This Tuesday, Germany is in mourning. The sole scorer in the 1990 World Cup final, Andreas Brehme was the one who allowed the Mannschaft to achieve a third star in the competition. Victim of a heart attack last night, the former defensive midfielder died at the age of 63.
A wave of tributes and support followed. Bremer, central defender of Juventus Turin, published a moving message on his social networks. “Tu was my father’s idol who wanted to give me your name. For me, you will always remain an example of sportsmanship. Goodbye Andy.» As a reminder, his first name comes from his father’s admiration for the former German player.
