly — in Philadelphia, PA — at the same time as a Major League Baseball playoff game between the Philadelphia Phillies and Arizona Diamondbacks and also with the Philadelphia Flyers playing the Vancouver Canucks in the NHL home opener. Needless to say, it was chaos in South Philly at the stadium complex as Germany and Mexico fought to a 2-2 draw, which felt...right. Let’s take a look at what is on tap for this episode: Checking out Julian Nagelsmann’s starting XI. A rundown of the scoring. The game was pure chaos, but was fun...and nerve-wracking...and I am mostly concerned for how anyone got home from that Park-nado that must have occurred in South Philly. Some thoughts on what we learned about Germany during this international break. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Hosted on Acast.
