Te āhua i riro ai a Beckenbauer hei roro, hei ngākau nui, hei tirohanga hoki mō Bayern Munich

Ko te Rāpare te 22 o Mei, 2008, i ngā hāora iti o te ata, i te wāhi VIP i te papa tākaro Luzhniki o Moscow, i muri tata mai i te wikitoria o Manchester United i te UEFA Champions League mā te whiunga whiu. Kei te tū ahau me te kape hou oNgā ToaI tōku ringa, e ngana ana ki te whakakaha i te maia ki te tono ki a Franz Beckenbauer, e kōrero nui ana i tētahi tēpu tata, kia hainatia te uhi.

I muri i ētahi meneti, ka noho marino, ā, i te hopukina o te wā, ka whakapāha ahau mō te whakararuraru, ka tono hoki mō te waitohu a Beckenbauer. "Ae rā," ka pōkaikaha ia, me te tango mārire i te pene me te maheni i tukuna mai. I a ia e waitohu ana, ka pātai atu ahau ki a ia he aha tana whakaaro mō te kēmu. Ka mutu tana kōrero, kātahi ka pēhi i tōna ringa matau ki te whakaatu i te tawhiti iti o te wikitoria o United.

I taua wā, he tino poto noa iho te āhua o te mahi a te tohunga. Nō muri mai, ka mōhio ahau kua noho a Beckenbauer i roto i aua rohe mō te nuinga o tana mahi.

Nā te haki o te kaitiaki rārangi i whakangaro i ana tumanako kia toa i te Ipu o te Ao i Wembley i te tau 1966. E whā tau i muri mai, ahakoa i noho tonu ia i runga i te papa me tōna ringa kua whati i roto i te whitiki, i hinga tonu a Tiamana ki te Hauāuru i te whiringa toa nui rawa atu o te Ipu o te Ao o ngā wā katoa, mā te whāinga kotahi i roto i ngā whitu, ki Itari.

Kāore rawa e taea i tēnei rā, engari ko te whakaahua rongonui o ia me tōna ringa e here ana i tōna uma – kua whati tōna wheua tuarā – he tohu rongonui tēnei kei roto i a Beckenbauer te ngākau nui i muri i tōna huatau.

Ahakoa i te tau 1974, te tau i toa ai ia i te Ipu o Ūropi me te Ipu o te Ao, kāore i te noa ngā angitu a Beckenbauer. Ki a Atletico Madrid, kotahi meneti te roa o te hinganga o Bayern i mua i te whiwhinga a Georg Schwarzenbeck i te ōrite – ā, i whakaritea he kēmu anō i toa ai te Roten 4-0.

I te whiringa toa o te Ipu o te Ao, e 20 meneti noa iho te roa o te takaro a te kapa a Beckenbauer, nā te whiunga a Johan Neeskens i arahi ai te kapa Oranje. Mēnā he aro nui ake tā te kapa Tatimana, kua taea te hiri i te hua i mua i te whakatairite a Paul Breitner i te whiunga i te meneti 25. Ahakoa he kaiwhakahaere ia, ko te koretake o Ingarangi i te whiunga i Turin te take i toa ai te kapa i te Ipu o te Ao i te tau 1990.

Nā ngā huringa o te ao kua whakararuraru, kua whakapataritari rānei i te tini o ngā kaitākaro whutupaoro, heoi, i te aroaro o ngā māhanga tinihanga a Kipling mō te wikitoria me te aituā, he mea whakamiharo tonu te marino o Beckenbauer. Tae noa ki a Brian Clough i kōrero mōna: "I kite ahau i a Franz Beckenbauer e tomo ana ki tētahi wharekai, ā, i pērā tana mahi i tana tākaro whutupaoro: me te karaehe me te mana."

Ko tētahi huarahi ki te titiro ki te hītori o te whutupaoro he pakanga tonu, kāore e taea te whakatau mō te mana me te awe i waenga i ngā kaitākaro me ngā kaiako. Mai i te tekau tau atu i 1930, ko ngā kaiako tonu te rangatira, engari ko Beckenbauer tētahi o te hunga torutoru kua tino whakarerekē i te āhua o te tākaro.

Ahakoa kāore ia i tino pai ki te noho i roto i te whare herehere – i whakaae ia ki te whakangungu i Tiamana ki te Hauāuru, i a Marseille me Bayern nā te mea i hiahia ia ki te āwhina i ngā umanga e arohaina ana e ia – i tere tonu tana whakaatu he kaiako mohio ia i runga i te papa tākaro.

I te tau 1967, i toa a Bayern i tā rātou tohu tuatahi mō te whakataetae Pākehā, arā, te Cup Winners' Cup. I tino ahu whakamua te kapa Roten – i te wā i whakatūria ai te Bundesliga i te tau 1963, kāore i tino hirahira rātou kia karangatia kia uru atu – engari i kite a Beckenbauer me huri te kapa. I raro i tā rātou kaiako matakite a Zlatko Cajkovski, he tino mangere rawa a Bayern. Mēnā i hiahia rātou ki te toa i te Bundesliga – ā, me whai wāhi ki te Ipu Pākehā – me kaha ake tā rātou mahi.

Kāore tēnei i tupu i raro i te mana o te Yugoslav, i wehe atu i te karapu i te tau i muri mai. I waenganui i te tau 1974 me te tau 1976, ko Bayern te tīma tuatoru i toa i ngā Ipu Pākehā e toru karapīpiti. Ahakoa i tutuki te toru o ngā taitara a Roten i raro i te mana whakahaere a Dettmar Cramer rāua ko Udo Lattek, ka taea e koe te kī ko Beckenbauer, te kaiwhakahaere o te tākaro hei kaihoroi, te kaihoahoa tūturu o taua wā koura.

Nā te nui o te mana o Beckenbauer hei kaitākaro libero, i noho tonu te whutupaoro Tiamana hei pononga rautaki mā tana toa rongonui, ahakoa i muri i tana wehenga atu i te tau 1983. Tae noa ki te tau 1996, i te wā i toa ai a Tiamana i te kapa Pākehā, ko te kaitākaro tino whai mana ko te kaitākaro wīra a Matthias Sammer. Tae noa ki te wā i riro ai i a Rudi Voller te tūranga, whai muri i te whakataetae kino o te Euro 2000, ka mutu te mahi a te Mannschaft i te tinihanga rautaki – i roto i ngā kupu Tiamana – ā, ka whakarērea te kaitākaro wīra.

I a ia e tamariki ana, he tino kaitākaro mohio a Beckenbauer nā Giacinto Facchetti, ko ia pea te kaitākaro whakaeke-tuara nui rawa atu o te ao i ngā tau 1960. E ai ki tā Brian Glanville i roto i tana pukapukaKaitiakihe panui mate mō te whakapakoko Itari, "I a ia e mātakitaki ana i ngā whakaeke whakamiharo a Facchetti mai i te taha maui, me ana whiunga waewae matau, ka pātai a Beckenbauer ki a ia anō he aha ia, hei libero me hei kaihoroi, kāore e tika kia whakaeke mai i tētahi tūranga pokapū. I pērā ia, ā, i whānau mai te whutupaoro katoa ki Bayern Munich."

He tautohenga te kōrero whakamutunga a Glanville. Kāore anō a Beckenbauer kia kī i ēnei kōrero nunui mōna ake. Heoi, i a ia e whakaaro nui ana mō te kēmu, he tirohanga whakamere tāna mō te whutupaoro katoa, i tana kīnga i mua: "Nui atu te ohorere i te mea i puta mai i tētahi tikanga makutu. I mawhiti te kapa Hōrana mō te wā roa nā te mea kāore i taea e te kapa hoariri te whakatau he aha ngā rautaki e pā ana ki a rātou. Kāore he rautaki, he kaitākaro tino pai noa iho me te pōro."

Arā, i roto i te tautohetohe e pā ana ki te awe o ngā kaiako me ngā kaitākaro ki te whanaketanga o te kēmu, e whakapono ana a Beckenbauer, ahakoa ngā whakaaro o te kura hītori whutupaoro hipster, he nui ake te nama o te whutupaoro katoa ki a Johan Cruyff i a Rinus Michels.

I kī a Osvaldo Ardiles ko te kaitākaro whutupaoro tino rongonui o Tiamana he kaiārahi i takaro whutupaoro tino rawe. Ko ngā rā kororia o Beckenbauer he whakamaharatanga whakahirahira mō tētahi wā i kore ai ngā kaiako e noho hei kaiwhakahaere iti, ā, i taea hoki e ngā kaitākaro te noho hei kaiārahi.

Ehara i te mea i tino whakapono te katoa ki tana momo tākaro. I roto i ngā wā e rua i New York Cosmos, he tino hinengaro rawa tana tākaro, ā, i amuamu tētahi o ngā kaiwhakahaere ki tētahi minita: "Mea atu ki te Kraut kia tū mai i mua – kāore mātou e utu miriona mō tētahi tangata hei noho hei parepare."

Hei whakamutunga, ka tūtohu mātou i ngā hua e pā ana ki te whutupaoro mai i tā mātou kamupene.
