So, today we have the final of the naional cup here in Denmark.

 

It's one of the first matches with more than 500 people on the stadium (I think it was about 1900 spectators).

There are pretty clear rules about keeping the distance and other things due to the Covid-19 situation.

 

But now the match has been stopped for about 15 minutes due to some fans not following the rules and standing way too close together

Seems like 50 (or so) spectators have left the stadium.

 

What a farce and what a sad situation for people like me who had really looked forward to finally go to the stadium (I'm personally hoping to be there sunday)

Really, they'd stop the match. 

 

On our national cup final today, they are 12 000 spectators allowed and around probably 5 000 more police officers to control them :d 

 

Everyone should be between 1 place and row, but let's be real, football fans won't obey for the most part. It's impossible for the police to have them be distanced.

Something I will never understand about Football in Europe. :wacko:

Yeah. It has been made very clear that rules are rules and they are there to be followed. It's there to help keep the Covid-19 at a minimum while letting the teams get some spectators (it's supposed to be more starting this weekend)

People have an assigned seat and aren't to leave that one.

By far most of the fans follow the rules (including everybody from the smaller team and the official fan club from the bigger one) also after the only goal so far.

Football is important for a lot, but we still have a situation where we need to take it very serious!

Yeah, i exaggerated the number, but they are a lot more than usual.

 

Also, in a normal situation/match there are stewards on the stands and the police is for backup, if things get more rough :d

I was surprised to see that Copenhagen Was knocked out, anyway SØNDERJYSK is leading up 1-0 Over AAB

Same, same, but no one believes it can be accomplished in the stadium. Especially in a final. 

 

Not much spacing. :d

Well. They haven't been in the final since 2017 and really haven't been that impressive this season (also 11 points from no. 1 in the League).

 

But yeah, SønderjyskE leading and deserve the win though Aab is putting on major pressure (with the help of a red card)

Here even hardcore fans of the teams with the biggest fan bases seem to understand the rules (or at least follow them when told so) and complain about those few fools ruining it.

But generally I feel that it was a good signal to stop the match. We are opening up and will see much more spectators, but need to show that the rules must still be followed.

I agree. At least someone still thinks about safety. In Poland for example there are rules where spectators can sit but nobody seems to care about it. We opened stadiums two weeks ago (25% of capacity).

Politicians & police in Poland are scared of the ultras starting riots in the stands. Nobody will stop a football match over breaking social distancing rules here :lol:

    • 4-3  over  at the break, Norway with hammer.
    • whatever you heard is just speculation. no one knows at the moment, probably even the orange himself.   and Iranian athletes failed to get visa so many times before. even female athletes. there is no pattern, it's just too random.    and yes Iran has a system of compulsory military service for men, and there is 50% chance for anybody to be randomly drafted by IRGC affiliated organizations. that's the case for Taremi and few others in the current team.  
    • Would you believe the NCAA Indoor season has already started?      
    • Some changes that I've noticed:   3x3 Basketball: With the expanded 12 team field, one extra team per gender qualifies through world rankings, one extra team qualifies through the universality driven tournament and there's now an Olympic Qualifier series to award the final quotas.   Beach Volleyball: Continental qualifiers have have priority over the World championship and World Rankings quotas and there's now Olympic Qualifier Series quotas.   Canoe Sprint: World ranking system now in place and will be used instead of awarding world championship quotas. Road Cycling: 2 nations ranking quotas per gender moved to universality.   Track Cycling: Sprint and Keirin ranking list is now combined and will award 14 quotas per gender. Previously it was 7+7. Team pursuit down to 8 quotas from 10. 2 of the quotas have been moved to madison (one additional team) and 6 to the omnium.   Fencing: Can get a Continental quota of you finished in the top 24 of the rankings. It was previously top 16.    Hockey: 2 pro league quotas replace two qualification tournament quotas.   Judo: 5 less universality places and 4 more Continental places. For men, there's two more spots for Asia, one less for Oceania and 1 more for the Americas. For the women, there's one more spot for Europe, one less for Oceania and two more for Asia.   Modern Pentathlon: Less quotas awarded through world rankings as a result of quota cuts.   Open Water Swimming: Introduction of world ranking qualifier.   Sailing: In general, seems to be more quotas awarded at the last chance regatta and less quotas at the World Championships   Shooting: One less quota handed out at each World Championship and the return on World Cup qualifiers.   Swimming: Olympic qualification and consideration times renamed to A and B standard. B standard is now 1% slower than the A standard compared to 0.5% in 2024. Stroke 50s have their own direct qualification events and have minimum time standards instead of A and B standards. Qualification times have been nuked again. B standard selection process has also changed.   Volleyball: New revised format. Continental championships first, then world championships followed by world rankings. In 2024, it was 3 qualification tournaments and then world rankings. Only 3 countries per gender will qualify by world rankings now compared to 5 in 2024
    • For Italy, the match against Japan and likely the final match against Estonia will be a safe/relegation game, but I'm think that whether the match against Estonia will be decisive on anything, if we have 0 points after 4 matches. We're currently the worst team here – we have 0 points and are taking significantly fewer shots than our opponents in each match. Japan and Estonia are looking better for now and unfortunately, without significant improvement play starting tomorrow, we'll likely be relegated to the fourth division. With the absence of Russia and Belarus, this will be a shame, even for the weaker 2006/2007 age generation. Especially, since we are playing this tournament at home. For anyone could have competed with a good shape, except perhaps Hungary, who are currently the best team in the tournament.
    • They shouldn't promise additional spots to countries that qualify 3 athletes in each distance, because then taking those spots away isn't fair. For example, in Italy, Previtali won the 500m QO for country but he would likely have to stay at home because the staff probably would have chosen Casinelli for the relay (Casinelli won't be competing individually at all). I don't know what the situation is in Canada with the fifth-place skater? Will this person only compete in the relay, or will he also be a reserve there? 
    • That's too bad. Athletes who finish in the top 32 (or 36 for the 1590m) should be the priority over the 5th athlete from a relay country.   So Croatia loses their 2nd women's quota, Hong Kong loses their only women's quota and Poland loses their 3rd women's quota.   This means that Great Britain, Slovakia and Ukraine should fill up the rest of the 1500m field since they are the highest placed reserves that doesn't require an additional quota.    
    • Philip Rivers' possible return to NFL while being a semifinalist for the Hall of Fame certainly wasn't on my bingo card. But well. So far he's only on the practice squad
    • Thursday December 11th, 2025 - Round-Robin Day 4 Schedule (GMT +1)   12:30   Austria vs Ukraine 16:00   Norway vs Kazakhstan 19:30   Slovenia vs France
