“It’s a song to sing along to, even if you don’t have anyone sitting down,” explained the FC Bayern attacker after the game in Frankfurt. Already during the warm-up, Müller’s sympathy for Peter Schilling’s song from 1982 was obvious: the song was playing and Müller was singing along. “It’s fun, you can go along with it,” said Müller.
There has been a lot of hype surrounding “Major Tom” and the national team in the last few days. The starting point was the commercial by DFB supplier adidas for the new away jersey, which premiered on Tuesday evening. “Major Tom” also plays at times in the clip in question and after the win against runner-up world champion France at the weekend (2-0), a petition was launched to make the classic the German goal anthem at the European Championships.
UEFA has already put a stop to the efforts. But the DFB jumped on the hype and replaced Zombie Nation’s “Kernkraft 400” with “Major Tom” on Tuesday evening.
When substitute Thomas Müller and his teammates were successful, the song sounded after the goals from Maxi Mittelstädt and Niclas Füllkrug.
