Olympia heroine Ann-Katrin Berger is a footballer of the year

From the first Krebs patient to the Elfmeterheld at Olympia and now at the German football player of the year: Torhüterin Ann-Katrin Berger has his first experiences with the “Kicker” organizer of Wahl during his performance and the succession of Alexandra Popp. ‘Ich it is not that it is a first bad experience. It is a beautiful match, the 33-year-old age of US-Club NJ/NY Gotham FC. «At Torhütern it is very rare that they win such a title.»

Gwinn and Oberdorf on the Platz zwei en drei

Die bisher einzige Torfrau, diese Auszeichnung erhielt, war 1998 Silke Rottenberg. Zweite hinter Berger (144 Stimmen) with Giulia Gwinn from FC Bayern (71). The written Platz was invested by Lena Oberdorf (66), who is a member of VfL Wolfsburg after Munich and has completed a Kreuzband-Operation at Olympia.

Berger war von Interimsbundestrainer Horst Hrubesch was first at the Olympic Games with his number one of the long-time Stammkeeperin Merle Frohms before he would become. It is clear that the children have had a traumatic experience in Turnier – after all, the time has passed: Berger had the last year – until 2022 when the EM – even the Diagnosis Schilddrüsenkrebs will be completed. Both males are standing in the inner hall of Monate wieder auf dem Rasen.

Berger must overcome the “falling Widerstände”.

“Anne is not a strong Torhüterin, but one of the most influential people, who must be able to keep up with the wind and always be able to cope with it,” lobbed Hrubesch.

At Olympia Berger experienced his own performance in the “Happy End”: The four-count final of Canada goes to the eleven-meter shootout two shots, and he himself is by dot antrat and traf. I play on a place that the world champions of the Spanish Berger play in the last minute of the night game a foul meter of Alexia Putellas. It is certain that the German team is 1:0 and the bronze medal.

No guarantee on Stammplatz von Wück

«I never wanted to play fußball. Ich wusste, dass ich noch nicht bin,” said Berger. The players of FC Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Turbine Potsdam relate to history with a critique: «Man is a German legend – and that is my own life to be able to play – Players with 33 years of experience in Europe are located no more. Then he is a man and not more than happy.” If Torhüterinnen are otherwise complete, the Frauenfußball is like that.

I am proud of the results that the Hrubesch-Nachfolger Christian Wück de Frage nach der künftigen Stammtorhüterin offen gelassen. “Für mich gibt es zwei Nummer Einsen”, says the 51-Jährige at the blessing Vorstellung am Freitag in Frankfurt am Main.
