Champions League and Cup qualifying victories: now the first Bundesliga game awaits Rapid. Christoph Peschek explains what fans can expect.
At the start of the Cup against St. Johann / Pongau, the Green-Whites were already playing in front of 1,250 fans, for the first time since the outbreak of the Corona crisis, the spectators were seated in the Hütteldorfer stadium. According to Peschek, the “anti-crown dress rehearsal” was not only due to the clear success of 5-0: “We are pleased that our crown dress rehearsal for the start of the league was a success from an organizational point of view and at the same time our team is sovereign. The audience that was present adhered very well to the preventive measures. Therefore, we would like to thank Rapidlerinnen for their cooperation and understanding. We know their cooperation in the fight against COVID-19, “he explains in a broadcast .
When the first Bundesliga game takes place on September 12 at home against Admira, a significantly larger number of spectators should be sitting in the stands. “We have worked out a comprehensive concept with Dr. Hans-Peter Hutter, we have received official approvals for it and we are pleased, also in terms of planning, to welcome at least 10,000 spectators at the Allianz Stadium in the first Bundesliga matches, taking into account the maximum health protection measures “, Peschek announces.
Even the relatively high number of fans in the stadium, at least compared to the league’s rivals, is not a big deal for Rapid, as Peschek explains: “We are happy to be able to play football and now at least in front of a limited number of fans, but as crowd shooters we are unfortunately still affected by massive economic damage. Therefore we hope to gradually return to normality with which we are familiar and, if the health situation allows, to be able to operate at full capacity again soon. “
Peschek once again points out the hygiene measures in the stadium to the fans: “We call on all stadium visitors to take hygiene measures seriously also in the championship and we thank them for their impressive support so far and in the future”.
