Paris: German National Football Team Spent the Night at Stadium

By  Saturday, 14.11.2015, 17:44    General News

The terrorist attacks in Paris yesterday happened during the France vs. Germany friendly at the Stade de France in Saint-Denis near Paris. Players on the field and the spectators at the stadium heard the explosions, and according to German TV reporters, the ground at the stadium was shaking. The TV reporters from the live match on German public TV were scared themselves and former FC Bayern Munich player, and now commentator for German public TV, Mehmet Scholl, paused to call home.

Earlier yesterday, the German team had to be evacuated from the hotel they were staying at due to an anonymous bomb warning. The video below shows the moment one of the explosions took place and you can almost feel Patrice Evra’s knees weakening.

The German team landed in Frankfurt this morning and not as planned tomorrow in Hannover, where a match against Holland is set for Tuesday, tomorrow. The German FA (DFB) haven’t yet decided on whether the match will be played.

France is set to play against England at the Wembley Stadium in London also on Tuesday. According to French media, the players and the French FA (FFF) have confirmed that they want to play. Chapeau!
