Bayern’s turning point, Haaland, coronavirus: The Bundesliga season in pictures Berlin (AFP) – The curtain came down on the 2019/20 German Bundesliga season on Saturday, with Bayern Munich celebrating another title after the rush to finish the campaign in the wake of the long coronavirus shutdown. AFP Sport looks back at five memorable moments from the season in Germany: – Bayern’s Frankurt mauling – Bayern showed signs of vulnerability by drawing two of their opening four league games under Niko Kovac. Their start to the campaign was slow by their standards, but their 5-1 mauling in Frankfurt in November proved to be the turning point for them. It was the first time in a decade Bayern had conceded five goals in a Bundesliga match and Kovac was sacked the next day. In came Hansi Flick, initially appointed as caretaker coach, and Bayern have not looked back. Flick has set a new club record by winning 28 of his first 31 games in charge. One of his key moves was restoring Thomas Mueller to the line-up — Mueller went on to provide a league-record 21 assists this season, while Robert Lewandowski scored 34 goals and ended the season as the Bundesliga’s top scorer for the fifth time. Having won an eighth straight league title, Bayern next face Bayer Leverkusen in the German Cup final and could still claim the treble when the Champions League resumes in August. – Phenomenal Haaland – Norwegian goal-machine Erling Braut Haaland lived up to the hype at Borussia Dortmund following his 20 million-euro ($22 million) transfer from Red Bull Salzburg in the winter. Haaland became the first player to score a hat-trick off the bench on his Bundesliga debut. Dortmund were 3-1 down in the second half when Haaland was thrown on at Augsburg in January. The 19-year-old duly bagged three goals within 23 stunning minutes and they won 5-3. He went on to score seven goals in his first three Bundesliga appearances, and finished the season with 13 in 15 matches. In all competitions Haaland has scored 16 times in 18 games for Dortmund. He also scored 28 in 22 games for Salzburg before his transfer, with 10 of his goals coming in the Champions League. – Coronavirus – History was made on March 11 when a Bundesliga match was played behind closed doors for the first time as Borussia Moenchengladbach beat near neighbours Cologne 2-1 in an empty stadium as the coronavirus outbreak spread.

Former star Tovey ditched as South Africa technical director Johannesburg (AFP) – Africa Cup of Nations-winning captain Neil Tovey will not have his contract as technical director of South Africa renewed next month amid conflicting reports about the decision. South African Football Association (Safa) spokesman Dominic Chimhavi said health was the chief reason behind letting the skipper of the 1996 Cup of Nations team go. “The main reason why the contract of Neil will not be renewed is health related. He had two huge scares (heart attacks) during his tenure and that was taken into account.” The former Kaizer Chiefs and South Africa centre-back suffered several heart attacks in early 2015 and another late the following year. However, the Business Day newspaper reported that a lack of financial support from the cash-strapped Safa restricted Tovey in his work. “Health is not the major issue — money is. Neil felt hamstrung because he lacked sufficient funds to carry out his mandate,” a top Safa official told AFP on condition of anonymity. Now 57, Tovey did not immediately comment on the decision by the national association to dump him. As technical director, Tovey was tasked with training coaches in the republic, whose national team has been a continuous source of disappointment for a decade. Bafana Bafana (The Boys) are ranked only 13th in Africa — behind many countries with far smaller populations and limited facilities. South Africa boasts more international-standard pitches in commercial capital Johannesburg alone than most African countries have. When the national team returned from apartheid-induced international isolation in 1992, they quickly made an impact. – Mandela backed Bafana – Led by Tovey, Bafana Bafana hosted and won the 1996 Cup of Nations, defeating Tunisia 2-0 in the final with Mark Williams scoring a second-half brace. Among those who watched the triumph was then President Nelson Mandela, the political prisoner-turned-international icon who met the squad frequently during the tournament. South Africa then qualified for the 1998 World Cup in France thanks to a 1-0 win over Congo Brazzaville at the same 80,000-seat Soweto stadium where they overcame the Tunisians. After a heavy loss to France in Marseille, Bafana Bafana drew with Denmark and Saudi Arabia to return home winless. The national team remained among the strongest in the continent for several years, reaching the 2002 World Cup and finished second and third in the 1998 and 2000 Cup of Nations. But 2004 marked a turning point as South Africa were eliminated after the first round of the Cup of Nations in Tunisia and have not been serious title contenders since.

Argentina’s ’86 World Cup coach Bilardo positive for coronavirus Buenos Aires (AFP) – Argentina’s 1986 World Cup winning coach Carlos Bilardo has tested positive for coronavirus but without displaying any symptoms, according to local media reports. The 82-year-old suffers from a brain disorder and lives in a nursing home where 10 other occupants have tested positive for COVID-19. He received support from Estudiantes La Plata, his former club where he played and managed. “We are in this match with you Carlos!” the side posted on twitter on Friday. Bilardo was admitted to intensive care in July 2019 with Hakim-Adams syndrome. Since his release he has resided in a nursing home. He managed the national side from 1982 to 1990, winning the World Cup in Mexico with Diego Maradona and then guiding the defending champions to the 1990 final in Italy. He is also a doctor. Argentina has recorded almost 1,200 deaths and over 55,000 cases of coronavirus. President Alberto Fernandez announced on Friday a toughening of lockdown measures in the capital Buenos Aires and its surrounding area with cases on the rise.

Brazil’s Fluminense win right not to play next to COVID-19 hospital Rio de Janeiro (AFP) – One of Brazil’s top football clubs, Fluminense, won its battle Friday not to play matches at a stadium also serving as a coronavirus hospital, which it argued was disrespectful to victims and their families. Struggling to avoid the collapse of the health system as the pandemic surges in Brazil, authorities have set up a field hospital in the parking lot at Rio de Janeiro’s iconic Maracana stadium. Paradoxically, the venue also began hosting matches again last week, after a three-month coronavirus hiatus on all professional football across South America. Fluminense’s president, Mario Bittencourt, argued that was a mistake. “I don’t think matches should be scheduled in the Maracana, next to a field hospital. It’s disrespectful,” he said. The Rio de Janeiro Football Federation ultimately relented, allowing Fluminense to play its state tournament match against Volta Redonda on Sunday in Nilton Santos Olympic stadium instead. But while Fluminense may have won that battle, it lost its war to avoid returning to play altogether. Along with fellow Rio club Botafogo, the team has fought Mayor Marcelo Crivella’s decision to authorize closed-door football matches, arguing it is putting lives at risk given that infections are still not under control in Brazil. The clubs initially won a reprieve, but a court ruled this week they must resume play this weekend. They had sought to return in July at the earliest. Brazil has the second-highest number of infections and deaths from the new coronavirus worldwide, after the United States: more than 1.2 million and 55,000, respectively.
