📸 Suspended for the HSV clash: Where Union boss Baumgart watched the match | OneFootball

Due to his suspension following the red card and "middle finger" scandal in Union's last match against Frankfurt, Steffen Baumgart was not allowed to be on the sidelines for today's duel against HSV. However, he found himself another spot in the Stadion An der Alten Försterei.

He watched the match against his self-proclaimed favorite club from one of the containers in a free-standing corner of the stadium. He had kept it a secret beforehand. “Let yourself be surprised. Honestly, I don’t know exactly yet,” admitted assistant coach Sebastian Bönig, who stood in for his boss on the sidelines today.

So that no one could disturb him in his often passionate and loud support? At least, there wasn’t much for the head coach to get upset about. The match between Union and HSV ended 0:0.
