Salzburg – Thursday, September 17, 2020, 3:01 pm
Israel will close the store starting Friday with a lockdown, but that doesn’t seem to be relevant to UEFA. The European association has determined that Red Bull Salzburg will still have to play the first leg at Maccabi on Tuesday (September 22, 9:00 PM CEST) in Tel Aviv.
The duel will take place at Bloomfield Stadium, spectators are not allowed.
Salzburg coach Jesse Marsch expressed health concerns ahead of the decision, while a positive crown case has also been made public in the opponent’s lineup (read HERE >>>).
“Personally, I don’t want to play in Israel. Because it is dangerous right now, it is dangerous for our group,” Marsch said at a news conference Thursday. The latest figures set a record with officially 5,523 new cases, in Israel 1,147 people have died after a corona infection so far.
Salzburg does not fear the curse of the CL classification
Salzburg’s preparations should not continue to be impressed. First of all, the Bundesliga home game against Altach is on Saturday anyway.
All attempts to qualify for the Champions League since he joined Red Bull in 2005 have so far failed. The Immaculate March in this matter is also aware of this.
“I think in the past a lot of the club here had stress and fear of a qualifying round like this because they didn’t make it,” Marsch said. “But right now we have a group that understands what the Champions League means and what it takes. That is an advantage for us.”
