In Charlottenburg, just before kick-off, the scarves are only ripped up for Frank Zander’s (80) “Just home”. At the FCU entry song “Eisern Union!” by Nina Hagen (66), the Herthaners certainly don’t want to shout their hearts out.
In addition to the sporting misery and the exhausting relegation battle, the blue and white hearts now also have to endure this mockery…
