It is not among the German coach's habits
Germany's Hansi Flick, the Barcelona coach, found himself in an embarrassing situation 24 hours before facing Galatasaray in the second round of the league phase of the UEFA Champions League.
Spanish newspaper "AS" report that the organisers of Flick's press conference in Istanbul had to push it back by 30 minutes. The German coach turned up late.
