World’s Biggest Football Fan & Lothar Matthäus. A Priceless Surprise.

Uwe Bindel is no ordinary football fan. He has gone to jaw-dropping lengths to support his beloved FC Bayern Münich: from defying the Stasi as a teenager in communist East Berlin, to choosing a UEFA Champions League match over his 20th wedding anniversary holiday.
Uwe believed he was taking part in a documentary on ‘Über-fans’, but little did he know he was about to be surprised by his idol, Bayern Munich midfield legend & Germany’s most capped player of all time Lothar Matthäus.
To celebrate their sponsorship of the UEFA Champions League in advance of the 2015 Final in Berlin, MasterCard arranged this Priceless Surprise to thank the passion of football fans …but also the fans behind those fans.

A real football fan, not these "Fans" who sit in a corporate box and couldn't care about the game but instead are there to drink champagne, enjoy the game Uwe.

[@BrynHarding]

This was so nice to watch, the genuine excitement on his face was so special.
