U21 European Championship: Tier ensures interruption at DFB game against the Czech Republic

Perhaps she was simply surprised by the presence of the almost 8,000 spectators that her wings failed to work. Or she suspected that there would be a goal spectacle and it could be worthwhile to stay: a pigeon ensured a brief interruption of the game in the European U21 national team’s European U21 national team.

It was the eighth minute of play when Germany’s Paul Nebel wanted to perform a corner, but was whistled back by referee Alexis Herrera. The reason for this was mentioned deaf, which was scared and disoriented on the field after her dive.

“It can take a while now,” feared Sat1 commentator Florian Hauser-ultimately unfounded. Because a stadium folder ran on the lawn without further ado, grabbed the bird and quickly ran off the square with it under the applause of the fans. So the game could be continued after a good minute.

It is not known whether the pigeon had injured a visit to her stadium. In any case, TV commentator Hauser wished her all the best and soon to be released into freedom.

Perhaps the bird that was unable to fly was also allowed and witness to a strong appearance of the DFB team, the opponents defeated the Czech Republic with 4: 2 (2: 0) and thus already made it clear to the European Championship quarter-finals prematurely. On Wednesday, the German team will meet defending champion England in the last preliminary round game. Depending on the game output, the team could even go into the co-phase of the tournament as a group winner.

This begins for the young people around national coach Antonio di Salvo this coming weekend. The opponent in the quarter -finals will then be Italy or Spain.
