Reuters – The matches between St Pauli and RB Leipzig and Werder Bremen against Hoffenheim on Sunday were postponed. Germany has been hit by heavy snowfall and freezing temperatures in recent days with more expected over the weekend.
The stadium operator of St Pauli’s Millerntor Stadium closed the venue after consulting with local authorities, Germany’s football league said in a statement on Friday. “This is due to the large amount of snow and ice across the entire stadium grounds and the associated safety risks for everyone involved on match day, as well as the critical overall situation in Hamburg. A new date for the match will be announced shortly,” the club said.
It was a similar case in Bremen. There have been concerns that other matches, including Union Berlin against Mainz 05, could also be adversely affected by the weather as the Bundesliga season restarts this weekend after a three-week winter break.
