FC Bayern Munich announces consequences for the chaots among fans after the scandal game at 1899 Hoffenheim. At home games in the Allianz Arena, the record champions face a huge problem. An analysis.

  • The fan scandal surrounding the 1899 Hoffenheim game against Bayern polarized.
  • The record champion from Munich announces consequences against his own Ultras.
  • For home games in the Allianz Arena and away in the Bundesliga, there is now a huge problem.

After the fan scandal at FC Bayern Munich's 6-0 win at 1899 Hoffenheim, the German record champion in the person of President Herbert Hainer has announced that "he will use all the means at our disposal to act consistently against those who are FC Bayern and." have discredited all German football and trod our values ​​”.

FC Bayern Munich ultras insult Hoffenheim boss Dietmar Hopp

Obviously Ultras of FC Bayern had insulted the majority owner of Hoffenheim, Dietmar Hopp , with banners in the fan block. According to Hainer, all options should be examined "with which we can prevent such an unworthy campaign as was repeated yesterday in Hoffenheim," the Bayern boss continued.

The 65-year-old Niederbayer initially left open how these options could look. CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge had said after the incident at Sky : "That is the very ugly face of FC Bayern ! We had the whole thing filmed. We will be vigorous against them and they will definitely be held accountable at the end of the day. We have allowed far too much. A rethink must take place today. We have to do everything we can to combat it. ”

Scandal in Hoffenheim: confused explanation of the Ultras of FC Bayern Munich

The Bayern Ultras , from whose ranks the scattered chaots most likely originate, had declared themselves to be the events immediately after the events - and apparently prepared.

On suedkurve-muenchen.org , the overarching website of various fan clubs, it said: “Among other things, Mr. Hopp has significantly disturbed the spiral itself by using background noises that cause pain to some BVB supporters and a private war with various ones Fan scenes started. "

FC Bayern Ultras: Kulturkampf in the Bundesliga

The website was no longer available as of Sunday afternoon, March 1st. It is clear in the chaotic mixture that the cultural struggle in the Bundesliga between socially romantic ultra groups on the one hand and the German Football League (DFL) and influential investors ( e.g. Hopp and RB Leipzigs Dietrich Mateschitz ) on the other is openly paving the way ,

FC Bayern is facing a huge problem in this scenario, which even the offensive spectacular football under coach Hansi Flick cannot make up for.

FC Bayern ultras create a mood in the Allianz Arena

Because: Those who are now to be punished are presumably congruent with those who create mood at home games in the south curve of the Allianz Arena *.

The stadium in the north of Munich is sold out at every home game with 75,000 spectators, 38,000 season tickets were sold.

In normal Bundesliga home games, it is really quiet in the arena, fan chants only come from the southern curve where the fan group Schickeria , which is now so sharply criticized, is at full throttle for 90 minutes - and supports their team even when it is not running, during that rest of the stadium likes to whistle.

Ultras from the Schickeria accompany FC Bayern in the Champions League

The members of the Schickeria are also the fans who accompany Bayern to away games, be it over thousands of kilometers in the Champions League.

In contrast, as the picture calculates, the average journey of fans to the Allianz Arena for home games is 337 kilometers. Most of them want to be in the arena.

Many of them have a manageable relationship to Munich - apart from the obligatory visit to the Hofbräuhaus.

Swabian, Franconian, Saxon or Swiss German is often spoken on the subway on the way to Fröttmaning, many fans come from South Tyrol, Thuringia or North Rhine-Westphalia.

FC Bayern ultras are closely related to Munich

This is very different for the Ultras, who sometimes protest against social-political grievances in the Bavarian capital.

They meet in pubs in Schwabing, where the club was founded, or make hundreds of pilgrimages to home games of the second team in the time-honored Grünwald stadium in Giesing , in the heart of Munich.

Ergo: FC Bayern now has the stress that exactly supports the team in the stadium - excluding all misconduct like pyro excesses. It will be exciting to see how the people of Munich want to solve this.
