Amazon to document Germany’s 2022 World Cup campaign for ‘All Or Nothing’ series

Germany

Germany are set to become the latest elite side to be under the spotlight of Amazon’s ‘All Or Nothing’ series, with the four-time winners set to have cameras following all their BTS movements during the Qatar World Cup.

The German Men’s National Team will become the latest side to feature in the cult docu-series, with a six-episode series set to follow Germany’s preparations for the 2022 Qatar World Cup later this year, as well as their progress in the tournament itself.

Reports suggest that the series will also initially cover the German’s participation at Euro 2020, where they eventually lost in the Round of 16 to host nation England – with the idea of the documentary reportedly broadcasting how the nation will be aiming to rise to prominence once more.

Both the German Football Association (DFB) and Amazon will be hoping for a better performance than the last World Cup in 2018, where the then-defending champions were knocked out in the group stages.

Prime Video has already run All or Nothing docs on leading German clubs Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, with this being the first time the national team will be under the Amazon Prime spotlight this winter.

“The Amazon team supports us intensively and offers many exclusive insights into our processes,” National coach Hansi Flick said in a statement.

“The documentary follows our goal of getting back to the top of the world and shows how hard we work to achieve it. Our biggest challenge is still to come with the World Cup. It will be challenging, emotional and hopefully successful in the end. We go all in and want to go with it make the documentary possible for the fans.”

Philip Pratt, Head of German Amazon Originals at Prime Video, added in a statement:

“Prime members can look forward to an exciting journey with the German national soccer team. Our viewers will receive unique, intimate and emotional insights while the entire team will be on the exhausting Accompany the way to the fifth star up close. The whole of Germany and we at Prime Video hope for a happy ending.”

The series is set to release in 2023 via Amazon.

Victory unites with Roasting Warehouse in culture-led partnership

The Melbourne-based anf family-owned business will join the Victory family, uniting two institutions which represent the city’s culture and identity.

A partnership with local roots

As the newest partner of Melbourne Victory, Roasting Warehouse joins forces with a vital part of the city’s sporting landscape.

The club’s Managing Director, Caroline Carnegie, outlined why the partnership bears so much value to both parties.

“We are excited to collaborate with Roasting Warehouse, a community-oriented destination for high-quality coffee, proud of its foundations in Melbourne,” said Carnegie via official media release.

“Football and coffee sit at the epicentre of Melbourne’s culture. The two go hand-in-hand, consistently at the centre of the conversation that stirs Melburnians, which is no different to the conversation sport and Melbourne Victory stir in the State.”

Indeed, this is a partnership which combines the identity, passions and culture of an entire city, therefore giving it the foundations required for long-term, mutual success.

Representing the best of Melbourne

Both Victory and Roasting Warehouse are hugely successful in their respective industries. They are institutions with community-oriented philosphies, who pride themselves on craft and quality.

“We’re incredibly proud to partner with Melbourne Victory, a club that represents the heart, passion, and ambition of Melbourne,” revealed Roasting Warehouse Head of Brand, Alexander Paraskevopoulos.

“As a Melbourne-founded, family-run business, supporting a team that means so much to the local community feels very natural for us.”

Furthermore, through their high-quality blends, Roasting Warehouse will look to prepare Victory’s players and staff for high performances on the pitch as the seasons nears completion.

But this is about far more than just fueling athletes.

This is a partnership which embodies and unites two of Melbourne’s greatest strengths and cultural markers – a connection forged from the city’s very own DNA.

Marie-Louise Eta makes history as new Union Berlin head coach

In an historic appointment, Eta will take over as head coach of Union Berlin until the end of the season.

History in the making

Previously the first female assistant coach in Bundesliga history with Union Berlin, Eta will now take the reigns of the men’s first team on an interim basis.

Currently, the club sit in 11th place in the Bundesliga table, but with only two wins so far in 2026, relegation appears an all-too-real prospect, and one which the club is desperate to avoid.

“Given the points gap in the lower half of the table, our place in the Bundesliga is not yet secure,” said Eta via official media release.

‘I am delighted that the club has entrusted me with this challenging task. One of Union’s strengths has always been, and remains, the ability to pull together in such situations.”

Eta will begin as Union’s new head coach with immediate effect, and will be in the dugout for the club’s matchup against Wolfsburg this weekend.

 

A step into an equal future

Eta’s appointment signals a major step towards a more level playing field in the football landscape.

Furthermore, Eta joins other coaches including Sabrinna Wittmann, Hannah Dingley and Corinne Diacre who, in recent years, have blazed a trail for female coaches to step into the men’s game.

Wittmann currently manages FC Ingolstadt in Germany’s third division, and was the first female head coach in Germany’s top three divisions.

In 2023, Dingley became caretaker manager of Forest Green Rovers, and thus the first woman to lead a men’s professional team in England.

Diacre, now head coach of France’s women’s national team, managed Ligue 2’s Clerment Foot between 2014 and 2017.

 

Final thoughts

The impact therefore, is that Eta’s appointment will show future generations of aspiring female coaches that men’s football is an equally viable and possible pathway as the women’s game.

The time is now to level the playing field.

And while it may be a short-term role, its effect on attitudes towards equality and fair opportunities in the game will hopefully resonate long after the season ends.
