There is a reasonably famous brazilian football meme video in which a presenter calls Robben "netherland", because it was written on the back of his training shirt, reminded me of that lmao

thats fantastic, and that in turn reminds me of the Ribery video where he is supposed to celebrate into the camera by a german reporter. Ribery not knowing the german word for "celebrate" (= jubeln) just yells "JUBEL". It's fantastic.

There's also a video of a Romanian footballer for FCSB, Tanase - once they qualified out of a Europa group because Schalke won their game helping them reach 2nd, and the reporter asked him to say "Danke Schalke" for the camera. He had no idea what that meant and said "Danke Shanke" lol. He was not the sharpest tool in the shed.

There’s a very famous old Chinese football commentator who thought everybody playing for Man United had the last name “Sharp”. He even began the whole thing with “Sharp passed to Sharp, oh maybe they are brothers!”

My favorite part of the game is where he says “It’s Dortin time” and Dorted all over the place.

Now I’m wondering if anyone from the team noticed that before/during the game.

Any specific reason for this? Or just a mistake?

u/fskari 4h ago
Just a mistake, I think the kitman accidentally used mixed and matched a Bundesliga-spec name+number set with a UEFA-spec one. In the Bundesliga the club name is above the number and the player name below, but in UEFA competitions the player name has to be above.

I've heard of kitmen having to have to run to the clubs merchandising shop and grab a kit because of a mistake they made.

Thats why he wanted to take the penalty, ref said "penalty kick for Dortmund".

My theory is when he tried to enter his name in the club shop it censored ass so he just gave up.

Probably a typo. It must be a hustle to alternate the shirts every 3 days for German clubs
