The reason for this is a photo with the stadium and spectators in front of it as a possible target. The picture was posted on the X platform on Friday evening and the author(s) are said to be close to the terrorist organization Islamic State.
As a spokesman for the Munich police told the German Press Agency on Saturday, the police and the State Criminal Police Office had intensively evaluated the photo that night and came to the clear conclusion that there were no concrete findings of danger. The portal “t-online” and “Bild” had previously reported on it.
Increased presence of emergency services
The spokesman emphasized that the game would take place as planned, but that the presence of emergency services would be increased. In a top game in this category, 300 to 500 people are normally deployed. “We are now increasing that number,” he said. It is not yet known exactly how many officers will be on duty in and around the stadium. FC Bayern said they were in contact with the police.
The terrorist organization Islamic State recently claimed responsibility for the attack on a concert hall near Moscow. At least 144 people were killed in the incident.
