Suddenly, the room goes dark and your gaze is drawn upwards: to oversized monitors lined up side by side beneath the ceiling structure, forming a sort of media strip. A thrilling international match scene appears on them, accompanied by the television commentator’s original commentary:
“…Littbarski… a great cross…!”
We see Horst Hrubesch, who rises to his full height in his inimitable style, heading the ball on to Klaus Fischer, positioned centrally in front of the opposition’s goal, who sends the ball past Jean-Luc Ettori and into the net with a spectacular bicycle kick. The semi-final between Germany and France at the 1982 World Cup. The score was tied at 3–3 in extra time. A magical moment! Also on display at the German Football Museum.
Fancy some magical moments? When are you coming round?
