Dusseldorf - Oliver Bierhoff before his first difficult World Cup Mission: Every Sunday, starting the team manager to South Africa where he will search in five cities for a suitable DFB headquarters for the World Cup finals 2010th
"Meanwhile, we have a high level of requirements," said Bierhoff, who must think not only of the team and the great Betreuerstab. Training facilities, medical facilities, media, sponsors presentation, travel links - everything must be right. Ten to twelve hostels are on the sightseeing map, time is running out. For other teams look around in South Africa even though the qualification is still running more than one year. "The selection of suitable areas is rather small," said Bierhoff justified the early efforts.
In Focus: Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria and Nelspriut. In Johannesburg, take a position at a height of almost 1800 meters above sea level, a special position, which is interesting from a sports medicine point of view. But also play a role in the cost-benefit factor, and security interests.
