Coronavirus Makes Danish Club Brings Creative Ideas

DBasia.news –  A limitless creativity was shown by the Danish club FC Midtjylland in order to be able to hold matches with spectators during the corona virus pandemic. This can even be imitated by other clubs.

Domestic leagues in Europe are indeed preparing to continue the 2019-2020 season competition which was delayed since last March. Holding a match without an audience is the best option as long as the corona virus cannot be overcome.

To anticipate this, Midtjylland management will provide a number of giant screens in the parking area of their headquarters, MCH Arena. Later the fans can watch the match from the car.

This idea is a breakthrough that is worth a try. The club will still get income from ticket sales even though it is limited, but the safety of the audience is also guaranteed because it still applies the Social Distancing rules.

“We are working hard to bring the best experience possible. The corona virus does not change that, it only provides a number of other preconditions,” Midtjylland’s director of marketing, Preben Rokkjaer, told the BBC.

The players inside the stadium can feel the atmosphere of the presence of 10,000 supporters who watched directly from outside the stadium. While the audience can listen to the match commentator’s voice through a radio broadcast in the car.

Midtjylland continues to communicate with related parties so that this plan can be implemented. They also finalized preparations so they could go according to plan.

They realize how important the first fight. If successful, the opened parking capacity will increase in the next fight.

The Danish League plans to roll back on May 17. Midtjylland is currently still at the top of the standings and is certain to qualify for the play-offs.
