I am in Bochum today, for the first game of the season for Concordia Wiemalhausen, who were scheduled to play SV Rhynern Westfalia in the Oberliga Westfalen (tier 5). Sadly the game has been cancelled, by mutual agreement of both teams, due to the deaths of both parents of a home player in a tragic accident. No catch-up date for the match has been scheduled yet.
“Of course, we were all keen for the season to start. But in the end, it’s all about football. There are much more important things than football,” David Schmidt, Sporting Director of Westfalia, “Westfälischer Anzeiger” is quoted.
Amen.
