Zwischen Nagelsmann, Brown und Thomas Müller: Die tollen Tage von zwei Oberpfälzern bei der WM in Toronto

Die Mama fuhr Nathaniel Brown früher zu Fußballplätzen der Region. Auch Christian Lichtenauer saß manchmal am Steuer. Am Samstag war er beim Spiel seines Stiefsohns in Toronto – Deutschland gegen die Elfenbeinküste. Ein starkes Erlebnis.
