Tragic-comic event in the Bundesliga at the end of the match against Hoffenheim, the firefighters convinced a fire had broken out, but it was only a cigarette
At Bochum’s stadium, the Vonovia Ruhrstadion, the firefighters suddenly arrived and cleared out the facility and a nearby building. happened on Saturday 27 April at the end of the match won 3-2 by Heiko Butscher’s men against Hoffenheim. A fundamental success with a view to survival with Bochum rising to +3 from third-last Mainz, giving a turning point to the season after having only collected two points in the last eight matchdays, also losing the direct clashes with Mainz, Cologne (penultimate) and Wolfsburg and only snatching a draw with bottom Darmstadt.
The fact is that after this victory, the firefighters showed up with three vehicles. But what happened? The firefighters intervened following an alarm that was activated directly at the station. So the referees, teams, journalists and some fans were accompanied to the emergency exit. It was later discovered that the alarm most likely originated from the Bochum locker room. Place where some footballers were smoking. Not exactly a sporting gesture, but the coach, who replaced Thomas Letsch three weeks ago, closed the episode with a joke: Before the match I told the boys that they had to fight and set the pitch on fire. I didn’t think they would take me literally, he said.
Initially, the fear of the arrival of the firefighters was great, but it only lasted a few minutes. Once they realized the false alarm, and had received a good lecture from the firefighters, the players (and the referees) were able to return inside the Vonovia Ruhrstadion. And now they will think twice about smoking in the locker room, if at all. this time, the coach allows it.
