The German national team is rolling at the moment and two of the biggest reasons for that success have been Bayern Munich’s Jamal Musiala and Bayer Leverkusen’s Florian Wirtz.
The duo has grown close in the last few months and seems to be embracing the weight being thrust upon them to play the leading roles for the squad. How close are they getting? Well, maybe so tight that they can call each other dumb after a careless foul.
Playing on a yellow card, Wirtz picked up another one, which will see him suspended when UEFA Nations League resumes play in 2025. That foul led to this exchange between Germany’s top two players (per Sport Bild’s Tobi Altschäffl (via @iMiaSanMia):
Jamal Musiala on Florian Wirtz’s yellow card which means he’s suspended for the quarterfinals first leg: “I shouted at him!”
• What did you tell him?
Musiala: “Dumb!”
The duo should embrace this…imagine the Photoshopped movie posters for “Dumb & Dumber” with Musiala and Wirtz in those orange and power blue tuxes. Talk about gold…
