Second-tier football club SV Darmstadt began their match against Karlsruher SC in a nightmare scenario. The team's fan support group reported a confrontation with police at the start of the game, before the match even began. According to the fan group, police officers used batons to forcefully remove several fans from the area, with no clear reason given.
When police arrived at the scene, four fans remained on the upper platform, one of which was seriously injured and required an ambulance. Despite this, the fans were ordered to leave the area and had to travel home. Police have not yet commented on the incident.
Adding to the club's troubles, Kohfeldt's team were already 4-0 down just over an hour into the game. With the lack of support from their fans, Kohfeldt will likely have some questions to answer following this performance. Darmstadt currently sit 17th in the 2. Bundesliga.
