[ad_1]

However, contrary to preliminary news, the opening match of the new season of the German Soccer Championship on Friday evening will be closed, and the defending champion and winner of the Champions League, Bayern Munich, will host Schalke 04. Bayern fans are sure to be disappointed, but they presumably understand the Munich city administration’s decision to justify keeping viewers away with the number of people infected with the coronavirus, which has started to grow again in the Bavarian capital. .

As our newspaper reported, on Tuesday the federal states agreed to a limited number, but the fans could return to the stands in the new Bundesliga weekend season.

A six-week trial period was carefully established, and only twenty percent of the stadiums’ capacity had to be allowed for spectators. Strict hygiene standards must be adhered to and alcoholic beverages will not be sold on the premises. It is not yet known if other teams will follow Munich’s example, but it is not ruled out that not only the Allianz Arena will remain silent before the encouragement of the printers.
