Modernised media area unveiled at BayArena

Bayer 04 has modernised its media working area in the stands at the BayArena and equipped it with new, multifunctional monitors. The 50 screens will be used for the first time for the fixture against Borussia Dortmund on Matchday 13 in the Bundesliga next Sunday, 3 December (kick-off: 17:30 CET) and offer the media representatives working at the BayArena on matchday numerous possibilities.

The new equipment consists of 13-inch full HD monitors with a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels and a brightness of 300 Cadela installed in rows 9 and 10. The new technology makes it possible to follow the television picture live in HD quality at the same time as the live action in the stadium. Media representatives can select different channels individually via a user-friendly navigation module on each table.

During the match against Dortmund, it will be possible to receive the live broadcast picture on channel 1, the live match statistics will be displayed on channel 2, and the scores of the current matchday can be viewed on channel 3. In the future, there will be further selection options, for example the Bayer 04 live blog.

Holger Tromp, Director of Communications at Bayer 04: "It is important to us that we support the media representatives working on their reporting at our games as professionally as possible. The demands on journalists have increased enormously in recent years. As a club, we also aim to always offer the most modern infrastructure possible."

Werkself review: ‘We never lost our belief’

Once the final whistle was blown, it was time to take a deep breath. 2-0 down and a 5–2 win in the end. It was a nerve-wracking affair against FC Nürnberg in the second round of the 2026–27 DFB Pokal. Jonas Hofmann said – “We didn’t let our heads drop” – hitting the nail on the head. Indeed, it was clear the Werkself were not prepared to accept elimination from the DFB Pokal. So they went on to score. The Black and Reds made their presence felt with a goal just before half-time, followed by four more in the second half. Or, to put it another way: Edmond Tapsoba’s first Bayer 04 brace, a clinical penalty from Patrik Schick, yet another precision strike from Hofmann and a blistering volley from Lucas Vázquez. Each goal more beautiful than the last! After the match, head coach Carles Martínez praised his team’s commitment above all else and the fact that they never lost belief in themselves. The Werkself review.
