Eupen, 31st March 2018<\/p>\n

In the evening we are invited to a game of the KAS Eupen. Before the game – a header by the team captains! <\/p>\n

Next round of our media presence – the local TV, radio, press, and our film team are there.<\/p>\n

Our first live radioshow<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Eupen1\" <\/a> <\/div> <\/div>
\"Eupen3\" <\/a> <\/div>

Benni Linse is quite nervous. He gives an interview about Spirit of Football and the Ball Journey. Martin and I accompany him. I film this exciting moment and Martin takes pictures.<\/p>\n

BLinse on air<\/strong><\/p>\n

The guys on the field are a bit lame, in my expert opinion. SUPER Fairplay!<\/p>\n

Which is why the radio commentator passes the ball on to us and we become part of the game! Oh dear, we’re live on air! Heart misses a beat!! I say to myself “Keep calm, breathe deep, we’ll make it! <\/p>\n

LOVE FOR FOOTBALL KNOWS NO BOUND(ARIES)
\nEupen, 31st March 2018<\/p>\n

Interview with the cool and friendly radio presenter Christophe Ramjoie about the Spirit of Football…<\/p>\n

What is the Spirit of Football for me?<\/p>\n

On the one hand, for me as a football reporter it means traveling through Belgium or Germany every weekend. Getting to know nice people, colleagues, having fun with them, discussing, swearing, dreaming. <\/em>Watching beautiful sport, of course.\u00a0<\/em>International and herein this corner of the world, in Easstern Belgium, Germany, Holland. <\/em><\/p>\n

We speak European here, anyway.<\/strong><\/em>
\nThere aren’t any borders here, really.<\/em><\/strong>
\nAnd that to me is a certain Spirit, which I can live here.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I myself am German, work for a Belgian radio station and comment the games of the AS Eupen. Just now I had to comment on Alemannia Aachen, amateur football, for another station.<\/em><\/p>\n

Yes, I love it. No matter in which country you are, as soon as there is talk of football, you have a common subject – you get to know people, can discuss with them.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

That to me is football! That is the Spirit, which is what football is about”.<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
