Four minutes of pure joy and entertainment that surely brought smiles to the faces of Bayern fans and even neutral spectators!
After Bayern Munich’s 3-0 win over Mainz, Sky reporter Michael Leopold invited Serge Gnabry for a post-match interview on the pitch.
Gnabry appeared in high spirits and initially answered questions professionally: “We can be satisfied. We controlled most of the game, though we lost possession frequently in the first 15 minutes.”
However, things took a funny turn when Thomas Muller suddenly joined the conversation.

Muller’s Joke: “Where’s the Hat?”

Thomas Muller didn’t miss the chance to jump into the interview. Given that this match marked Muller’s 500th Bundesliga appearance, Leopold congratulated him: “We take our hats off—500 Bundesliga games.”
Muller playfully responded with a wide grin: “Where’s the hat? Oh, it was just a metaphor.”

Though reaching 500 games wasn’t particularly significant for Bayern’s icon.
He said: “I must say, these milestones are always the same. The older you get, the more numbers like these come up. People always look for numbers to celebrate.”
Still, there was a pleasant aspect for him: “What was nice was that the fans stood up and applauded. But the number itself isn’t important—what can I say?”

Muller then joked with Leopold:
“How many games have you reported on? Have you ever been applauded?”
Leopold jokingly replied that he had received “the occasional small applause.”
This response led to another playful moment: Gnabry and Muller put their microphones down and clapped loudly together, making Leopold burst into laughter.

The mood then turned slightly more serious. Leopold asked: Can Bayern Munich secure the Bundesliga title next week in Leipzig? Muller, surprisingly, gave a clear answer this time: “Yes! My answer is yes. This win was very important.”
