Conflicts between the city of Frankfurt and the state of Hesse are always nice to look at

: the citizens of the metropolis on the Main tend to believe that they don't care who ruled the state among them. In the case of the question of how many viewers will

be allowed to

watch the Eintracht friendly against St. Etienne

on Saturday

, the dispute has now been quickly settled. Frankfurt wanted to allow 10,000 spectators, Hesse 5,000, now the state has turned on. In return, it would be nice now, the lucky ten thousand really sat down at a distance, didn't hug each other in the 5-0 win against the French and went home in single file, without any fraternization scene. Because if the game turns out to be a

super spreader event

proves, that would not only be bad for the infected, but also for those who fought for higher visitor numbers.

Optimistic natures will emphasize that the incidence in Hesse is not increasing any further, it was 17.7 on Monday and

17.0

on

Tuesday

. Pessimists, on the other hand, will point out that the value on Tuesday a week ago was only 14.3. Yes, is there no good news at all? But of course, everything is not always bad.

The Hessian high school graduates are getting smarter, the average of all Abi grades this year was 2.25, despite the Corona crisis

, which made learning much more difficult. 799 high school graduates achieved a 1.0. May you make something good of it.
