The atmosphere was tense before the game. After Hertha's victory, however, it remained calm according to the police. Most of the fans are on their way home.

After the end of the high-risk match between Hertha BSC and Dynamo Dresden, there were no clashes between fans of both teams around Berlin's Olympic Stadium, according to the police. "Everything was calm," said a police spokeswoman late in the afternoon after the hosts' 2-0 win. "There were no more incidents after the game." The departure of the fans was peaceful.

The police's concept included directing the Hertha fans along completely different routes than the Dynamo supporters. Ideally, they should not clash at all. "That worked well," said the police spokeswoman.
