Mario Basler reacted to the scandal about Antonio Rüdiger with drastic words. In his opinion, national coach Julian Nagelsmann must now show clear edge and draw consequences. Other experts see it similarly.
“I think he shot himself completely,” said Basler on Sunday at RTL and added: “He exaggerated. He was completely freaked out. He made a neckline sign three weeks ago. For me, it is no longer portable and no longer portable for the national team. The DFB stands for tolerance. Rüdiger is a player who is not for the first time.”

Rüdiger? “They have to throw it out”
A few weeks ago, Rüdiger was punished for his questionable gesture after the penalty shootout against Atlético. Now the defender threw an object shortly before the extension ended, which apparently was not an ice cream bag, but a tape, on referee Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea and followed the desert.
“He used words that cannot be said on television and in public,” continued Basler, who therefore called for clear measures from the German Football Association (DFB). The DFB, (Julian; note of the editor ) Nagelsmann, the president (Bernd Neuendorf; editor’s editor ) must react. They have to throw it out. “With this opinion, the ex-professional is not alone.
Hamann also calls for consequences
Dietmar Hamann also hit a similar notch on Sunday. “I think that the DFB should suspend it. I would not invite him to the Nations League final tournament and would leave him out for the two games,” emphasized the TV expert in the Doppelpass steel plant on Sport1 .
Let’s dance juror Joachim Llambi found also clear words. “At night, which will be remembered by many football fans, the defender exceeded a border that should not be tolerated in professional sports – and especially in football,” he wrote on Instagram and followed.
“So you could set a sign”
“Even less, the national team – as a figurehead of German football – can afford to nominate players who lose all controls in moments of disappointment,” said Llambi and asked Nagelsmann to “take clear consequences.” However, he does not believe in an exit, “because you need it.”
“Germany does not have that many good central defenders again,” said Llambi. Not to nominate Rüdiger for the upcoming Nation League games would be an option for him. “This could make a sign” that you do not accept such behavior.
Rüdiger has now spoken out on social media and showed remorse. “There is no excuse for my behavior last night. I’m very sorry,” he wrote. Born in Berlin, there is now a long lock.
