The Bundesliga is back in full swing despite the Corona crisis, games are taking place without spectators. Now Bayern star Kimmich has commented on the ghost games – and compares them to the U17.
Joshua Kimmich has been playing for Bayern since 2015 and has experienced a lot since then. However, the current situation in the Corona crisis is also new for the record champion’s top performer. In an interview with the Independent, the midfielder said: “You run onto the field and it’s like in the U17 or youth. You are on the field and it starts. I usually run outside and enjoy the atmosphere that Fans, the stadium. The arena is always full and that’s great. Maybe I miss that most. “
Kimmich also reports on the conditions that have arisen due to the circumstances. He goes on to say, “Maybe the focus is now on the game. It’s not a show. Also, players don’t do big shows when they’re fouled.”
Different handling of the referee
According to the midfielder, the relationship with the referee has also changed: “I am not so emotional when I talk to the referee. When the fans are loud and screaming, you are more emotional and talk to the referee differently.”
