Gerd Mueller - legend in German football (International career & personal life)

Gerd Mueller in the German national team made his debut on October 12, 1966. He helped the team win the 1974 World Cup, scoring the winning goal in the final match. He also won the national team's European Championship in 1972 and third place in the World Championship in 1970. He was the best scorer in the 1970 tournament, scoring 10 goals. In total, at the German team he scored 68 goals in 62 games. Unfortunately Gerd pretty quickly finished his national career as he was 28 years old. After all, he was remembered as a great football player. During his entire football career he played a total of 660 matches, scoring 589 goals.
One of the biggest achievements of individual Mueller was the record-breaking 85 goals in one calendar year (in 1972). His record was 40 years old until Lionel Messi scored 92 goals in 2012 and beat him.
After his career he had personal and professional problems that caused him to become depressed and fall into alcoholism. The Bavarian activists at that time were helped him, involving him in youth training at the club. Unfortunately, Gerd Mueller has been suffering from serious Alzheimer's disease for several years now.

    Why did his career in the national team end so quickly?
    Isn't it the fate of many sports people that once their career is finished (which usually happens quite early in their life), they just go off the rails, lose all their money and become dependent on other people?

What do we learn about modern society in this film?

In the film, we certainly have evidence of what contemporary societies are disfigured and duplicitous.

In a certain form, we had such situations shown in the film.
