Magdeburg Christmas market attack: German football in shock DW 12/21/2024
Briefly

"When football becomes a secondary concern, read the statement on the club's site where a match report would usually sit. Our club won the away game at Fortuna Dusseldorf 5:2, but to be honest, we are also finding it difficult to find the words. That's why the match report ends here."
"It's almost impossible to talk about football tonight. Right now the people in Magdeburg are in our thoughts," Bayern coach Vincent Kompany said. His opposite number, Marco Rose struggled to process the news while Bayern later canceled their Christmas party.
"German football is shocked by this attack, and its thoughts are with the victims and their families at this tough time. We also wish the injured a speedy recovery," the DFL wrote on its website.
"Much strength to Magdeburg. The festivities and competitive nature of football take a back seat in the wake of tragedy, emphasizing community solidarity in times of crisis."
