YB fans go home early

“Hängers Wachet uf”, the boys of Root 5 rap during half time. The sound from the stadium speakers in Wankdorf in Bern also serves as a message to the YB professionals in Letzigrund in Zurich, 117 kilometers away: there must be more, so that the master party and the Bern Freinacht become something.

But as soon as the second half gets underway, YB captain Fabian Lustenberger is shot down – 3:1 to the Grasshoppers. In Wankdorf, where some 3,000 fans have gathered for the public screening, the first go home. And if your favorites still manage to turn things around in Zurich, you’ll be right back.

After Pusics 4:1 it is clear: that will no longer be the case today. And so the ranks thin out even faster. At the final whistle at 10:22 PM, Wankdorf is practically empty.

The bank manager’s fear

“If I succeed against Lucerne on Sunday, I will quickly forget that night,” says a YB fan as he leaves the stadium – adding on behalf of probably all yellow-black supporters: “Please, not Sofameister!”

If Lugano and Servette don’t win their matches on Wednesday and Lucerne loses to Winterthur on Thursday, the horror scenario would be perfect. The more appropriate term is: luxury problem. The wish of the fans is again a postponement of the championship party to Sunday.

Those who stayed at home in Wankdorf almost stoically noted that YB handed in the first game ball with the biggest loss of the season in Letzigrund. No move at the early 0:1 by Demhasaj. A moment of cheering at the 1-1 victory via Fassnacht, then no emotion at goals two, three and four. YB chants sound twice in Wankdorf, otherwise you will only hear the fans who have traveled to Zurich through loudspeakers, which provide a home game atmosphere there.

Wankdorf should be full again against Lucerne on Sunday. For the seventh time this season. It doesn’t matter if YB is already champion or still has to get the necessary points to cross the finish line: it will be a party anyway.
