Viggósdóttir leading Bayern to new home
Unterhaching will welcome visitors from the world of European football on Tuesday evening as Manchester City come to town and the Champions League makes its debut here. And for FC Bayern Women, it’s...
Viggósdóttir, captain of FC Bayern Women, is leading the team to a new home in Unterhaching, Munich, for their upcoming Champions League match against Manchester City. This marks the beginning of a new chapter in women's football for Bayern. Viggósdóttir, Iceland's most-capped player, sees this as an opportunity to create a lasting bond between the team, fans, and club.
She emphasizes that a sense of home in football is built through repetition, people, and memories, and that the feeling of being at home cannot be established overnight. Her leadership style focuses on providing calm and strength to the team, rather than being a show-off. Viggósdóttir remains open to new ideas and continues to strive for improvement, despite her vast experience.
She views investing in future players as the real significance of Bayern's project. Manchester City, Bayern's first Champions League opponents, present a challenging task due to their similar playing styles and tendency to move the ball around. Viggósdóttir is looking forward to the opportunity to face the English champions and lead her team in their first-ever competitive fixture at their new home ground.
