In preparation for the Champions League away game in Rotterdam, Bayer 04 are striving for a fair and above all safe stadium experience for all spectators. The club is in close contact with the hosts, the management at Feyenoord and the Dutch and German security organisations.
Due to the potentially explosive nature of this game, Bayer 04 fans are asked to behave peacefully and responsibly at the De Kuip Stadium as well as in the city of Rotterdam. Concrete information and recommendations for travelling fans will be available shortly in the club's fan information. Bayer 04 also ask fans to avoid conflict situations arising through sensible behaviour. The following special circumstances are to be expected in Rotterdam.
Bayer 04 will endeavour to do everything possible to make the game an atmospheric but above all peaceful football fest. Together with the hosts from Feyenoord, who we have a close relationship with, we ask all Bayer 04 fans for their support.
