Austria vs Denmark postponed after major power outage

Postponement of the League of Nations meeting between Austria and Denmark.

The match that would have started at 20.45 would not start until 22.15 after the major power outage in Vienna.

Both Austria and Denmark impressed when they won their first Nations League match against Croatia and France respectively.

But those waiting to meet the team at Ernst Happel Stadium tonight will have to wait. A major power outage in Vienna made it impossible to play according to schedule.

An entire area has been extinguished

The break is approaching. Then the big screen will suddenly go out and what is worse from a safety point of view, this also applies to all emergency exit signals and headlights.

According to Kronen Zeitung, the power outage will affect the entire second district where Ernst Happel Stadium is located.

Currier writes that the two larger electric cables are not working, and in addition to the stadium, it also affects 1,500 homes and amusement parks.

“You must be patient”

We must be patient, work hard to solve the problem, but we are just spectators in this camp, says Austrian Football Association CEO Ernst Peter Neuhold.

On 21.02 the broadcast returned to Viaplay but continued from an enclosed stadium where, however, the speakers worked well enough to sing to Neil Diamonds Sweet Caroline. When silence, however, the whistle dominated the concert.

At 21.30 the power returned and at 21.40 a new start time was fixed at 22.15. Long evening for 22000 but at least they’ll follow the international until midnight.
