FROM A WINNING GAME TO A SOCCER DREAM: ANDRÉS SPECIAL EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP JOURNEY

“To the left, to the right, to Dortmund for the European Championship semi-final!”

André and his father Markus experienced an unforgettable evening of soccer at the 2024 European Championship semi-finals in Dortmund. As big soccer fans, they were able to experience the unique atmosphere of the tournament up close.

Even before the match, the atmosphere in Dortmund was electric. The city was bathed in a sea of orange as thousands of Dutch fans filled the streets. Despite a brief rain shower before the start of the match, the anticipation could not be dampened.

At 21:00, the whistle blew at BVB Stadion Dortmund and the semi-final between the Netherlands and England began. The atmosphere in the stadium was breathtaking, with fans from both nations cheering their teams on loudly.

The game itself was a thriller. The Netherlands initially took the lead, but England fought their way back. In a thrilling finish, the Three Lions scored the decisive goal in the 90th minute to win 2:1.

It was a special premiere for André - his first international soccer match and a tournament match at the same time. “This is a memory of a lifetime!” he enthused after the game. The opportunity to share this experience with his father and do something good at the same time made the evening even more meaningful for him.

Father and son enjoyed every minute in the stadium and were thrilled by the atmosphere. The energy of the fans, the excitement of the game and the joy of experiencing it together made the evening an unforgettable experience.

With this exciting soccer experience under their belts, André and Markus are now looking forward to the upcoming meet & greet with Oliver Kahn. This is a really great opportunity for the two soccer enthusiasts to talk to an absolute legend.
