But the fact that his team had kindly made the points that could not taste the FC coach easy. Because knowing thumb: On Friday evening was for his FC simply left in it.
In order had shortly after 20 clock thumb for the first time in eight years to enter the lawn of the BayArena, gave an interview. When he once again point to clock 20.31 to kick-off arrived, he was greeted warmly by many Bayer fans. There was applause for the former Bayer coach, in turn zurückgrüßte audience friendly.
Daum was of course inside on fire for the Derby, but remained in the first half, outwardly quite cool. His team had the game well in hand, thumb seemed satisfied and gave his players repeatedly applauded.
That changed after no more than the stupid goals conceded to 0:1. Daum was now more often offensive actions evaporated after shaking his head.
As coach of FC Daum had previously never lost a derby against Leverkusen (three wins, four draws). This series has snapped Friday night. Since the 55-year-old was also not surprise birthday quite comforting that had organized his wife Angelica in the villa in Hahnwald for him.
Daum's friends had watched the game at his home. They received the birthday child will be nice, but it was thought still to be determined at the Derby.
