🤯 What's going on here? Icon League take on Baller League for €500,000
It could really come down to a showdown between the small-field league winners in Germany. These have come to an end in recent weeks and each produced a winner. The Instagram page "sweatyg0al" started a survey a day ago, asking who of the two winners would win in a direct duel. So: Streets United from the Baller League against Berlin City, the winner of the Icon League. This led to teasing in the comments. Julian Schieber, the coach who won the Baller League with Streets United, commented that three players from Streets United would beat four from Berlin City. Elias Nerlich promptly responded with an offer: "Seriously: let's bet €100,000 that 3 players from Streets won't beat 4 from Berlin City, the winning team gets the money 🙌🏽 or rather back down?" The CEO of the Baller League, Felix Starck, then made another offer. Both teams play with a full team for €500,000. However, it remains questionable whether the two teams will actually compete against each other, as well as the question of where the €500,000 is supposed to come from. What do you think, who would prevail in a direct duel? This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
