BVB to cancel advance ticket sale for Bayern game

Because of the current COVID-19 situation in Germany, Borussia Dortmund are cancelling the advance ticket sale for the top of the table Bundesliga clash against FC Bayern München on Saturday at 18:30 CET. Those who have purchased tickets will get their money back.

All of the 67,000 tickets that were available for the decisive Bundesliga game on the basis of the Corona Protection Ordinance of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia had already sold out a few days ago. However, the state government is currently expected to reduce game capacities within the next few days due to the pandemic.

As soon as the political decision regarding future stadium capacities in North Rhine-Westphalia has been made, and we are given reliable information on it, we will inform you about the new advance sale. Fans who have already purchased tickets will get their money back. We will inform all of those who have purchased tickets about reimbursement within the next few days.

The activation of seated season tickets that had originally been planned for this week will not take place, meaning the first partial season ticket payment will not be charged.

Eintracht\u2019s U20 team was the third-best squad in the 2nd Women\u2019s Bundesliga during the second half of the past season. After a coaching change and thanks to a strong offense, the Frankfurt women climbed from 13th place\u2014in the relegation zone\u2014to 8th place in the final standings. <\/p>\n<h2>Match Report<\/b><\/h2>\nDebut, debut, debut: Three new signings\u2014Alex Popp, Lena Ostermeier, and Lara Schmidt\u2014made their first appearances for the BVB Women in the starting lineup. \u201cIt\u2019s a surreal feeling to suddenly be wearing this jersey,\u201d Alex Popp remarked before the game, looking back on her first days in Black and Yellow. Alongside goalkeeper Laura van der Laan, captain Paula Reimann, Jenske Steenwijk, Noreen Günnewig, Annika Enderle, and Frederike Kempe, the starting lineup also included Mia Böger and Nora Willeke, who will play for the second team next season. For the friendly match on the grass field at the Hennef Sports School, a total of 20 field players were named to the matchday roster, each of whom got 45 minutes of playing time. <\/p>\nAn intense first half began with chances and shots on goal from both sides. In front of 160 spectators, the Frankfurt team scored the opening goal in the 22nd minute. The BVB Women then worked their way toward the equalizer with shots on goal, including attempts by Alex Popp. Markus Högner had already highlighted Lara Schmidt\u2019s heading ability as a new goal-scoring threat in the run-up to the match. In the 36th minute, it was the 25-year-old\u2014who had transferred from Werder Bremen to the Black and Yellows this summer\u2014who headed home a free kick to tie the score at 1\u20131. Shortly before halftime, with temperatures at 30 degrees in the blazing sun, Frankfurt retook the lead (45\u2019+5).<\/p>\nIn the second half, Ricarda Walkling, Ramona Maier, and Jacqueline Meißner also made their debuts for the BVB Women. And just seven minutes after the restart, the new signings celebrated their first successful combination play. Meißner outran her opponent on the right wing and hit the right post with her shot. Maier confidently converted the rebound in the 52nd minute to tie the game once again (2\u20132). Meißner didn\u2019t have to wait long for her first goal for the Black and Yellows either. In the 68th minute, it was once again the Maier-Meißner duo that finished the play\u2014following a low cross from the goal line\u2014with a shot from point-blank range to take a 3\u20132 lead. <\/p>\nIn the closing stages, the BVB Women really turned up the heat and created numerous scoring chances. Marina Scholz scored the fourth goal for the Black and Yellows after getting the better of the Frankfurt goalkeeper in a one-on-one situation (75th minute). Shortly before the end, Rita Schumacher scored the final goal of the match from the same position (87th minute)\u2014the final score was a decisive 5\u20132 victory. <\/p>\n\u201cEspecially in the second half, we maintained good pace down the wings with Meißner and Vogel. We were also able to play forward with speed and determination through Maier, Walkling, and Leubner,\u201d said Markus Högner, summarizing the second half.
