Lahm and Alonso: 'Germany is Real Madrid National Teams (Part I)!'

Many players have raised the World Cup over their heads. Less common, however, are those who have resorted to innovation to surprise their opponents and win it. Philipp Lahm and Xavi Alonso belong to this category. The Bavarian, the captain of the German championship in 2014, traveled to Madrid to visit Basque, a champion of Spain in 2010. At the table, the two speak to El Pais and Zuddjoke Zeitung about the beginning of the World Cup in Russia, and about the ideas that transformed the football game in the course of the new century.
- Mr Lahm, Germany wants to host Euro 2024, and you said that this forum is very important to the community. Does your country really need anything like this?
- Philipp Lahm (FR): A society has never evolved only with progress, progress and progress. Remember the times before World Cup 2006:We had problems in the first years of the Big Coalition with ubiquitous unemployment and strikes, but the World Cup united us. Such for ums make people talk again. Football unites. The stadium is the only place where it does not matter who is sitting next to you. The president of a big company can be a neighbor of the rostrum worker. At the stadium, in the fan clubs, in the salons, in the grill bars -;such a tournament makes people communicate. We have 27, 000 clubs predicted by buy over under picks in Germany and almost all of their employees work for no money, so a forum can be motivation for them as well. I know it from my mother who works at the lower age levels at FT Gerne. In the end, these are just the people who pass the values of the young.
`I remember that at the 2006 World Cup there were political demonstrations of the ultra-low, according to which players without deep German roots should not play for the national team. Ten years have passed and this team has become a multicultural blend, but at the s ame time retaining the distinctive German character and spirit. How did this process go?
- PH:These manifestations came from a very large minority of citizens. Our national team reflects the German society. One team pursues a common goal and the population can fully identify with our selection because it is a mirror of how we live, how open we are. Yes, there are undoubtedly those voices you have spoken about, but the vast majority is identified with their Deutsche Mannschaft.
- Xabi Alonso:At the 2006 World Cup, the German society was so involved in the event, not just at the stadiums, that I had never seen a similar situation on the streets anywhere else, but I was at other world championships. It was a real holiday, and in football it was the beginning of the great Germany. Then she was very close to something big on her own territory, but that team was the embrace of Brazil`s 2014 World Champion. Jurgen Klinsmann introduced major changes and the fruit was harvested ever since. With my experience since then and after my three years of living in Germany, I fully understand why this country is so important in Europe and around the world. Is not accidental -;the question is of character, of the qualities of the people. The multicultural nature of the national team is a true reflection of the multicultural nature of German society.
