this is the w. news live from berlin german football champions fire munich fire their coach. after the club suffers their worst league defeat in more than a decade to look at the reasons behind the surprise decision. also on the program opponents and supporters of lebanon's president michel of whom staged mass rallies thousands of anti-government protesters converge on murders martyr square in beirut calling for the removal of the country's elite and end to corruption. and saudi arabia has announced it's gearing up to sell shares of aramco the state oil company

listing it on the riyadh stock exchange could make it the biggest public company in the world topping a trillion dollars in value. and in formula one lewis hamilton reigns supreme the british driver secures his 6th world championship to be just one title away from tying michael schumacher his record. and lamed welcome to the program we start with big news from the world of sports chairman champions byron munich have fired coach niko kovac the team is sitting 4th in the bundesliga despite leading byron munich to the league title and lifting the german cup last season 51 loss to frankfurt on saturday appears to have been the final straw for buyers board. mark meadows from dubious sports joins us now to tell

us more mark it couldn't have just been this 51 lost in frankfurt what else is going on here yeah there's definitely something more underlying i mean they were in the same situation last season when he 1st took over the results are very poor and people were calling for his sacking and he managed to turn it around but i think nick and i think he deja vu here we have the same problem last season ok the money's to to win the title in the german cup but is this really happening all over again and yeah it's not just the results i think it's also maybe that he doesn't get on very well with the club chairman karl has room in it was kind of been quite open about it a frostiness that he's big supporter of the club is the president only one is now he's actually stepping down in a few weeks so i think that has precipitated this really and normally a bind is when the players start to grow moan. a lot he lost his job the previous by and coaches so yeah but it is a bit of a surprise because they're doing well in europe and it's very tight at the top of

the bond as they go it's not all over they can still end up winning the title easily so it is a bit of a weird one but they got 2 big games coming up and i think that's what's going to focus the minds in the boardroom so it's massed a 10 4th place in the table is a crisis yes because as i say by many don't normally do something that is for so for them to act so hastily after 51 when there's obviously something wrong kind of behind the scenes as well i mean 51 they did lose a player after just 10 minutes they were playing with 10 men for 80 minutes so it's very hard to win a game against a team as good a friend with 10 men but 51 it's pretty bad. by its biggest if in 10 years in the league we've actually got a report now which kind of explains what's happening and what is really interesting are the couple of sound bites there from the captain manual noya and also from from the before he was being sacked and actually that quite damning. a humiliating

defeat on saturday against. frankfurt it was simply too much for a buy in munich bosses who parted ways with the coach on sunday night. until the middle of 2021. being with the. teens and after a shaky start. in his 1st season but recent weeks have seen inconsistent results and discord within the team after the frankfurt debacle. this is what has happened is no fluke if you saw the cup game in bochum last week and what has happened isn't really a big surprise to me it's going to reasonable rational but it can't just be blamed on getting a red card early in the guy. nothing worked out. so we are in a situation which we have to confront a woman joins us another we will have to analyze things and talk about it but of

course we have to change something on even crowbars himself saw the need for improvement before learning of his sacking. of videos a man lance we shouldn't be losing $51.00 we have to grasp is that with a man less it's going to be more difficult to win. something like that should never happen. now those same worries will be inherited by cobar to a successor in the hot seat at byron i and let's come back to mark meadows with us in the studio so what now takes over well hanzi flick the assistant manager is taking over for the save forseeable future and he's a very safe pair of hands he was assistant manager at germany when they won the world cup in 2014 and he's got big links to buy and he's got 2 big games coming up they play limpy our course in the champions league on wednesday if they win that game they qualify for the last 16 of the champions league they've won all their games so far in europe so it's not all been bad and then they're playing dog and in

the big game in german football next weekend so that kind of is why they've made this change i think longer term is hands if the answer is not really kind of the head coach he's always kind of worked as an assistant in recent times josie marino is available the former manchester united and real madrid coach these never worked in germany definitely won't buy munich job i think is a very ambitious guy whether is a good fit for by and by i found about that also eric 10 who is the coach of iraq's great season last season finished. the finals. so we got marriage support to tino who's the top coach they reach the champions league final but they're both under contract so it's going to be tricky for buying to get them during the season which kind of gives marino as he's available but they might just think let's give it away for a few weeks months and see how he does so regardless who's managing this team what about the scene what about the rest of the season can they salvage it yeah i mean

they're still in all competitions and yes they're full of those last 2 games but it's very tight and it's incredibly tight we've never seen a season like it so they can easily finished up an easy win the jump again and things are going really well as it is in the champions league so it's not disastrous they've just obviously looked at this the board for hang on if we let this drag on and we lose to a limp iakovos and we don't qualify for the champions league last 16 sure way and then we lose big to a big rivals dortmund next weekend we don't want that we can't take it so let's get rid and hope that we can turn the page we'll see very surprise of us i thought give him a few more weeks while an exciting season ahead of us mark meadows to his sports thanks very much for testers ever turn to lebanon streets as they continue to press for wholesale political reform the country has been swept by more than 2 weeks of demonstrations against a political class accused of corruption the prime minister stepped down this week

but protesters are demanding a complete overhaul of the political system meanwhile government supporters have also been making their voices heard. rallying around their leader thousands of protesters are pushing back against cries for president michel aoun to step down his backers say the country needs him to root out corruption and to bring economic stability. base your money in the president isn't to blame for lebannon he's not responsible for everything wrong in the country today he shouldn't step down protesters think if the president needs power the problems will be solved on the contrary 6 if that happens the crisis will worsen on the other hand there is the image that the. anti-government protesters that disagree for more than 2 weeks they've taken to the streets forcing prime minister saeed hariri to resign. not that that is i didn't want to come out here but the political elites made me do

this if they had given us our rights we wouldn't come out. more on that you know. they have a little confidence in the future accusing the government of not only corruption but also incompetence more than one quarter of people are in poverty the economy has stalled lurching from one political crisis to another the president has asked protesters for patience. we have put together a roadmap to deal with the 3 points corruption that's the economy and a civil state. they are not easy points to deal with. i'll madani. but public opposition against him bridges religious and economic divides demonstrators say no good can come to the country until the current system is out of power. was. and now some of the other stories making news around the
