In the first half of the Bayern game against Leipzig (1:3) in the Bundesliga the fans in the south stand suddenly held up a banner: “All colors are beautiful. In Toulouse, Munich and everywhere. Respect our values ​​Mazraoui”. Translated: “All colors are beautiful. In Toulouse, Munich and everywhere. Respect our values, Mazraoui.”

What’s behind it?

It’s the next misstep by a player in Bayern’s breakdown season…

Spicy interview scene with Tuchel “Wrong question!”

The origin of the theater was an action in France: the first two leagues carried out a campaign against homophobia last weekend: Numbers and names on the jerseys should shine in rainbow colors. However, this was not well received by all players – especially in the game Toulouse against Nantes there was displeasure about the action.

A total of four players refused to wear the rainbow jersey. Toulouse defender Zakaria Aboukhlal wrote on Instagram: “Respect is a value I hold dear. This applies to others, but also to my personal beliefs. So I don’t think I’m the most suitable person to take part in this campaign.”

The post was controversial, but there was also encouragement – including from Bavaria’s Moroccan Mazraoui, who wrote to his compatriot: “God bless you brother” – garnished with two hearts.

This was not well received by the Bayern fans, who also waved a rainbow flag in addition to the banner.

Sports director Hasan Salihamidzic is clearly committed to the club’s attitude towards diversity and against homophobia: “All I know is that we all stand for it and our club stands behind it. I really didn’t get anything else, I was so focused on the game.”

In any case, Mazraoui’s rather negative attitude towards openness and diversity is not well received by Bayern fans …
