Toni Kroos celebrates tipsy grandpa in posh hotel
Real Madrid win their Champions League away match at 1. FC Union after Toni Kroos comes on as a substitute. The evening in Berlin is a very special one for the German midfielder: Grandpa Kroos is in the stadium with him. The 33-year-old describes very special memories on Instagram.
Real Madrid completed a flawless Champions League group stage with an away win at 1. FC Union in Berlin's Olympiastadion. Six games, six wins, 18 points - that's as good as it gets. For Toni Kroos, the midfield strategist and five-time CL winner, the trip to the German capital is obviously a great success far beyond the sporting side of things. This is shown by the detailed text that the 33-year-old wrote on his latest Instagram post. The picture shows Kroos with his grandpa: "The true legend. Grandpa - 87 years old."
According to Kroos, he went home today, Wednesday, "happy because he won't forget those three days". And the grandson recounts these three days so that his 43.7 million followers can share in this happiness. On Sunday, grandpa Kroos was asked if he would like to come to the Madrid side's Champions League game with the Iron. "Of course," was the answer, which is why the pensioner got into his car on Monday and drove to Berlin. "Thank God he didn't do it himself," wrote Toni Kroos, adding a smiling smiley face.
On Monday evening, the three of them recorded a new episode of the podcast "Einfach mal Luppen", which Toni runs together with his younger brother Felix Kroos. Grandpa Kroos is a regular topic of conversation and enjoys great popularity among fans as the speaker of the sections and the podcast title. In the current episode, the siblings are joined by "straight as a die and in top shape, in the Real home shirt from 2022 and with a mischievous smile: Grandpa Kroos", according to the description.
Incidentally, Grandpa Kroos was accommodated in a five-star luxury hotel on Potsdamer Platz. "In keeping with his status", as the grandson writes. Although the grandfather would allegedly have accepted a broom cupboard as a place to stay.
Another vodka and orange juice at 2 a.m.
On Tuesday, grandpa Kroos went "to the sports field" to watch Union against Real. The Madrilenians won 3:2, "that was clear". Toni Kroos enters the game at 0:1 in the second half. "You turned it around," is the grandfatherly verdict, which the grandson certainly appreciates: "It's just MY grandpa." The analysis was of course "sober": "Based on his conclusion - not on his condition". After the game, the 87-year-old waited at the hotel bar to have a chat. And "to order another vodka and orange juice at around 2 a.m.".
The comments start pouring in under the Instagram post: Felix Kroos simply sends hearts, fellow world champion Sami Khedira and TV presenter Joko Winterscheidt do the same, former ski star Felix Neureuther also expresses his enthusiasm. Even Robin Knoche, central defender of the beaten 1. FC Union, can forget for a moment the disappointment of being knocked out of the Champions League and missing out on Europa League qualification by finishing bottom of the group. With a smiley face crying tears of laughter: "World class."
