The Irrepressible Will to Win at FC Bayern: A Tribute to Oliver Kahn

At FC Bayern, titles count – nothing else! Whether it’s football or basketball!

One person who always represented the Munich team’s irrepressible will to win: goalkeeping legend Oliver Kahn (54). The former keeper’s saying is still legendary: “Onward, always onward.”

Flashback: May 19, 2001: FC Bayern needs one more point from Hamburger SV to win the German championship. It is the 90th minute, the score is 0:0. FC Bayern can hardly be denied the title. But then Sergej Barbarez heads the ball unstoppably into the net to give Hamburg the lead. Bayern sink to the ground, no one believes in winning the title anymore.

But Kahn takes everyone by the horns of honor: “Never give up! Always keep going! Always keep going! Always keep going!” In the end, Patrik Andersson makes it 1:1 in the fourth minute of injury time – Bayern win the title.

Always wanting to win, always having the ambition to be number one, never giving up – Oliver Kahn embodied this like no other, collecting eight championship titles in 14 years at Bayern.

Bonga like Kahn

Isaac Bonga (24) is leading the way in the basketball team. The world champion is one of the absolute top performers, no matter what position he plays. He is the all-rounder in the team and has the Bayern gene in him!

Because: Even after the opening victory in Game 1 of the playoff semi-final against the Würzburg Baskets (91:76), Bonga is not satisfied – although Bayern controlled the game from the first second and dominated the opponent in all areas.

But the slight slump in the second half, when the underdog came within eleven points of the Stars, does not suit Bonga.

“We took our foot off the gas in the second half. That can’t happen. Keep going. Always keep going. We have to have the killer instinct. And that for 40 minutes,” he ranted in Kahn style.

For Bonga, one thing is clear: “We have high, very high standards here. We are never really satisfied. We have a higher goal here in Munich. We still have to improve. Be even more confident, there is still room for improvement.”

Clear message to Würzburg.

Already on Friday (8.30 p.m., live at Dyn/ADVERTISEMENT) the second playoff semi-final game against Würzburg Baskets in the best-of-five series will take place at the BMW Park in Munich.

According to Bonga, the matter is clear: “If we pull through and everyone sticks to the rules, especially in defense, then it will be very difficult for any opponent to win against us.”

With a win, Bayern have match point in game 3 – and have one foot in the final.
