Thats a handball on Bayern for me, surprised it wasnt reviewed

---

It was. Wow.

---

and intentional denying an obvious goal scoring opp - could have been a red card, too, right?

---

Yeah. After thinking about it, the law is very subjective. on it. One could argue he was in a natural position and one could argue he made himself unnaturally bigger.

Gotze brought a big bag of nothing.

Its too bad Werder Bremen is on FS+

The crowd noise is an option for each region to add or not, its not played at the stadium.

I don't like it becuase its not responsive to what is happening in the game

---

Except it is at the BD and BM game today.

---

It isn't according to Derek Rae.

---

I don't care what Derek Rae says. They change the noise when something good happens for BVB.

---

Yea, someone on the production crew is doing that, when I made my comment it wasn't doing it yet that I noticed. I thought you were saying it was being played live in stadium, which it is not.

---

That's what you get for ruining. And Derek Rae is in his office just like I am. He may be right. But he ain't there.

---

You understand what he does for a living right? He isn't speculating. He literally knows the people doing this production. What a weird thing to argue about.

---

I wasn't arguing. He's not there.

---

Are you being deliberately obtuse?

---

So you're saying Derek Rae is in Dortmund?

---

Why would he need to be there to know the facts?

I never said that. I said he was right. Not sure where your failure to communicate comes from. Let's just end this now.

Brooks starting for Wolfsburg. Hopefully Llanez gets some minutes.

Just discovered it was on TUDN, spanish language channel as well.

Wolfsburg has certainly given up on social distance celebrations.

since we were talking about it before, the piped in noise for the Dortmund match was much superior to this leverkusen match. very noticeable.

wolfsburg up 2-0... will they bring in llanez?

3-0 now.

Mon!

getting out of hand quickly

4 nil

I lost track of how this mess started... but the point of this tweet isn't that the noise is adjusted strategically or not.

In fact, it's clear from the tweet that the noise is strategic (and from countless articles online).

The point of the tweet is that certain countries' Bundesliga broadcasts are using the piped noise (like Fox) and others aren't (UK doesn't, IIRC). And in Germany, you can choose either.

The facts are this:
1) The broadcasters are producing the sound for TV only. Players don't hear the sounds.
2) The producers are changing the noise to match the game, deciding when to chant, when to cheer at shots, when to jeer at fouls, etc.

Go look at my post bear the top of page 2 of this thread. Called it.

They're piping in noise just like canned laughter from an 80s/90s sit-com.

From an enjoyment standpoint, I liked having the simulated crowd noise. Less eerie than having a completely silent arena.

I'm much more enjoying the sound of the Dusseldorf/Schalke over the RB Leipzig and Hertha Berlin.

Weston McKennie scores for Schalke!

dusseldorf needed those points bad. good game for Mckennie

This Werder Bremen / Schalke match is tough to watch. 2 bad teams and grid lines everywhere.

So far it's actually entertaining but those lines...

Took her away too soon

Sargent and McKennie both subbed off. Time to switch to Wolfsburg. Will llanez get in?

Edit- never mind/ - not in the lineup

This game's gotten out of hand

Weird.

Wonder if it's worth the booking and whatever penalty comes with getting a yellow card like that.

Don't look now but Werder Bremen is playing their best football of the year and climbing out of the relegation zone.

Schalke is forcing their way into to.

Today's match at 1:30CDT has RB Leipzig against FC Koln.

With 3 points, RB Leipzig goes to third place and inline for Champions league.

American Tyler Adams hopefully with get the start.

I don't know anything about Koln other than they're 11th. Safe from Champions league and safe from relegation.

Doh. Jinxed Tyler Adams.

hopefully adams becomes a regular starter in their 1st team soon. he's started 1 of the 3 game since covid return to play. Hope he comes in the 2nd half and kicks some ass today.

wow what a counter. How often do you see a GK get a assist?

tyler adams is in 59th minute

I think I remember he established himself as one last year, and was this year outside of injury issues. I would expect him to return to that as this season continues to progress. He also just subbed on at the 60 minute mark if anyone wants to tune in.

I think Adams is playing holding mid instead of right back today. Good for his development.

He was saying in an interview this weekend that his preferred position is as a holding midfielder

actually, maybe he's playing more of a 3rd CB in a 3-5-2 right now; not 6/holding mid

edit nevermind - he's a central midfielder - 6 role
