Overview
- The DFL, clubs and local authorities on Friday called off FC St. Pauli vs. RB Leipzig and Werder Bremen vs. TSG Hoffenheim, both scheduled for Saturday.
- Werder cited severe icing, snowdrifts and restricted access that compromised evacuation routes at the Weserstadion, with the operator deeming the venue not operational.
- St. Pauli closed the Millerntor after consultations, with authorities explicitly recommending cancellation given risks at the venue and ongoing constraints across Hamburg’s transport network.
- Travel disruption compounded the decisions, as Deutsche Bahn temporarily suspended northern long‑distance services and local road conditions deteriorated.
- Tickets remain valid and new dates will be announced soon; other fixtures are still planned to proceed, including Frankfurt vs. Dortmund on Friday, with venues like Union Berlin–Mainz under close weather monitoring.
