Severe Hail Chaos in Munich: DFB Match Delayed Due to Storm!

Chaos at the Allianz Arena

The intensity of the storm was so great that the players had to abandon their warm-up and quickly rushed into the protective interior. The field and surroundings were bombarded by hurricane-force winds, heavy rain, and hailstones, some of which were of considerable size.

These dramatic scenes led to the postponement of the kickoff of the eagerly anticipated game. There was a veritable "hail chaos," as eyewitnesses and reports described.

Warnings of Extreme Weather

But Munich was only a focal point of the extreme weather situation. The German Weather Service (DWD) had already warned in advance of "extreme storms" that were expected to sweep over parts of Germany. Weather maps clearly showed the potential for severe thunderstorms with heavy rain, hail, and storm gusts.

The event in Munich is a striking example of how quickly a storm can disrupt plans and create dramatic moments, even at major events like an international football match. After a delay, the game was eventually able to kick off, but the shock ran deep.
