There won’t be any next weekend Bundesliga-games instead. The 2nd Bundesliga also pauses.
The German football fans have to be patient! The reason? The World Cup qualifiers take place on the other continents. In addition, the decisive games are played at the Africa Cup.
The match day of the World Cup qualifiers was supposed to take place worldwide between August 31 and September 8, 2021, but the dates were changed due to the Corona-pandemic postponed. Only Uefa did not cancel the appointments at that time and let the European national teams run up.
“It will be an intense time, which we also use”
Da die Klubs from Europe still have to turn off their foreign players, the European leagues are now taking a break and will only be back in action on February 4th / 5th / 6th.
This is quite convenient for many a club that is in poor form, in order to work against the crisis in friendlies or, like VfB Stuttgart, even with a training camp in Marbella.
Elsewhere, the professionals should also have a few days off to regenerate or treat injuries. “It will be an intense time that we will use,” said Borussia Dortmund coach Marco Rose.
