Madness of Bern
It was even more spectacular in Bern. Bayer Leverkusen was a guest at the Young Boys. The Swiss led 3-0 at halftime, but the Werkself came out of the locker room as if transformed and equalized within 25 minutes. A final phase followed with an open visor – with a happier end for Young Boys. Just before the final whistle, Jordan Siebatcheu scored the winning goal. “The madness of Bern”is the headline of the ‘Berner Zeitung’, rightly so. The ‘look’ goes in a similar direction and saw: “Europa League crazy!”. For the ‘Neue Zürcher Zeitung’ the encounter was simple “A rollercoaster of emotions”.
Messi confusion
The uncertain future of Lionel Messi also concerns the media in England. After all, Manchester City should squint for a commitment with Pep Guardiola. According to the ‘Sun’, the Skyblues have their offer from the summer of the equivalent of almost 700 million euros “Shredded”. Messi is only expected to wave 500 million euros for an eight-year collaboration – initially as a player for ManCity and New York City, later as a brand ambassador. Meanwhile, Sky Sports refers this message to the realm of fables. A ManCity spokesman said that there had been no talks, let alone an offer. There remain many question marks about the future of La Pulga.
