The city of Dortmund expects at least 200,000 people in the public area at a possible BVB championship celebration on Sunday. However, there will be no public viewing during the Bundesliga final against Mainz 05 on Saturday – because there is no special approval.
“We’re assuming that the team won’t let anything burn on Saturday and then we can celebrate on Sunday,” said Lord Mayor Thomas Westphal, who is expecting the team in the town hall on Sunday. After that, the traditional circuit of the Borsigplatz is planned. After the 3-0 win in Augsburg, the “Black-Yellows” can make everything clear at home with a win against a weakening Mainzer on Saturday. Chaser Bayern would have no chance. “The city will burn” promised goalscorer Julian Brandt. Not only the players, but also the fans long for the end of a long dry spell, in 2012 the club crossed the finish line as champions for the last time.
