Mario Basler has not changed and has not forgotten anything. The former Bayern star treats himself to a cigarette for his free-kick goal on his comeback.
Osnabrück – Mario Basler is back – and how! The former midfield star of FC Bayern celebrated his comeback on the pitch on Tuesday and promptly scored a free kick. The 54-year-old is actually a coach at SC Türkgücü Osnabrück, now he has put on his football boots again almost twenty years after the end of his career as a professional.

“Legendary moment”: Ex-Bayern star Mario Basler makes a comeback in the district league
“A legendary moment that we can all experience together! Be there live and support our team in this epic duel. It will be an unforgettable evening full of action and emotions!” Basler’s club SC Türkgücü Osnabrück announced promisingly in the run-up to the match in the Osnabrück Season B district league against SSC Dodesheide II.
And the amateur club has not promised too much. Basler, once active for FC Bayern, Kaiserslautern and Werder Bremen, was summoned to the starting XI and seems to have forgotten nothing even in old age. As in the best of times, the former German national player grappled, grumbled, discussed and gesticulated.
Free-kick god Mario Basler takes on opponents
“Be careful not to get off!” whispered Basler loudly fupa.net towards the opposing bank. Basler, who was admired and feared as a free-kick god when he was active, sunk a stationary ball directly from the left shortly before the break and thus initiated the Osnabrück team’s race to catch up.
The guests from Dodesheide had taken a 2-0 lead early on. In the 90th minute, the home side managed the much-acclaimed 2-2 equalizer in front of a good 500 spectators. Basler, who lasted a good 70 minutes and then substituted himself, was already sitting on the bench smoking his cigarette.
“I need a cigarette”: Ex-Bayern star Mario Basler sinks a free kick during his comeback
“I need a cigarette,” the live ticker quoted him as saying when he was substituted. Due to the draw, leaders Türkgücü are now four and five points ahead of the two pursuers with three games left. Time enough, then, to see Super Mario in action again. In any case, he hasn’t lost any of his genius. Recently, Basler shot with “Kindergarten” criticism against FC Bayern. (ck)
