The Salzburg plant for the Champions League hit against Chelsea
The Champions League hit against Chelsea also wants to be successful for Dietrich Mateschitz. However, there will be no minute’s silence for the recently deceased Mateschitz.
Austria’s soccer champions Red Bull Salzburg “found out with great sadness about the death of Dietrich Mateschitz”. The club announced this on Sunday via Twitter. However, the closest relatives ask for the desire to refrain from great grief, said a spokesman for the APA. They want to comply with this, which is why there will probably not be a moment of mourning before the next games of the “bulls”.
Instead it will be played before kick-off on Tuesday (from 6.45 p.m. in the Sport24 live ticker) give a “Minute of Gratitude” with applause in memory of the late Red Bull founder.
“We are thinking back on a great visionary and person to whom we feel great gratitude for everything he has made possible for us as a club. Now more than ever we see it as our responsibility to continue his life’s work and his vision together with Red Bull in his spirit,” said the official statement of the club, which thanks to the support of Red Bull GmbH von Mateschitz has won 13 national championship titles and most recently is a regular guest in the Champions League group stage.
“Minute of Gratitude” also in Formula 1 and MotoGP
Motorsport also thought of the Red Bull founding father. At the US Grand Prix in Austin, instead of a minute of mourning, a clapping minute of gratitude was celebrated.
