Bayern Extend Record Runs SPORTS SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 2014 Bayern extend record runs BERLIN: Leaders Bayern Munich extended both of their unbeaten league records with a 2-0 win at Nuremberg yesterday as the European champions remained 13 points clear in the Bundesliga. The 39-point gulf between the two teams in the league table was evident, leaving runaway leaders Bayern with 56 out of a possible 60 points this sea- son. This was Bayern’s 45th unbeaten Bundesliga match, dating back to October 2012, and their 29th unbeaten away league game to extend their records after a rare win in Nuremberg. “I quickly noticed why Bayern had only won once in six years at Nuremberg,” said Bayern coach Pep Guardiola. “Nuremberg were aggressive and played very intensively, they had two or three clear chances. “After we went 2-0 up, things got easier for us, but the pitch made things difficult and was- n’t good for our possession.” Despite the heavy surface, Bayern still enjoyed more than 60 percent possession-down from the average of 75 they are accustomed to-while defeat dropped Nuremberg back into the bottom three. “The first-half cost us a lot of strength and the belief wasn’t as great,” admitted Nuremberg coach Gertjan Verbeek. “It was almost impossible to come back after they went 2-0 up soon after the break.” Bayern needed just 17 minutes to take the lead at Nuremberg’s Grundig Stadium when Germany star Mario Goetze put David Alaba in space down the flank and the Austria left-back flicked in a cross for Mario Mandzukic to volley home.

  • BMO Management Strategies of Football Clubs in the Dutch Eredivisie
    BSc-Thesis – BMO Management strategies of football clubs in the Dutch Eredivisie Name Student: Mylan Pouwels Registration Number: 991110669120 University: Wageningen University & Research (WUR) Study: BBC (Business) Thesis Mentor: Jos Bijman Date: 1-23-2020 Chair Group: BMO Course Code: YSS-81812 Foreword From an early age I already like football. I like it to play football by myself, to watch it on television, but also to read articles about football. The opportunity to combine my love for football with a scientific research for my Bachelor Thesis, could not be better for me. During an orientating conversation about the topic for my Bachelor Thesis with my thesis mentor Jos Bijman, I mentioned that I was always interested in the management strategies of organizations. What kind of choices an organization makes, what kind of resources an organization uses, what an organization wants to achieve and its performances. Following closely this process in large organizations is something I like to do in my leisure time. My thesis mentor Jos Bijman asked for my hobbies and he mentioned that there was a possibility to combine my interests in the management strategies of organizations with my main hobby football. In this way the topic Management strategies of football clubs in the Dutch Eredivisie was created. The Bachelor Thesis Management strategies of football clubs in the Dutch Eredivisie is executed in a qualitative research, using a literature study. This Thesis is written in the context of my graduation of the study Business-and Consumer Studies (specialization Business) at the Wageningen University and Research. From October 28 2019 until January 23 I have been working on the research and writing of my Thesis.

Mutaties zijn op komst en het uitkijken naar het nieuwe trainingscomplex is begonnen. Tim Reedijk 23-06-21, 19:03 Laatste update: 19:49 Twee jaar geleden rond deze tijd werkte John van den Brom zijn eerste, drukbezochte training als eindverantwoordelijke van FC Utrecht af, in coronaloze tijden. In alle hilariteit en optimisme riep de kersverse trainer van de Utrechters een vrouw in een gele jurk het veld op om mee te doen aan een loopoefening. Vergeleken met toen was de eerste training in voorbereiding op het komende seizoen vandaag een makke bende, met slechts een plukje pers langs de zijlijn. Genoot René Hake, eindverantwoordelijke het afgelopen halfjaar, er minder van? Welnee. Hij had een grote groep spelers tot zijn beschikking, met bijvoorbeeld aanwinst Quinten Timber (20). Daarbij liepen er spelers tussen die vorig jaar verhuurd waren, zoals Nick Venema en Jonas Arweiler, en namen als Jeredy Hilterman, Chris Mamengi en Sylian Mokono die zich in de voorbereiding mogen laten zien. De nieuwe Griekse spits Anastasios Douvikas (21) sluit vrijdag aan en op zaterdag melden ook Maarten Paes en Othmane Boussaid zich. Het laatstgenoemde drietal kreeg iets langer vakantie vanwege interlandverplichtingen na het seizoen met respectievelijk Griekenland, Jong Oranje en Jong België.
