Three days before the Super Bowl in Los Angeles and one day after the announcement of the NFL game in Munich, anticipation is rising among the FC Bayern players and coaches. Julian Nagelsmann called the play "Säbener 51" as quarterback and found receiver Omar Richards with a long throw, Thomas Müller tried his hand at kicking, Malik Tillman scored a field goal over the fence and Robert Lewandowski demonstrated his touchdown celebration in his usual manner. In other words FC Bayern has NFL fever!
After an intensive session on Thursday morning in stunning weather in Munich and three days before the Bundesliga away game at Bochum, the Bayern players promptly swapped their round ball for an oval one and, in high spirits, proceeded to throw it around the pitch for 20 minutes. There's great anticipation for the NFL's first regular game at the Allianz Arena in the 2022 season!
