If you say Kahn, you also have to say "Titan" – this nickname has been inextricably linked with the former national goalkeeper at least since the 2002 World Cup. At the time, his brilliant saves played a key role in helping the German National Team reach the finals.
Up against Brazil in the final, Kahn became the tragic World Cup hero with two decisive goalkeeping mistakes.
Tragic Hero and Eternal Titan
Legendary victories and agonizing defeats have always been close together for Kahn. On the one hand, there are eight championships, the Champions League won in 2001, six DFB Cup victories and three awards as world goalkeeper.
On the other hand, however, there's the lost Champions League final in 1999, the aforementioned missed World Cup title in 2002 and the 2006 World Cup as "Number 2”.
Kahn became a "Titan" not only because of his great successes, but also because of the way he dealt with setbacks during his career and was always able to motivate himself to move forwards.
He reveals his approach in an interview:
"In sports, I have experienced many setbacks and defeats. But after a certain period of reflection and honest confrontation, there are great opportunities for further development."
And Kahn has always known how to take advantage of these opportunities.
