Scandal in the stadium: Babelsberg fan convicted after attack on Cottbus player!
In the past few days, the focus was on the exciting rivalry between SV Babelsberg 03 and FC Energie Cottbus when an incident had frightening consequences during a decisive state cup game. On September 6, 2024 there was a tumult in the Karl Liebknecht Stadium when Cottbus player Niko Bretschneider was showered with beer and his partner was injured on the face. This argument ended for a fan of SV Babelsberg, Julian O., before the district court of Potsdam, where he was convicted of assault and assault, how maz-online.de reports.The incident not only triggered legal consequences for Julian O., who withdrawn his objection to the punitive order and has to pay a total of 1,600 euros, but also led to a house ban that was imposed on him by the end of the 2024/25 season. However, there are still many open questions. SV Babelsberg stated that it cannot be clarified whether the blow against the player woman was deliberately.
a shady chapter in fan culture
football violence and the dark side of the fan culture are not uncommon and throw a dark shadow on the sports world. The incident from Babelsberg is only an example of many, but is further fueled by the rivalry of the two clubs, which has made headlines again and again in the past. FC Energie Cottbus received a fine of 2,500 euros for hate messages and glorification of violence in the 2024 Brandenburg Cup final. In just 2024, both clubs were occupied with high fines-Babelsberg was punished with about 40,000 euros and a one-year exclusion from the trophy, while Cottbus for Pyrotechnik was punished, such as the [sueddeutsche.de] (https://www.sueddeutsche.de/sport/sport negotiations-babelsberg-cott- fan-li.3226652) reported.
These incidents not only have an impact on the clubs, but also raise fundamental questions about security and independence from sports guards. There are concerns about objectivity, especially if judges with connections to clubs such as FC Energie Cottbus are active in various procedures, which SV Babelsberg criticizes.
dealing with violence in football
The ubiquitous risk of riots and the culture of violence in football are topics that always come up with the agenda. How Deutschlandfunk.de analyzes, dealing with fan violence remains a major challenge for those responsible and the clubs themselves. While FC Köln had to struggle with difficulties for a long time, numerous clubs are trying through dialogue and de-escalation solutions find.
FC Energie Cottbus and SV Babelsberg are now facing the next encounter. On August 2, 2024, both teams will meet in the first matchday of the new season. It remains to be seen whether the charged atmosphere will affect the game according to the recent events. But one thing is certain: the rivalry between the two clubs guarantees exciting but not always peaceful encounters in the future.
