The international friendly between Germany and the Netherlands in Hanover has been canceled over security concerns, German police have confirmed. A suspicious object had been found before the game.
Less than two hours before kick-off the international match between Germany and the Netherlands in Hanover has been canceled by German police.
Police confirmed that an object had been found in the stadium, forcing all personel to be evacuated immediately.
Earlier in the evening a “suspicious object” had been discovered by police forces around the stadium. Road blocks were set-up and no fans were allowed to enter the area surrounding the HDI-Arena. However, police did eventually open the roads, allowing journalists and fans to enter the stadium.
An official announcement from the police forces stated for fans to not ‘stand still’ and to ‘move away from the stadium’.
Trains and public transport moving away from the stadium has also been stopped, with pedestrians being told to move away on foot.
The 14,000 capacity TUI-Arena, which was hosting German pop band Sähne Mannheims, has also been evacuated, according to various reports.
