The protests against the planned entry of a DFL investor are causing the next longer interruption.
This time Paderborn's second division game against Kiel is affected.
Paderborn - Due to the constant throwing of tennis balls from both fan blocks, the second division game between SC Paderborn and Holstein Kiel has been interrupted for a long time.
When the score was 0:3 after around an hour, the first balls were flying.
When referee Patrick Alt wanted to blow the whistle again, the ball was thrown again.
Paderborn's coach Lukas Kwasniok tried to talk to the fans in the corner.
The teams were in the dressing room and there was a threat of the game being abandoned.
The DFL wants to collect one billion euros from a financial investor for a percentage share of the TV revenue.
When the 36 professional clubs voted on the deal, the necessary two-thirds majority was only barely achieved.
Many fans have been protesting in the stadiums for weeks, mainly by throwing objects against entry, and games are repeatedly interrupted.
