4500 fans in the test match of streaming star Elias |
District league spectacle in Berlin
Fan madness in the test match of the top division Tasmania against the newly founded club Delay Sports (district league C, 11th league)!
An estimated 4500 fans, mostly teenagers, want to see how Internet star Elias Nerlich (24) plays with his team (including ex-Hertha player Sidney Friede) and pays five euros for admission.
The game will be kicked off 15 minutes later because of the rush.
Who is the man who draws the youngsters to the amateur course? Ex-eSportler Nerlich is one of the German superstars of the so-called streaming scene. 1.1 million fans follow him regularly when he plays on the platform Twitch or just talks to the fans.
Nerlich didn’t play at all, but gave the fans autographs at the Werner-Seelenbinder-Sportpark in Neukölln.
Oh yes, football was also played: 2-0 for the former Bundesliga club Tasmania.
