Last weekend, in a match in the 35th round of the 2021-22 Bundesliga, the leader Magdeburg took on mid-range side Zwickau at home. If won, Magdeburg will be promoted to the Bundesliga early, so the match attracted many Magdeburg fans to watch the game, and Magdeburg's home MDCC Arena was full.
Judging from the atmosphere of the scene, this Bundesliga match is no different from the Bundesliga.
In the end, Magdeburg defeated Zwickau 3-0 at home, and after scoring 3 points, 22 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses accumulated 72 points, Magdeburg locked up the Bundesliga championship in advance and successfully promoted to the Bundesliga.
At the final whistle, many Magdeburg fans rushed into the field, excited men, women and children holding high flags and waving scarves, and surrounded the Magdeburg players to celebrate, and the scene became an ocean of joy.
Such a stadium, such a fan, such an atmosphere, and this is just a scene in the Bundesliga.
When it comes to Magdeburg, the first thing that many people think of may be the famous Magdeburg hemispheric experiment.
In football, Magdeburg also had brilliant moments.
Founded in 1965, FC Magdeburg, as the east German team at the time, lifted the European Cup Winners' Cup in the 1973-74 season, and in the final, Magdeburg defeated Trapatoni's AC Milan, who was 35 years old at the time, just began his coaching career.
After the reunification of East germany and West Germany, Magdeburg has not yet rushed to the Bundesliga, but has played in the Bundesliga, and the last time the team appeared in the Bundesliga was in the 2018-19 season, and Magdeburg, as a promotion horse, fell back to the Bundesliga at the end of that season. After three more seasons in bundesliga, Magdeburg is now promoted to Bundesliga again, and in the next 2022-23 season, the team will once again play against Bundesliga teams.
Japanese winger Tatsuya Ito, who played with Hamburg in the Bundesliga, is currently playing for Magdeburg and came to Magdeburg on loan from Belgian side St. Turden in January and has scored two goals for Magdeburg in The Bundesliga. In the 2017-18 season, Tatsuya Ito, then 20, made his Bundesliga debut in Hamburg, making a total of 20 Bundesliga appearances that season. However, in the following years, his career development was not smooth, leaving Hamburg to join belgian side St. Turden, Ito Tatsuya had limited opportunities to play, failed to occupy the main position in the team, and came to Bundesliga side Magdeburg on loan in January this year, and eventually helped the team to successfully promote to the Bundesliga.
The top two in the Bundesliga will be promoted directly to the Bundesliga, and the second place in the 2021-22 Bundesliga table is Kaiserslautern, for which fans will not be unfamiliar. In the 1997–98 season, Rehagel led Kaiserslautern to a Bundesliga title as a promoted horse, beating Bayern Munich in the standings.
The teams currently ranked third and fourth in the Bundesliga table are also familiar faces, namely Braunschweig and Munich 1860. Borussia Dortmund ii and Freiburg II are also currently playing in the Bundesliga.
Today's look at the geography of ball, that's it.
