Ref Outstanding: Sandro Schaered, The Swiss Whistleblower, Back in Munich's Allianz Arena
Bayern Munich game overseen by Swiss referee for the second occasion - Bayern Munich sees repeated command by Swiss Schärer
Hey there, sports fans! Fasten your seatbelts, 'cause we've got an exciting update for you!
Tickets please, as Sandro Schaered, a Switzerland-born referee, is set to make a comeback in the Allianz Arena in Munich on Tuesday night (21:00 CET/Prime Video). You might remember this hero from the Champions League quarterfinal first leg between FC Bayern Munich and Inter Milan. But let's rewind for a minute, because this isn't just any ordinary reunion.
If you're scratching your head wondering why this referee is such a big deal, let me shed some light. You see, Schaered was the man in charge way back on December 9, 2020, when Bayern hammered Lok Moscow home—tallying a 2-0 victory, with Thomas Müller earning the start.
But that's not all—Schaered has been quite the buzz in the Champions League this season, officiating no less than three matches involving German clubs. He reffed Bayer Leverkusen in their tussle with AC Milan (1-0), RB Leipzig's encounter with Liverpool (0-1), and even had the pleasure of overseeing Borussia Dortmund's thrilling 2-1 win against Lille in the round of 16.
But hold onto your popcorn, sports enthusiasts, because this riveting tale doesn't end there. Looks like Schaered will face an interesting challenge in the form of a fellow countryman in Munich. Yann Sommer, the ex-Bayern goalkeeper, is now guarding Inter Milan's goal.
So grab a beverage, get comfortable, and don't miss the showdown between FC Bayern Munich and Inter Milan on Tuesday night at the Allianz Arena! Keep your eyes peeled for Mr. Schaered; he's the man everyone will be talking about!
