At the start of the Bundesliga, the boards of directors of Bayern and FC Schalke sat in the stands without any distance or mask.

After Minister Melanie Huml, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge is now in touch.

  • The

    Bayern Munich

    won the first Bundesliga game of the season against Schalke 04 with 8: 0.

  • The behavior of the

    boards of

    both clubs in the stands caused criticism.

  • First the

    Bavarian Minister of Health

    intervened - now also Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.

Update from September 20, 2020, 12:18 p.m

.: Karl-Heinz Rummenigge speaks live on TV on Sky90 on Sunday about the current situation at Bayern Munich.

Above all, the grandstand scandal is an issue.

The CEO admits mistakes.

Karl-Heinz Rummenigge:

 “Yesterday I spoke to Christian Seifert on the phone.

I think the picture wasn't exemplary.

We want to keep the necessary distance in the next game.

We have an interest that health requirements are taken into account, but of course we want to play in front of spectators again. "

Bayern bosses receive heavy criticism: Oli Kahn reprimanded by Minister Huml with mask-corona saying

Update from September 20, 2020, 9:02 a.m.: From a

sporting point of view, the

Bundesliga start

for

Bayern was made

to measure.

At the end of the 8-0 success against discouraged Schalke players, they were almost willing to ask the question whether the result could not have been in double digits.

But even if

fans were still not allowed

at the start of the season due to the sharp

rise in corona infections

in Bavaria, there was trouble in the stands.

The boards of both clubs took care of this.

During the lively kick, the bosses sat next to each other like chickens on the pole

without any distance or

face mask and did not seem to care about the role model they were supposed to demonstrate.

This caused a lot of criticism from fans and the media

(see first report below)

.

But that's not all.

Now there is also

headwind from politics

in the person of

Melanie Huml

, the Bavarian Minister of Health.

This also warned that it was "wiser if they hadn't sat so close together - because there was enough space".

FCB board member

Oliver Kahn

said after the game that this seating arrangement was based on the Bavarian regulation.

Kahn was alluding to the rule that in public facilities such as restaurants ten people are allowed to sit next to each other in a group.

However, this regulation does not apply to

nationwide sporting events

, as Huml emphasized: "According to the ordinance, a minimum distance of 1.5 meters is required for nationwide sporting events".

While up to

10,000 spectators

are

already

allowed

in other stadiums in Germany

, Bayern must continue to play in front of empty stands.

If this is to be changed as soon as possible, the board members should also live up to their role model function.

"In general, the following applies to Corona anyway: keep your distance where possible.

Put on masks where necessary, ”explained Huml.

During the corona pandemic, Uli Hoeneß, of all people, praised the CSU and Huml for their approach and handling of corona.

FC Bayern Munich: Violent Corona criticism to the FCB board

sat in

the stands

without any

distance or mask

FC Bayern: Executive floor without a gap in the stands - Oliver Kahn comments

During the game, commentator

Claudia Neumann was

amazed at

the sight and questioned the behavior of the football officials.

After the game,

ZDF presenter Katrin Müller-Hohenstein

also checked

with

FCB board member Oliver Kahn

.

“There were no specifications because we adhered to the Bavarian ordinance that allows this,” he replied.

In Bavaria, ten people are allowed to meet in public without any distance or face-to-face protection.

Just as many bosses sat together.

Criticism on Twitter of the Bayern board: "It stunned me"

Bayern's

positional play

on the pitch: exemplary.

Bayern's positional game next to the pitch: irresponsible, "commented a user on Twitter and continued to rail:" It stunned me.

You are playing

an internationally and nationally broadcast ghost game

in a city that is really

struggling

with

infections

and do you think it is a good idea not to keep your distance in an otherwise empty stadium and to forego MNS? "

Bavarian positional play on the pitch: exemplary.

Another writes: "The fact that all the officials

are sitting

there without any

distance

is pretty ridiculous, and unfortunately very symbolic of the development of football."

“The

distance rules in the stadiums that were explicitly mentioned yesterday

by the

DFL

apparently do not apply to the

FC Bayern official

gallery

.

This is a questionable signal, especially in view of the situation in Munich, ”said Spox editor-in-chief Martin Volkmar on Twitter.
