After Karim Adeyemi’s winning goal against Chelsea, emotions ran high in the Dortmund stadium – the DAZN expert and ex-DFB captain Michael Ballack also felt it. When the German national player Adeyemi scored for Borussia Dortmund in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League (63rd minute), Ballack and DAZN commentator Uli Lever in the stands said they saw the exuberant joy of the fans up close. “I can tell you, we got the beer shower here, but hey, let’s take it with us,” Hebe told viewers.

Ballack’s subsequent comment caused some excitement on social media. “Asi, ey,” scolded the vice world champion from 2002 into the microphone. Another comment that Ballack apparently wanted to make was no longer heard, instead the spectators only heard the loud cheering of the fans in the stadium. The 46-year-old Ballack has been working as an expert for the games of the Champions League for the fee-based Internet broadcaster DAZN since this season.
