Fans boycott the German Super Cup! Dissatisfied with the time of the first round of the German Cup being occupied & fans must watch the game on weekdays

August 17th, in the German Super Cup held in the early morning of this morning, Bayern defeated Stuttgart 2-1 and successfully won the championship. However, this game was boycotted by the extremist fans of the two teams.

According to German Sky Sports, the atmosphere in the German Super Cup was not good. This is because the Stuttgart Extreme Fan Group boycotts the German Super Cup for the second consecutive year, and the Bayern Extreme Fan Group also participated in the boycott activity, which resulted in the stands behind the goal without the support of the two teams' loyal fans, and made the atmosphere of the stadium during the game not lively enough.

The reason why Stuttgart fans boycotted the German Super Cup was that this weekend was originally planned to arrange the first round of the German Cup, but the German Super Cup squeezed out this weekend, which led to the first round of the German Cup between Stuttgart and Bayern being postponed to the mid-week later. This forced fans of the two teams to go with the team to watch the German Cup away on weekdays, causing inconvenience to many fans.

During the German Super Cup last season, the Stuttgart fan group had already conducted a similar boycott protest with the Leverkusen fan group. At that time, Stuttgart fan organization GruppierungCommandoCannstatt1997 issued a statement saying: "From our perspective, the German Super Cup is an event without sports appeal, which means nothing to us, and it is not enough to organize fans to participate in the live. In addition, since the German Super Cup is scheduled to be held in the first round of the German Cup, this means we have to go through a completely unnecessary weekly double match, which led to us having to go away games on Tuesday, which is an unnecessary additional burden."

And this time, a spokesperson for Stuttgart fan organization GruppierungCommandoCannstatt1997 told the media: "We have nothing to add to the previous statement." Obviously, the attitude of Stuttgart fans on this issue has not changed.
