Borussia Dortmund have apologized and said the club will speak to police after a number of its supporters violated coronavirus regulations by rallying outside their training ground after the club’s 4-0 victory on his rival Schalke on Saturday.
Two goals from Erling Haaland, and one each from Jadon Sancho and Raphael Guerreiro sealed victory at Veltins Arena and propelled Dortmund to sixth place in the Bundesliga.
Around 200 supporters, some of whom had lit flares, flouted Germany’s strict social distancing rules and waited for the Dortmund team bus to return to their Brackel training center.
Midfielder Mahmoud Dahoud shared live video of the scenes on his Instagram account, with players celebrating from the bus.
“With all the understandable joy of winning the derby, there were public violations of the coronavirus rules as the team returned to the training ground last night, which will not be tolerated,” reads a club statement, released on Sunday.
Around 150-200 fans cheered on the team outside the training ground, some of whom wore no masks and did not follow social distancing rules. The players celebrated with the fans – without leaving the bus – and in exuberance some even filmed it.
“We can only apologize and promise to speak to the police and everyone involved very soon about how such scenes can be completely excluded in public in the future.”
