Berlin (AP) - The derby planned for Easter Sunday between 1. FC Union and Hertha BSC in the Bundesliga will take place without spectators.
As a spokesman for the Berlin Senator for the Interior announced on Tuesday, the game on April 4 (6 p.m. / Sky) in the stadium at the Alte Försterei will not be part of the pilot project for fans to return in the corona pandemic.
Reports of the game being canceled have been rejected by the Senate.
According to reports, politicians and the German Football League are discussing whether or not the Bundesliga games will take place on the Easter weekend.
In principle, models for games in front of spectators should be promoted in Berlin, but not over the Easter holidays, it said.
1. FC Union had submitted an application for the admission of a few thousand visitors with prior corona testing, but according to the Köpenicker, it was not linked to a specific game.
After the game against Hertha, Union will play its next home game two weeks after Easter against VfB Stuttgart.
Last week, several clubs presented the Berlin pilot project.
On Wednesday, for the first time in several months, 800 fans should be able to watch the playoff semifinals of the BR Volleys against the SWD powervolleys Düren in the Max-Schmeling-Halle.
