Overview
- Sky’s “Rudi Völler – Es gibt nur einen” held its Germany premiere at Frankfurt’s Gibson Club with Völler, his family, and a host of football figures in attendance, including Julian Nagelsmann, Lothar Matthäus, Michael Ballack, and Otto Rehhagel.
- The documentary will be available to stream on Sky and WOW starting October 3.
- The screening briefly paused when a fire alarm sounded, which the event host later attributed to kitchen fumes, before the film resumed within about a minute.
- The production mixes biographical and sporting material, showing Völler revisiting formative places such as Hanau and Rome and featuring family moments and longtime companions like Marius Müller‑Westernhagen.
- New on-camera remarks include Völler’s admission that he likely had a wheat beer before his famous “Waldi” outburst and his view that a VAR review would have complicated the 1990 World Cup penalty.
