Season 1, Episode 6: “Die Mannschaft”

The 1974 World Cup title was actually stolen from us. Because the final was not lost on the field, but here, in this swimming pool. And Theo has tracked down the person responsible. Our national penalty trauma is also being examined: with Dutch national team and Borussia Dortmund handball goalkeeper Tess Wester and German penalty professor Daniel Memmert.
