From beginning to end: Soccer team switches two coaches with opposite names
DUESSELDORF, Germany (AP) --- A German soccer club has made an eye-catching
change, firing one coach whose name means "beginning" and hiring one whose name
means "end."
Second division Fortuna Duesseldorf said Sunday it was parting company with
Markus Anfang, whose surname translates from German as "beginning" or "start",
and bringing in Alexander Ende, or "end", for the last five games of the season.
That prompted jokes on German social media and speculation about how Ende's
task will be to stop the end of Fortuna's time in the division. He takes over
with the team just one point above the relegation zone. Anfang won six of 22
games during a six-month stint in charge.
"I'm looking forward very much to this exciting challenge at Fortuna," Ende
said in a statement.
"The situation is challenging but I am absolutely convinced that together with
everyone at Fortuna we will secure our place in the league. And that is all
that matters right now."
