Through that was a moments where you just. You just cant stay cool and. Marriage for all is the message on their wedding cake and finally now for bodo and its a dream thats become a reality. Im joined now in the studio by Rebecca Ritter is here file back report record you witnessed history in the making today in germany what i did feel like to be in that room. It was great everything you know i felt really fortunate to be watching history in the making and the room was filled with really excited papal everyone was there they were relieved that this was finally happening in germany and. There was a lot of excitement in the room but i have to say that apart from the press scrum which of course do you define it from the sort of a regular. Registry Office Wedding going to say. It was for all intents and purposes like any other registry Office Wedding you know even if this is it was nice yeah i mean it was it was it was quite traditional in the wedding march played as the boys came down the aisle and you know what the celebrant had to say was more or less in keeping with heterosexual ceremonies so you know i think the hope is that this will just become a normal part of life and you talk to both a and his partner how important was it for them after thirty eight years to actually be married really important you know they theyve been gay activists for a really long time in the very active in the community and they wanted to get married so there was a personal element there was also sort of an activist element a sort of political element for them it was more about symbolism then the sort of extension of rights that theyll now get but it was a very symbolic thing and because theyve been fighting for it for the community for so long you know i think it was a really important day and do people see it as full equality in our is there still a ways to go. I think in terms of gay rights the community see it as germany catching up with a lot of other western democracies that have already allowed gay marriage for some time particularly a lot of European Countries i think many in the Community Felt you know germany just wasnt wasnt in line with those countries. But a lot of people i spoke to said there was still a ways to go particularly in the Transgender Community and in things like that you know that theyre not all the way there but this is a big step in the right direction big step in the right direction one you were able to be in the room for Rebecca Ritters thanks for being with us today.

Match day seven is in the books three teams entered undefeated put not all of them left that way theres lots to discuss in our sunday chat who should be the boss and fire is usually an obvious mom distracted that in more joining me in studio four a man of many hairstyles with these days keep the conservative for a vote as a good player michelle didnt see. Our very own nick mckim oclock lets set the table for whats to come. Byron munich caretaker coach willy said you all since hes got a game plan for success its put to the test with the defending champs coming to berlin to face canada and struggling side freiburg welcome hoffenheim more still unbeaten in the league but trying to balance back from a european defeat. Im Chris Harrington thanks for joining us byron munichs desire to defend their point is that a crown could be in some jeopardy the last five years they were a supreme but now their point of view on the table has changed looking up to teams rather than down and im sure youre aware Carlo Ancelotti got fired and byron brass have let assistant will he said you all feel in this caretaker coach as the squad travelled here to play here to berlin had to have been a middle of the road team thus far one thing going for them though is they have yet to lose at home. The big guns are back and robin Thomas Miller front reburied jerome saying and mats hummels were on the pitch right from the start from the vine fans point of view when he said you know has corrected his previous ss mistake his own point of view was somewhat blocked leaving the interim coach almost unable to see the consequences of his own rotation balloting to homos by and in front after ten minutes a strong start for sanyo but hes bosses werent quite convinced the team was still looking less than certain after eighty minutes terry darr went down in the box after a challenge from having martinez. But the video referee dashed hopes and saved by an skins. The guests went into the break in front. Sanyo seemed to have woken his stars up in the changing room and never made it to neil almost immediately after half time after he held off nicklaus stock the game looked to be decided but had has gained he had a good she danced past both saying then passed what was and made it impossible for andre duda to miss. Just five minutes later this free kick from the impact it had went straight past aliso and landed at the feet of a grateful salomon kalou. At the dish on the islands and. Were all very disappointed and frustrated that its the second time in a row that we havent been able to win after being two nil up and seek to end its opening for by and things got even worse when front rebury had to be taken off with a knee injury he could be out for a long time. The pressure is on the bye and buses to speed up their search for angelo tees permanent replacement. Now stylista. Match day seven chat with my two sunday guests. Nick mckenna kleinmichel ill start with you we just saw a buyer give up a two goal lead in a matter of minutes did really well just prove he can handle the responsibility as byron coach i dont think so because if youre effort to no lead you have to do thumping better than this in a second half full full of the team today but for sure i dont think so that the police on the oil can handle the situation in this club you think he can be calmed he cannot you cannot sell him that is a little quick to pull the trigger no one match if you give them another shot or now like illegal to say its just only one game so they are looking forward to next two weeks to find a new one so and i prefer fun gal as the new coach but lets see what in this weeks next days are coming up over and over to you nick given you were at the match what your take was watching sanya on the sidelines of the man has no presence yes i mean its right hes an f one game apparently but it could be longer if they dont find the right replacement thats so then he has to be able to be effective and thats where he wasnt today has no presence and thats whats lacking this is a team which needs to be kicked up the backside is far too much player power and they need a coach on the sideline who tells them what to do and thats like which i dont think samuel can do ok now lets address the elephant in the room fires next coach the rumors weve been hearing michel former Thomas Dougal is rumored to have met with byron brass should they give too cool a shot and if the season why not the c. S. Experience to to work with experienced players and this is with with his experience very important in this situation and here they are some some of the other names in the spot but i prefer more like what i said fungal first and after that too will talk a little and speaking of too cool is staying with dormant mc are they destined to return to two thousand and eleven twelve glory and win the league i mean i think we all know whats in the bonus they get the bonus they get by and lee and if theyre not doing well then another side has a chance to win its last. Happen obviously was two thousand and twelve so yes the women are in with a shout but we still got twenty four seven twenty seven masses still to go along in half in the meantime so theres definitely in the drive a season is their game their title to lose ok all right well put well put now before we continue the chat lets move on to some other results from sunday three but as the good teams were undefeated going into mass day seven hof and i being one of them their opponent freiburg occupy the opposite end of the table the match on paper has the appearance of a cakewalk victory for you leonardos modern Hoffenheim Freiburg still looking for their first win this season surely surely wont disrupt the order of the league by of setting the undefeated or will the. Christian strides freiburg seemed to stick to the script just fourteen minutes in the very conceded as hoffenheim as nineteen year old robin hock schooled on his bundesliga debut to give his side the lead. But just one minute later fly book hit back to flow again leaderless no. Two minutes passed before they struck again this time through china so you can choose his first full fry book two one was hoffenheim got close to telling the schools in the second hof as phillip ox unleashed this cracka saved by alex on the small town in spectacular fashion. Just before the ninety minute mark stencil extended fly books lead to three one. At the other end flyable defend the union schuster was so keen to get in on the action that he put one into his own net nonetheless hoffenheim lose that first game meaning freiburg grab a first win. And the ball stops rolling with rb life sick heading out to cologne peter stow the side has been experiencing a serious cold deficiency this season with only one goal in six games leipsic on the other hand just needed half an hour to get off the mark as lucas costa maya put the visitors in front beating team on with this effort. In the second half use of pole city doubled their lead with a fantastic header cologne. Had many chances but only converted one is osaka grabbed a consolation in the eighty second minute the billy goats are still searching for a first win. But the good news is at least double their Office Production and now have two goals moving to the match day seven conversation he continues michel hoffenheim defeated by freiburg not the best result for you and i was mine and company have they just had a rough patch right now it seems like yes but fragile did it well and i want. With three goals i dont know why you. Playing games like death right now i think they have to be more focused. On the leak not only because they lost just only the International Games and this is the big problem at the moment for them ok nick over to you how does hoffenheim concede three goes to a side that only made these two goals in six outings is actually receive is easy its because of the european games hoffenheim our side which im not used to playing this many games in succession this that if theyre playing every three to four games this is a club which is in European Competition for the first time in its history and doesnt necessarily have Europa League champions the caliber of players to make up for that there are of course injuries in the club which make this whole situation somewhat difficult but because hoffenheim seem to be tired theyre lacking in ideas and theyre lacking organization that theyre just not coming to terms of the fact that they have to be on the ball every three days and thats their problem thats why today they conceded three goals and what you said the most important thing is the injuries of important players so if you dont have to play or so you have to switch all the time syria youre starting lineup and im expecting to see also i mean he hasnt been featured either you know it is a bit disturbing and a shock when you actually do lose you know to a fiberglass stain with not was modern hoffenheim its no secret that thirty year old has been late to buy or is this distracting the youngster. Its i think not as much as one of the few coaches in the league who so down to earth is not going to allow interest from by me to focus on anything else than hoffenheim i think hes very much in love with his job that although if buying came calling he said previously that he would be very happy a by and and so in the future i can see it happening but im relatively sure that theres a guy he is is just going to focus on health and to succeed off and hes brought them out of the relegation zone he got them into a European Competition and now he needs to prove that he can get this team to actually win again and while theyre playing so many games in quick succession ok really quickly and hes using young Young Players from a second team from under one thousand nine hundred and this is very very important and thats why he makes him so special ok are you know thank you both for your input time to take a look at the table guys at the top byron hurdle overhaul five his second following their draw with both of charlie dortmund by five points though down at the bottom take a look five teams have seven points looks like a relegation battle in the works. Now before we leave you michel as a former player i have to ask you could you have played for a coach younger than you are i dont think so because i was a very complicated time to back days and. I think we need a many many many meetings
