Schalke 04 vs. Hertha BSC: Fan annoys overshadowed home game!

At the upcoming encounter between FC Schalke 04 and Hertha BSC on Saturday, October 5, at 8:30 p.m. in the Veltins Arena, the S04 must first work on an incident with its fans. After a Champions League game between Schachtar Donetsk and Atalanta Bergamo, on October 2, there was a discussion between Schalke fans and supporters of the Italian team on October 2 at the arena. According to a police report, 30 to 40 organized Schalke fans, who were previously hidden, attacked the Bergamo supporters. Four suspects were recorded by the police.

FC Schalke 04 immediately commented on the incidents and sharply condemned violence. In a statement, the association announced that it would support the investigation. The Gelsenkirchen police chief Tim Frommeyer pointed out that these events could lead to a recommendation to the UEFA not to allow guest performances in Schalke in the future. Despite the fan annoyance, the arena will be almost sold out for the game against Hertha BSC, with about 5,000 fans from Berlin to be expected.
