I think that was the Bayern CEO who entered turning on his razor and about to do something terrible to the guy but Alonso appeared from nowhere at the last minute and wrestled the Bayern CEO to the floor.... Leverkusen and their drama never ends

Y have women in a man sport giving opinions

[@Ky-tz4pf]

Football is not a “man sport” there are millions of little girls and women who watch and play the sport as much as any boy or man does myself included.

[@saidhashi2856]

Men are also in women... It goes both ways.
