(ANSA) – ROME, JUL 30 – No play offs, we continue with the traditional formula. In German football which, like everyone in Germany, is preparing to deal with the energy crisis in the coming months, the demand to change the format of the Bundesliga is growing, because it would perhaps be the only way to interrupt Bayern Munich’s domination, in the 2022 national champion for the tenth consecutive year. In practice, the idea was to introduce the playoffs at the end of the regular season but, on the final day of the Super Cup between Bayern and Leipzig (they face each other tonight), the marketing director of ‘Bundesliga International’, Peer Naubert, guarantees that the championship will remain as it is.
“We must make sure to reinforce the competition – his words – and not weaken the champion team. Of course we would like more competitiveness to return, but we do not think about the playoffs, it is something that we have not taken into consideration. And, in any case, before making such a decision we should hear from the players. ” “Football has its romanticism – said Naubert -, and if a club is dominating in the league, we must create conditions so that the others can compete as well. For example, it is incredible what Leipzig has built in recent years and it is a great challenge to go against a dominant club like Bayern “.
