Bayern's path to the Club World Cup has not got off to a good start. The german champion I was planning to fly to Qatar last night, after his match against Hertha Berlin, but finally did it seven hours later than planned.
To get to travel, they had to take off before midnight, at which time the Berlin airport closes until 5 in the morning. The match against Hertha was even half an hour early to make it easier for the Bavarians to leave the country before the cut-off time, but finally ice has prevented the Bayern plane from being ready. The initial flight was scheduled at 11:15 p.m.. Half an hour before Bayern was already at the airport, but the device was not in condition since part of its fuselage was frozen.
When the plane was finally ready, the clock passed midnight by 30 seconds. Too late. The aircraft did not receive authorization from the Brandenburg authorities, with whom there were problems from the beginning in coordinating the trip to the Asian country.
Rummenigge expressed his discomfort to Bild: “We feel ripped off by the Brandenburg authorities. They are not even aware of what they did to the team“.
