San Marino hits back at Mueller
SAN Marino has hit back at Thomas Mueller and accused the German striker of arrogance and disrespect after he said playing the minnows has “nothing to do with professional football.”
After Germany’s 8-0 rout on Friday of San Marino, Mueller said that playing a “team of amateurs” in the “pouring rain” left Germany’s stars exposed to injury. “This is nothing to do with professional football,” Mueller said. “Of course, it’s a highlight for San Marino to play the world champion. But these games, in such slippery conditions, leave you exposed to unnecessary risks.”
San Marino coach Pierangelo Manzaroli told Sport Mediaset: “When a small country like San Marino plays against the world champion Germany, a result like this can happen. The important thing is we should never lose respect. People have to have self-control post-match.
“In this case, that didn’t happen.”
Alan Gasperoni, reportedly a San Marino press officer, went even further and sent Mueller an angry Facebook rant listing 10 reasons why Germany’s trip to San Marino was useful.
“Dear Thomas, you’re right. There’s no point in these games. To you,” he wrote in comments picked up by Italian and German media.
“Moreover, dear Thomas, there’s no point in you coming to San Marino for a weekend that was free of Bundesliga football when you could have been snuggled up with your wife in your luxury villa.
“Or maybe get invited to a big sponsor’s event where you’d pocket thousands of euros.”
