Officially, the police said after the explosive North bang in the Ostsee Stadium: Thanks to the consistent separation of the fan camps, there was no clash and no major problems. FC St. Pauli fans will see things differently.
When they arrived with the special train organized by the fan shop, they had to wait a long time at the train station until the far too few buses continued to the stadium.
During the break, Hansa chaos tried to shoot dangerous pyros into the guest block from the stadium perimeter – and initially the security forces did not prevent that.
Immediately after the end of the game, it should go quickly and directly to the waiting train. But it wasn’t: The fans (who burned pyros themselves in the stadium) had to wait for the buses in a fenced-off area for more than 45 minutes in the freezing cold. They didn’t come, but instead Hansa fans who had partied and fired Pyros into the waiting crowd again. She had no way of avoiding it. A water cannon was used for a short time.
The special train steamed back to Hamburg after a long delay. The only positive: Nobody was seriously injured, but the circumstances were anything but pleasant.
