New Thunderstorm Policy in the BundesligaStarting this season, a new thunderstorm policy is in effect regarding potential game interruptions due to thunderstorms. Essentially, it states: If lightning strikes within a 10-kilometer radius, the officiating crew is warned; if it strikes within a 5-kilometer radius, an alarm is triggered. The referee then decides whether to suspend the game. Play may resume no sooner than 20 minutes after the last recorded lightning strike within a five-kilometer radius. If the interruption lasts longer than 30 minutes, a five-minute warm-up is scheduled. The referee also decides whether to resume play or call off the game.
The BVB fan bus will be parked in the bus parking lot in front of the visitors’ section.
