Mauro Lustrinelli invites quiz show contestant to Union Berlin match

Mauro Lustrinelli, the head coach of Union Berlin, has invited Noah Petrik to a home match against FC Köln following a viral moment on the RTL quiz show ‘Wer wird Millionär?’.

During the broadcast, Petrik was unable to identify Lustrinelli as the new Union Berlin coach when asked a question for 2,000 euros. Despite using a telephone joker, the contestant provided an incorrect answer and lost prize money, dropping to the 500-euro level.

In response to the incident, Lustrinelli announced that the club would host Petrik for a match and a meet-and-greet, offering him a behind-the-scenes look at the club as a gesture of goodwill. Lustrinelli noted that the invitation was intended to turn the unsuccessful experience into a positive one.
