Translation of the original German article:

FC Bayern may have to do without Jamal Musiala again for a longer period of time. The international, who was back in the starting eleven for the first time in three months, injured his left ankle in stoppage time of the first half in the Club World Cup quarter-final against Paris Saint-Germain in Atlanta on Saturday evening. The TV pictures suggested the worst: Musiala's foot was sticking out at an unnatural angle from the rest of his leg. The surrounding players had horror written all over their faces.

It was preceded by an initially seemingly harmless scene in the PSG penalty area: Michael Olise played a high pass into the penalty area on the right. As Sacha Boey, who was supposed to receive the pass, did not seem to have expected it, Musiala ran towards the ball while Willian Pacho shielded it and waited for his goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma. Donnarumma made a courageous tackle and hit Musiala full on the left leg.

The match was immediately interrupted and never restarted, referee Anthony Taylor from England sent the two teams into the dressing room at 0-0, with some PSG and Bayern professionals continuing to stand by Musiala, who was treated on the touchline, carried off on a stretcher and replaced by Serge Gnabry for the second half.

Musiala missed the final spurt of last season due to a torn muscle bundle and only made his comeback at the Club World Cup. Now the 22-year-old midfielder is facing another lengthy absence.

FCB coach Vincent Kompany had already had to make his first injury-related substitution against PSG in the 33rd minute. Right-back Josip Stanisic had hurt his hamstring and had to leave the pitch after trying to continue playing for a while. Boey eventually came on for the Croatian.

With the under 21 euros coming to a close soon, I believe it's fair to look at the players that participated in it and try to find out who might become a household name soon.

The Guardian made a solid list in my opinion. The first player on their list, Nick Woltemade, is apparently already linked with a move to Bayern Munich.

Which other players from the tournament are likely to move up to their senior teams or bigger club teams soon?

In a long awaited statement the German regulatory body (Bundeskartellamt ) Federal Cartel Office) has confirmed that all clubs will need to comply with 50+1 and that existing exemptions (Leverkusen, Wolfsburg, Leipzig) cannot stand.

In de zetelpeiling van mei blijft er sprake van een gelijkstand: VVD (30 zetels), PVV (28) en GL-PvdA (28) zijn net als vorige maand virtueel de grootste drie partijen. Hoewel de VVD op 30 virtuele zetels kan rekenen, een stijging van 2 zetels, is deze partij niet per definitie de grootste. Er moet namelijk rekening worden gehouden met onzekerheidsmarges.

It had been speculated for a while - now it's official: Erik ten Hag will follow Xabi Alonso as head coach at Bayer Leverkusen.

VfB Stuttgart win this year's DFB Pokal. The amazing run of third tier Armenia Bielefeld that led them to the final did not carry them to the title. It remains an amazing achievement nonetheless.

We love making Flammkuchen. It's easy and delicious and - most importantly - my daughter loves it.

Ingredients:

for the dough:

• 250 g flour
• 120 g very warm water
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 50 g butter
• 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

for the topping:

• 150 g creme fraiche
• 200 g thick-cut bacon
• 1 small/medium onion
• 100 g gruyère cheese (optional)
• chives to garnish

Directions:

Start with preheating the oven to its highest setting (about 500°F/250°C).

Make the dough:

In a medium/large mixing bowl stir the flour with salt. Add the olive oil, butter and very warm water (from the tap). Stir with a wooden spoon until roughly combined. Knead the dough by hand or with a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment for a couple of minutes until the dough is soft and smooth.

Wrap the dough in plastic foil and set it aside to rest for 20-30 minutes (on the counter).

Assemble the tart:

Prepare the ingredients: cut bacon into small cubes. Cut onions into thin slices and sprinkle them with a pinch of salt (they will soften and not burn in a hot oven). Add the creme fraiche into a small bowl, season it with salt and pepper, and stir until combined.

Roll out the dough very thinly into an oval or rectangular shape and place it on a baking sheet lightly greased with olive oil.

Spread the creme fraiche over the dough leaving some border. Top with bacon and onion slices (if they released some water, squeeze it out). Add the gruyère cheese on top (optional).

Bake the Flammkuchen for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Baking time may vary depending on the oven.

To celebrate not playing in Europe next season, Manchester United are now preparing to spend a quarter of the entire spending of La Liga during the last summer transfer window (mind you, Spanish clubs even ended up with a net surplus that window). It sure is fun being a strong but not top 1-2 side in Europe's non English top five leagues.

Stay classy, UEFA...

As always, UEFA can't seem to get even the simplest of things right, like... you know... counting and having a few spares just in case.

Als vader vind ik het goed dat de overheid hier regels wil opstellen. We zullen dan zien of de regels effectief zijn.

You don't see seats flying in a football stadium all that often, yet here we are. What a sad day.

With some jurisdictions categorically recommending that children under a certain age (in the case of Denmark under 13) should not have a tablet or smartphone, what is your opinion on the appropriate age/way to introduce these devices to your children's life? Do you use your own devices together with your children? If so, how and when?

While my own children are still unquestionably too young for tablets or smartphones, I'm already afraid of the social pressure that is likely to arise at an ever younger age when their friends start getting devices.
