When Asked ‘Two Athletes from Different Sports who are cross-sports equivalent to each other’- FC Bayern Munich Named Virat Kohli alongside Manuel Neuer
For Bayern Munich, the esteemed German football giants, the year has been challenging, marked by numerous managerial changes, lagging in the title race, and their Champions League campaign teetering on the brink of conclusion. Despite these setbacks, their endeavours to engage with fans globally via social media have been exceptional. In a notable recent post, they acknowledged an Indian player, paralleling their legendary goalkeeper, Manuel Neuer.
On platform X, a user posed a question to the fans: “Name 2 athletes from different sports who are cross-sports equivalents of each other.” In response to this fan question, the player stated that the football club identified Manuel Neuer and Virat Kohli as those two athletes.
Where is Virat Kohli?
While India is leading the test series against England 3-1 with one game remaining, Virat Kohli has not returned to India yet. However, Virat Kohli’s wife recently revealed through a social media post that he has become a father for the second time, with the child being named Akaay. A fan captured a photo of the player having breakfast in England.
While uncertainties loom over Virat Kohli’s participation in the fifth test against England, rumours are suggesting the player might be available for the 17th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Given that Royal Challengers Bangalore is yet to clinch the title, Virat Kohli’s absence from the tournament would be a significant setback for the team.
Bayern Munich: Can they resurrect their campaign?
This campaign is one that the club would prefer to forget in recent times. They have struggled to maintain their grip on a league they have dominated for decades. For the first time in ten years, they find themselves trailing the league leaders, Bayer Leverkusen, by eight points. They are a goal down in the two-legged fixture in the Champions League. The team is now focused on turning their campaign around.
