Borussia Dortmund players are known for their intensity on the pitch, but in the latest episode of “But first coffee”, fans got a taste of their lighter side. Episode 8 brought together Salih Özcan and Maximilian Beier in a hilarious debate with goalkeeping duo Gregor Kobel and Alexander Meyer, producing moments that had both the players and viewers in stitches.
The fun began with an unexpected twist: Özcan and Beier were tasked with deciding which of Kobel or Meyer would make the better striker. Naturally, Dortmund’s number one, Gregor Kobel, backed himself with confidence, but Meyer wasn’t about to go down without a fight. With jokes flying and mock arguments escalating, Beier cheekily declared, “Yes, I think Salih is less afraid of the ball,” sparking laughter across the set.
In return, the goalkeepers got their revenge, asked to pick the sport in which Özcan and Beier would struggle the most. The duo was merciless, firing playful jabs at their teammates’ supposed weaknesses. From table tennis to track racing, no sport was off the table, but the loudest laughs came when darts entered the conversation. Suddenly, what started as light teasing turned into a spirited debate over precision, technique, and whether Özcan’s competitive streak would actually help or hinder him.
What stood out most, however, was the chemistry between the players. These weren’t just teammates going through the motions for the cameras—they were friends enjoying each other’s company, showcasing the strong sense of unity running through the Dortmund squad. The easy banter, the quick comebacks, and the genuine laughter gave fans a rare glimpse of their heroes away from the high-pressure environment of matchdays.
Episodes like this underline why Dortmund is more than just a football club—it’s a community. The “But first coffee” series, powered by Melitta, has become a fan favorite because it shows the personalities behind the jerseys. Özcan’s sharp wit, Beier’s cheeky charm, and the goalkeepers’ competitive edge turned Episode 8 into one of the most entertaining yet.
For the fans, it was another reminder that while trophies and titles matter, the spirit of camaraderie is what truly makes BVB special.
