Leroy Sané: Ein "Unterschiedsspieler" als Hoffnungsträger

Fußball-Rekordmeister FC Bayern München hat seinen prominenten Neuzugang Leroy Sané mit viel Lob und Vorschusslorbeeren der Öffentlichkeit vorgestellt. Der Außenstürmer, der von Manchester City kommt, geht das Abenteuer München mit viel Ehrgeiz an.

Der 24-jährige Nationalspieler sagte, er sei "sehr sehr gut aufgenommen" worden. Alle im Verein hätten voll hinter dem Transfer gestanden und ihm "ein sehr gutes Gefühl gegeben." Das habe den Ausschlag für den Wechsel gegeben: "Jetzt freue ich mich, dass ich endlich hier sein darf." Er selbst habe "einen neuen Reiz" gebraucht.

"Ich wollte zu einem Verein wechseln, der die Champions League gewinnen kann, und das ist der FC Bayern zu einhundert Prozent." Leroy Sané bei seiner Vorstellung



"Viele Leute sagen Sahne"


Anders als in den letzten Jahren, als der frühere Schalker gerne alle Blicke auf sich lenkte und sich schon mal mit schrillen Outfits in der Öffentlichkeit zeigte, gab sich Sané bei seiner Vorstellung bewusst zurückhaltend und "normal".
Mit einem weißen Sweatshirt bekleidet betonte Sané mehrfach, dass es ihm vor allem darum geht, dem Klub zu helfen, seine großen Ziele zu erreichen. Auf die Frage nach der manchmal falschen Aussprache seines Nachnamens antwortete er launig: "Viele viele Leute sagen 'Sahne', ja. Das macht mir aber nicht wirklich viel aus."

Sanés Vorzüge: Schnelligkeit, Dribbelstärke, Zug zum Tor

Von den Bayern-Verantwortlichen nahmen mit Sportdirektor Hasan Salihamidzic, Vorstandschef Karl-Heinz Rummenigge und Vorstandsmitglied Oliver Kahn gleich drei Hochkaräter neben Sané auf dem Podium Platz. Sie alle waren voll des Lobes für den zweitteuersten Bayern-Neuzugang aller Zeiten.
"Mit Leroy ist es uns gelungen, einen Spieler zu bekommen, der den Unterschied heute im Fußball, wie er gespielt wird, ausmachen kann", sagte etwa Kahn. Für Sportvorstand Hasan Salihamidzic ist Sané ein "außergewöhnlicher Außenspieler, ein Spieler, der genau zum FC Bayern passt, weil er in den engen Räumen die Lösungen hat." Sané sei nicht nur schnell, sondern auch "mental richtig stark" und könne "unter Druck gute Leistungen bringen".
Rummenigge hob Sanés Schnelligkeit, seine Dribbelstärke und seinen Zug zum Tor vor und sagte, mit der Verpflichtung habe man Trainer Hansi Flick einen Wunsch erfüllt. "Ich denke, wir werden viel Freude an ihm haben."

Torcidas Alemãs, a série: maiores torcidas e outros dados





Maiores torcidas por região(Foto: Der Spiegel)

Maior média de público entre ligas nacionais do mundo e casa do clube com a maior média de público do mundo, em se tratando de torcida a Alemanha tem uma das culturas de arquibancada mais presentes do mundo. Neste post de encerramento da série Torcidas Alemãs mostraremos alguns dos números das torcidas, como a quantidade de sócios, média de público e o sempre polêmico debate sobre quais são as maiores torcidas.

Maiores torcidas

Não existem tantas pesquisas assim sobre a maior torcida da Alemanha, tradicionalmente sempre se considerou a do Schalke 04 como a maior, mas há algum tempo sabe-se que o Bayern pegou o posto. Aqui revelaremos duas pesquisas recentes de institutos alemães respeitados e outros dados coletados de portais de confiança. Antes disso, vejamos primeiro o levantamento do Sport + Markt amplamente explicado em um excelente texto da Trivela de 2013. Segundo essa pesquisa as maiores torcidas são:
ClubeNúmero de torcedoresPorcentagem
Bayern de Munique9,3 milhões24,9%
Borussia Dortmund5,7 milhões15,3%
Werder Bremen3,3 milhões8,9%
Hamburgo2,8 milhões7,5%
Borussia M’gladbach2,7 milhões7,2%
Nessa pesquisa se sente claramente a falta da torcida do Schalke. É meio estranho pensar que ela tenha ido de primeira colocada para fora do top 5, mas estes são os dados expostos no texto e na pesquisa. Esse outro gráfico exibe de maneira interessante a distribuição das torcidas pelo país, elencando o percentual de torcedores dos clubes por região da Alemanha:




Mas existem outros dados. Em texto com algumas informações interessantes do blog Sinopse do Futebol temos um ranking um pouco diferente. No texto são mencionadas três diferentes pesquisas, apesar dos dados entre elas não diferirem tanto assim.
A primeira delas é a pesquisa do Instituto de Allensbach, um dos principais institutos de pesquisa da Alemanha, feita no ano de 2012:
ClubeNúmero de torcedoresPorcentagem
Bayern de Munique15,1 milhões19%
Borussia Dortmund10,9 milhões14%
Schalke 049,3 milhões12%
Werder Bremen6,8 milhões8%
Hamburgo6,4 milhões8%
Borussia M’gladbach5,2 milhões6%
Stuttgart4,9 milhões6%
Köln4,6 milhões6%
Bayer Leverkusen4,1 milhões5%
Hannover 964 milhões5%
Outra pesquisa também foi feita em 2012 pelo ISBS, que apesar de não exibir o número bruto, traz o percentual de torcedores.
ClubesPorcentagem
Bayern de Munique25,1%
Borussia Dortmund18,6%
Schalke 047,0%
Borussia M’gladbach5,2%
Werder Bremen4,6%
Stuttgart4,1%
Hamburgo3,8%
Herta Berlin2,8%
Köln2,8%
Hannover 962,7%
No geral, o que podemos ter pelas pesquisas é que as torcidas de Bayern, Dortmund e Schalke são as 3 maiores da Alemanha. É possível observar também que mesmo tendo em algum momento a maior torcida da Alemanha, hoje o Schalke não só está atrás do Bayern, como também foi ultrapassado pelo Borussia Dortmund, seu maior rival. Processo complicado de estagnação, enquanto os adversários continuaram a expandir seu número de adeptos.


Número de sócios

Ao contrário do tamanho das torcidas, a quantidade de sócios é mensurada de maneira mais objetiva. O clube com maior número de sócios no mundo inteiro é o Bayern de Munique, com algo em torno de 270 mil sócios. Confira o ranking dos cinco clubes com mais associados segundo o site alemão Statistica.
ClubeNúmero de sócios
Bayern de Munique270 mil
Schalke 04137 mil
Borussia Dortmund130 mil
Köln75 mil
Borussia M’gladbach70 mil
Entre os times que frequentaram a Bundesliga na temporada 2015/2016 o time com menor número de sócios ao início da temporada era o Ingolstadt, com apenas mil sócios. Ainda que os números variem ligeiramente, nenhum ranking diverge entre os cinco clubes com maior número de associados.

Média de público

Não deve ser novidade pra quem conhece o futebol alemão que o Borussia Dortmund tem a maior média de público do mundo, fato que se repete desde a temporada 1998 de maneira sequencial. A Bundesliga é conhecida por ser uma liga de estádios sempre cheios. Em 2015/2016 a média de público foi a seguinte:
ClubeEstádio (capacidade)Média de público
Borussia DortmundSignal Iduna Park (81.359)81.178 (99,7%)
Bayern de MuniqueAllianz Arena (75.000)75.000 (100%)
Schalke 04Veltins Arena (62.271)61.386 (98,5%)
HamburgoVolksparkstadion (57.000)53.700 (94,2%)
StuttgartMercedes-Benz Arena (60.441)51.983 (86%)
Borussia M’gladbachBorussia-Park (54.010)51.715 (95,7%)
Herta BerlinOlympiastadion (74.475)49.704 (66,7%)
KölnRhein-Energie Stadion (50.000)48.676 (97,3%)
Eintracht FrankfurtCommerzbank Arena (51.500)46.676 (90,6%)
Hannover 96HDI-Arena (49.000)41.246 (84,1%)
Werder BremenWerser Stadion (42.100)40.935 (97,2%)
MainzCoface Arena (34.000)31.053 (91,3%)
Bayer LeverkusenBayArena (30.210)29.085 (96,2%)
AugsburgWWK Arena (30.660)29.017 (94,6%)
WolfsburgVolkswagen Arena(30.000)28.945 (96,4%)
HoffenheimWhirsol-Rhein-Neckar Arena (30.150)27.615 (92,05%)
DarmstadtMeck Stadion (17.000)16.647 (97,9%)
IngolstadtAudi Stadion (15.000)14.836 (98,9%)
A primeira coisa que salta aos olhos é o fato de que praticamente todos os clubes tem média de ocupação na casa dos 90 por cento. A exceção se faz ao Stuttgart, Hertha Berlin e Hannover 96, o que mostra que os estádios estão sempre cheios mesmo com times com os menores estádios. O Hertha, que é exceção a regra dos 90 por cento, tem a menor ocupação apesar da média altíssima até para padrões europeus – quase 50 mil por jogo.

Como já foi falado em edições anteriores, o fenômeno da popularidade da Bundesliga se dá pelo respeito ao torcedor e pela atratividade de um jogo. Desde a partida até na festa nas arquibancadas o campeonato possui atrativos imensos para quem vai ao estádio.
E assim se encerra a série das torcidas alemães, com um post que apesar de se concentrar a frieza dos números, mostra a conclusão matemática de tudo o que foi falado aqui: quando se trata de torcida, seja na festa, seja na presença, seja na segurança ou qualquer outro quesito, a Bundesliga faz com que 7 a 1 pareça pouco não só contra o Brasil.

Columbus Crew vs Minnesota United Prediction & Match Preview

Minnesota United will be in memory of their last season play-off when they didn’t pass the first round, and it seems as if this season will be probably similar. They have been strong in the campaign, but not likely strong enough to win over the home team.

Columbus Crew vs Minnesota United Match preview

Columbus Crew has been unbeaten in all their five clashes in the regular fixtures with four clean sheets in it showing their powerful defense in the campaign.
Their previous encounter was on the road and they won against Atlanta United with a 0-1 scoreline.
In the meantime, Minnesota United has also stayed unbeaten in all their matches this season with two draws in it and has scored 12 goals, showing their excellence in scoring goals.
They will visit after a 2-2 draw on the road against Colorado Rapids last time out in the league.
From that, we can expect an exciting encounter at the neutral location with a probable chance of both teams finding the back of the net in ninety minutes.

Columbus Crew vs Minnesota United Head-to-head (h2h)

  • The host has recorded three of the four overall wins.
  • Both teams have scored in only one of the four fixtures.
  • Their previous encounter gave a 1-0 home win for Minnesota.
  • The Crew has kept two clean sheets out of their three win

Columbus Crew vs Minnesota United Prediction

Columbus Crew has a strong chance at home with their splendid return post lockdown; while the visitor hasn’t been successful against the home team in three out of four h2h clashes since 2017.
The Black and Gold had a wonderful season in MLS with just one goal conceded in their five fixtures from the regular season fixtures. They have lost none of the matches in the league this season.
Minnesota United is also in a pleasant form in the campaign with an unbeaten run in the schedule with 2 draws in it. They are strong in their scoring and have netted 12 goals so far this season.
On that note, it is likely to see both teams in the scoresheet and the host qualifying to the quarter-finals with their better overall form in the league.
The draw no bet over Columbus Crew and for them to qualify will be the best bets in the clash. The BTTS will also come in handy for the punters in ninety minutes.

Columbus Crew vs Minnesota United Betting tips

  • Draw no bet: Columbus Crew @ 1.50 (1/2).
  • Both teams to score: Yes @ 1.57 (4/7).
  • Columbus Crew to qualify @ 1.57 (4/7).

Molde vs Valerenga Prediction & Match Preview

Molde vs Valerenga
Norway – Eliteserien
Date: Wednesday, 29 July 2020
Kick-Off at 19:30 UK/ 20:30 CET
Venue: Aker Stadion.
The hosts suffered their first defeat of the season at the hands of the toppers. This put an end of the 4-match winning streak they had before the last fixture.

With this performance they are second in the table at present. But the reigning champions are not far from the top in terms of the points.
The away team has done well at the opening quarter of the league. A team that finished tenth last time around is currently third in the table.
The only defeat they suffered until now came in an away game. So, they will be nervous facing the holders away from home.

Molde vs Valerenga: Head-to-head (h2h)

  • MFK is on a three-match winning streak against this opposition.
  • The champs have not lost any of their six previous clashes with Valerenga.
  • All five of those six games had more than 2.5 goals in total.
  • The hosts remain unbeaten in any competitive head to head games at this ground since 2010.
  • More than 2.5 goals were scored in six of the nine games during that period.

Molde vs Valerenga: Prediction

The champions are still recovering from their first defeat of the season. They have a long way to go to get back at the top. This is one fixture which they have dominated over the years.
Valerenga have not won any game at this ground in over a decade. So we can expect the hosts having most of the possession and get all three points as well.
The head to head stats clearly point that this fixture was full of goals. More than 2.5 goals were scored in the majority of clashes between them at this ground.
In nine of the 10 games played by Molde this season, the final score had over 2.5 goals as well. But at home they have conceded only two goals in four matches scoring 12 in return.
So, we can expect a final score with over 2.5 goals and only one team scoring them.

Molde vs Valerenga: Betting Tips

  • Over 2.5 goals @ 1.46 (5/11).
  • Both teams

Stromsgodset vs Brann Prediction & Match Preview

Stromsgodset vs Brann
Norway – Eliteserien
Date: Wednesday, 29 July 2020
Kick-Off at 17:00 UK/ 18:00 CET
Venue: Marienlyst Stadion (Drammen).
The Godsef is on a two-match losing streak at present. They have lost more matches than they have won so far. After the bottom side Aalesund, Stroemsgodset is the team that has conceded most number of goals.
The away side started the season well. But they tend to draw most of their matches. From the 10 games they have four wins and three draws. Currently they are on a three-match winless run.
The defence has given away all the fourteen goals that the attacking unit managed to score. Most of these goals were conceded in matches on the road.

Stromsgodset vs Brann: Head-to-head (h2h)

  • The home side has two wins and a defeat in five previous matches with this opposition.
  • More than 2.5 goals were scored in three of those five games across all venues.
  • Four games during that spell also had goals at both ends of the field.
  • The hosts are unbeaten in four recent head to head matches at this ground.
  • More than 2.5 goals were scored in four of those five clashes here.
  • Both sides found the back of the net in four of those games as well.

Stromsgodset vs Brann: Prediction

The home side may be below their upcoming opposition in the table. But they have not lost to the latter at this ground for more than four years now.
Their last meetings back in November 2019 saw the home team win by six goals and kept a clean sheet as well. But the majority of their clashes in general saw both of them get goals.
The away side is on a losing streak in games on the road. They will get chances to score in this one even though they have not troubled the scores in last two trips. The home side is conceding goals for sun at home as they have given away eight goals in five games in front of their own crowd.
So I am backing a Double Chance for a draw or the hosts winning and both teams netting goals.

Stromsgodset vs Brann: Betting Tips

  • Double Chance: Draw or Stromsgodset to win @ 1.52 (1/2).
  • Both teams to score @ 1.62 (5/8).
