Dresden – It may look good and please many fans. Nevertheless, the use of pyrotechnics in the football stadium is not without and, above all, prohibited.

During the third division game between Dynamo Dresden against MSV Duisburg (4-0), several people were injured by pyrotechnics. The police have started an investigation into grievous bodily harm.

“In the second half of the football game, around 100 people set off pyrotechnics in the K-Block (the Ultras’ fan block, ed.) of the Rudolf Harbig Stadium. The perpetrators had previously masked themselves,” said police spokesman Uwe Hofmann on Saturday evening.

In addition, a young person (15) suffered from shortness of breath and a 13-year-old was in shock. All four fans received medical care on site.

A 46-year-old German insulted police officers in the Parkstrasse area after the game. He received a corresponding notice. A total of 264 emergency services secured the third division game. The Dresden Police Department was supported by the Saxon riot police.

In addition, Dynamo Dresden is threatened with a hefty fine from the DFB because setting off pyrotechnics in the football stadium is prohibited.

Just at the beginning of the year, the club was fined 90,000 euros by the DFB sports court for setting off pyrotechnics! Specifically, it was about 240 flares that were burned before and during the third division game against Halleschen FC (2-1) at the beginning of October 2023.
