57,000 spectators: Before the cup semi-final with a record setting, the financial bosses of Hamburger SV and Werder Bremen talk about the professionalization of the women’s Bundesliga, hopes and anger of a possible home European Championship-and the longing for Nordderby.
When the semi-finals in the DFB Cup between Hamburger SV and Werder Bremen takes place on Sunday, the backdrop will be as large as with no game in the German club football of women: 57,000 spectators will come into the sold-out folk park stadium. For HSV board member Eric Huwer and Werder managing director Klaus Filbry, the interest in the northern derby shows the potential of women’s football. The competition this season is not only extraordinary: for the first time in ten years, VfL Wolfsburg will not be given the trophy. In the other semi-finals, FC Bayern and TSG Hoffenheim face each other on Saturday-in front of 2500 spectators in the Munich Campus Stadium.
