Andere europäische Mannschaften (Fußball und Sport allgemein)

Wird bei den anderen Europäern eigentlich auch so viel über Wetter, Jetlag u.ä. gesprochen? Vielleicht übertreibe ich jetzt ein bisschen, aber irgendwie werde ich das Gefühl nicht los, dass wir einfach keine gute Mentalität im Verein haben (Stichwort Siegermentalität).

The Athletic hat dem ganzen einen eigenen Artikel gewidmet. Daraus u. a.:
Timothy Weah, Juventus:

I only played a half, and it was like, I was dying out there. It was really hot.”

Joaquin Piquerez, Palmeiras:

Today was too hot and the time of the day when we played did not help. I asked Egyptian players what they thought of the heat and even they said it was hot, even though they are used to playing in a hot climate.

Mauricio, Palmeiras:

The heat definitely had an impact today. We couldn’t play with the same intensity. We had to slow things down and manage the tempo.

Lorente, Atletico:

It’s impossible, terribly hot. My toenails were hurting; I couldn’t slow down or speed up. It was unbelievable.

Garcia, Real Madrid:

It was very hot, the match was at an hour that we are not used to playing at. It would have been better to play at a different time.

Alonso, Real Madrid:

Vinicius Junior was having cramps because of the heat, because of the pitch.

Maresca, Chelsea:

It’s almost impossible to train, or to make a session because of the weather now. I always try to avoid excuses, but I try to be honest: it’s not about excuses, it’s about reality. It is an excuse when it is not hot and we say that it is hot. That is an excuse. But if it’s hot, it’s hot. And it is difficult to work with this temperature. But we are here, we are trying to do our best and we are going to try to win again. This is the only thing that we can say and we can do

Luis Enrique, PSG:

The match was clearly influenced by the temperature. The time slot is great for European audiences, but the teams are suffering.

Vitinha, PSG:

It’s hot at this time. I’m all red. It was really difficult.

Ein Palmeiras Fan:

Back home, our league matches don’t start until after 4 or 5pm. This is not a good time.
