World Cup hero passes<\/h2>\n

Andreas Brehme \u2014 scorer of the winning goal for Germany in the 1990 World Cup final \u2014 has died at the age of 63.<\/p>\n

The left-back scored a decisive 85th-minute penalty as his side lifted their third title by beating Argentina 1-0 in Rome.<\/p>\n

Brehme racked up 86 appearances for Germany and won the Bundesliga with both Kaiserslautern and Bayern Munich as well as a Serie A title with Inter Milan.<\/p>\n

A statement from Bayern said: \u201cFC Bayern are extremely saddened by the sudden passing of Andreas Brehme. We extend our deepest sympathies to his family and friends.<\/p>\n

\u201cAndreas Brehme will forever be in our hearts, as a World Cup winner and, more importantly, as a very special person.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

\u201cHe will forever be part of the FC Bayern family. Rest in peace, Andi!\u201d<\/p>\n

Marseille have appointed former Ivory Coast boss Jean-Louis Gasset as their new manager after sacking Genaro Gattuso.<\/p>\n

Gattuso, 46, took over in September but has been relieved of his duties with the club ninth in Ligue 1 after only nine wins in 24 matches in charge.<\/p>\n

Les Phoceens have decided to replace the Italian with Gasset, who was sacked by Ivory Coast during the recent Africa Cup of Nations group stage before they went on to win the tournament.<\/p>\n

The Frenchman, 70, said: \u201cIt\u2019s a huge honour for me to join this legendary club that is Olympique de Marseille.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t wait to start working with this group to prepare for the upcoming events and give our best.\u201d<\/p>\n

Coming home<\/h2>\n

Barnet have announced plans to return to their original home after 10 years out of the borough.<\/p>\n

Bees chairman Anthony Kleanthous wants to build a new stadium having played their games at The Hive in Edgware since 2013.<\/p>\n

The North London club\u2019s previous ground Underhill Stadium was their home for more than a decade before they relocated due to leasing issues with the council.<\/p>\n

Underhill has since been demolished Kleanthous is ready to press ahead with plans to construct a new 8,000-capacity stadium located in South Underhill.<\/p>\n

He said in a statement: \u201cI always felt that if it were possible, then Barnet should return to the home from where it took its identity.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope that we will receive the full support of Barnet fans, local residents and the council so that we can bring our incredible club back to where it belongs.\u201d<\/p>\n
