FC Bayern Munich: Many seats remained empty against Benfica Lisbon – football

Well, a few places remained empty …

Bayern host Benfica Lisbon (5-2) for the Champions League game, but the arena is not sold out. The upper tier looks very empty, nine blocks are completely empty. The official attendance: 50,000.

Even less than against Hoffenheim (60,000) in the league. This was the first game that, for the first time since March 2020, since the outbreak of the corona pandemic, allowed 75,000 fans (3G + rule).

Why doesn’t the record champions get the hut full?

The autumn holidays are in Bavaria, the game is during the week and kick-off time is late (9 p.m.). In addition, after three wins in the first three games, Munich are almost qualified for the round of 16, the sporting appeal could be greater in a Champions League game.

In addition, the season tickets are only valid from the Freiburg game (November 6th), there were only day tickets against Hoffenheim and Benfica.

It’s clear: Before the start of the corona pandemic, the Munich arena was ALWAYS sold out. After all: The top game against Freiburg on Saturday (3:30 p.m.) should already be sold out.
