While the first team of FC Bayern is playing for the World Cup under the Qatar sun, the second representation of the record champions is fighting for points in adverse weather conditions at home.

And has to take harsh criticism.

On Wednesday evening Munich played in the third division against FSV Zwickau and were unable to get the game to run smoothly.

At least that is the accusation of the guests, who lost the hard-fought game with 2: 3.

After the final whistle, Zwickau's coach Joe Enochs criticized the hosts' poor organization.

Because no colored chalk was available for the lines of the snow-covered playing field in the stadium on Grünwalder Strasse, the half-time break on Wednesday evening lasted 40 minutes instead of the 15 minutes actually intended.

The lines were no longer visible, the chalk first had to be organized and applied to the square during the break.

“I didn't quite understand why they didn't have a red color for the lines.

If they don't have a red color here according to the weather forecast, then we can bring some from Zwickau for Bayern next time, ”said Enochs at MagentaSport.

Even before kick-off, the poor visibility of the lines was an issue: “I asked why we didn't have red lines.

You said: No, it doesn't snow that often here in Munich. "

42 days of snow in Munich

An amazing sentence.

After all, there is no German metropolis with more snow than Munich.

According to the German Meteorological Service, there was 42 days of snow in the Bavarian capital between 2009 and 2019.

For comparison: Berlin has 27 days, Hamburg 24 days.

However, Enochs did not want to accept the incident as an excuse for the defeat.

This is due exclusively to the performance of his team.

Two of the three goals conceded were own goals, and the FSV were already 0-2 behind after a quarter of an hour.

Zwickau is stuck in eleventh place in the middle of the table and is now only two points ahead of Munich, who worked their way up to twelfth place.
